So I was coming from the angle after I read your message that said "I havent
done this, because I'm doing that". You've said that a couple of times now.

Doing "this" could be something fun that you want to do, but you cant get to
it, because of all the "that" things that you need to do. Running a network has
 a lot of "that" things, and in FSX they all depend on you. Joining games,
getting connected, debugging (the infrastructure) problems, etc.

I know one of the "this" you wanted to do is build these servers you picked up
a while ago - so I'm guessing that has been/was pre-empted by "that" things
related to FSX and "that" things related to Avons personal life outside of
BBSing.

Thus the downside is, folks are waiting on you, the chores build up and it
wears away at the fun.

So if there were 2 or 3 or 4 "Avons", then things might get done quicker (thus
the end user experience benefits), and you get more time for "this".

And when it gets to the size of FN (I always think big) - then you can look
back and say - I started "this".

(And "this" is a friendlier place to be.)
