I'm a live and let live kind of guy, even if I don't like something it has a right to be there and not be destroyed just because I don't like what they do and how they do it. years ago i helped this one guy(one of many) setup his ftn network, using help another long term sysop gave me. I gave him a lot of ideas and help. i ran a site with services and he essentially copied me by using some of the same scripts i did and he edited the code to make it seem like it was his. He stopped being my friend and acted like he didn't even know me. I let god sort it out and in the end he is gone and I am still here. i did yank my services but that's because It was a lot of work sometimes and some things that i offered were dated. so people can go play in avon's sandbox. maybe that's what they want. he's protecting them from the bad things like politics and religion! --- þ Synchronet þ ::: BBSES.info - free BBS services ::: .
