NH>> the Internet. 

SN> I don't know about having given it up, but I've seen quite

How many? 

SN> but to keep the same FidoNet "flavor". 

What flavor would that be, hmmm? 

SN> And moderating is a *much* simpler matter. :-) 

Ah yes ... the siren song of abosolute power to delete people

the days when they could just delete users (the good old days).
