-> not too many people use QWK anyways.

Yes, but, It also makes BW packets and there seems to be a loyal
following for BW FWIW. You see T.J. IMO You guys got the best of both
worlds if You implement something like that. I am not pushing You, but
You guys with Renegade as with Telegard have a great msging system. Ease
of navigation through msg bases and msgs, Don't be offended, but Tg just
a bit better due to some additional choices while reading. If a newbie
or an Old timer can't navigate Your software, then they won't do much
of anything. I am just afraid not enough people are exposed to RG. For
offline, BW would be a great compliment for the system. I see so many
people say, oh, offline is dead.. It is a lot lot less than what it was,
but I think that is for a reason. Most who complain, in my observation,
are Synchronet sysops. Being one, I can see why. I have never seen a msg
system so hard to navigate. It's just weird. I was raised on TG/RG, and
appreciate there navigation. And that includes the fact You can put up
an RG menu in Sync, but it is still not RG and the way rg handles msgs.
BW would just enhance the system, and encourage what small amount of
users who are left, to use it. That may not matter, it's just my 2 cents
which aren't worth a penny. 8-)                                       

Have a good one!
Mike
