Man! I used to love to play Lord in RIP! About the only time I ever used it. 
I ran Renegade with Rip menus Years ago, but never had much of a call for it.

It's odd, in this point a click world most people are in now. I am suprised 
when I think of it... Why RIP isn't one of the factors in Saving BBS'S or is 
it the fact there are not many RIP Terms out there. I dunno. The biggest 
problem I see with newbies, who weren't around in the heyday, is that they 
don't want to type. They want to point and click. Why Rip isn't or wouldn't 
help them.... I dunno...

Have a good One!
Mike
