TN> PLEASE DO NOT DOUBLE POST ALL YOUR MESSAGES.

TN> I PAY STD RATES TO RECEIVE THIS ECHO.

TN> If there is one thing that really gets me MAD is people who double
TN> post and or post a message to the same echo from different BBS's.

TN> Maybe I should start sending accounts out to people who do it.
TN> It is all well and good for people who live in cities who can
TN> post and receive mail at local rates. I have to poll for my
TN> mail at a minimum distance of 1400Klm and object to multiple
TN> copies of the same message appearing on my system.

Corse you could try actually calculating what that dupe
did actually cost you Terry and realise that there aint
a whole lot of point raving on about such a trivial cost.

And in some circumstance with YOU organising yourself right, it
can actually cost you LESS to get your mail than those who get
it for a local call charge too. Even with the occasional dupe.

TN> If the problem is within the BBS you are using or you are having
TN> trouble using the BBS software, I suggest that you get some help.

Or tell you what you can do with your preaching |-)
