subject: The echolist is a mockery

Greetings Wilfred!

 WvV>   "echolist is a mockery my ass!

 WvV>>> BNL.ALGEMEEN

 WvV>>> This is an obvious fake,

 RW>> On the contrary, this echo is in distribution here.

 WvV> I don't believe you.

That makes us even, I don't believe that your saying the echolist is a
mockery.

 WvV> Which nodes do you distribute the area to?

First things first, it isn't an area, it's an echo.

The distribution of it is a private matter between me and the downlinks
who subsribe to it. If any of them wish to reveal that their a downlink,
then they speak for themselves.

 WvV>>> I was asked to stop doing this, and even threatened to be removed
 WvV>>> from fidonet if I didn't stop updating this "area".

 RW>> By whom, Vlist or Dossche? Since there is nothing in P4 that can be
 RW>> used to threaten your nodelisting, someone was talking through his
 RW>> hat and you were fool enough to believe it.

 WvV> The threat was made by mr. Ben Ritchey, the echolist "keeper"
 WvV> himself. And why do you think I believed him?

No idea why, since there is nothing he can do to oust you from the
nodelist. His echolist is a private system that is governed by himself,
(not P4 or anyone else) yet he can't do much of anything besides filing a
policy complaint for technical reasons. Since the only person who could do
anything about a PC against you is your NC (Oh, that's you isn't it)
and your RC...why do I know a complaint isn't a threat to your listing?

Because Vlist will reject the complaint out of hand. And so will Dossche
if it came to that.


    Have a day!
