Introducing CatNET, a new locally "echoed" message network.
CatNET is one of the newer entrants into the world of message
base echos. CatNET was formed not as a replacement to the large
National networks, but as an easier alternative.
CatNET operates under any QWK compatible mail system, such as
TNet for Wildcat, QNet and RNet for PCBoard. Other BBS software
can be also be used, provided a suitable QWK mail tosser is
available for it.
CatNET charges NO membership fees or yearly dues. Participating
systems only pay for their phone calls for mail transfers.
The only required conference are:
CatNET Common - Public Conference for all users;
NetAdmin - Private Network Sysops only;
NetLine - Private for Network Sysops and Co-sysops.

Revised: Sunday 12 April 1992
CatNet is a Network of Bulletin Board Services that share common
message conferences, which are echoed between these Bulletin
Boards via the Hub. This Network is a voluntary service provided
by participating System Operators, their respective Bulletin
Board Systems, and the CatNet Hub.
Here are the current rules and regulation concerning user
participation in all Network conferences and Network messages.
1. Flaming or similar personal attacks on this Network are
prohibited. Derogatory racial, ethnic, or other such remarks are
not allowed.
2. No abusive or offensive language is allowed; and no abusive,
offensive or lewd graphics are allowed.
3. Real names must be used. No ALIASES or HANDLES are allowed in
any Network Conferences.
4. No illegal activities will be tolerated, including but not
limited to PIRACY, PHREAKING, or other CRIMINAL ACTIVITIES.
5. Messages on this network are PUBLIC and accessible to every user
on every node of this network.
PRIVATE messages are available only in the USER-USER conference.
While every effort is made by the network software to correctly
route and protect such private messages, the Network disclaims
all responsibility should these measures fail.
Network Sysops have the ability to monitor ALL messages routed
through their nodes.
6. Messages may be of any length if the matter contained within the
message warrants it. Excessive quoting is not permitted.
7. Messages should be contained within suitable conferences that
address the subject thread.
8. The use of ANSI color signatures is permitted in all Network
conferences provided they do not take up the bulk of a message.
ANSI BBS advertisements are allowed in the BBS_Ads conference.
All other ANSI screens are allowed ONLY in the ANSI/Graphics
conference.
9. Any user found to be in violation of any Network rule will be
issued a warning, and/or on the judgement of the CatNet
Administrator, be prevented from accessing any or all Network
conferences from ALL Network nodes.
10. No warranties expressed or implied, are made by the Network or
by any participating nodes regarding the contents or subject
matter contained within Network messages.
