The Apple Pirate's Guild came into being recently after a shortage of Apple
|
|||
|
|
warez came about. It seemed that the locate pirate boards were full of
|
|||
|
|
leaches. So two young soles (souls. Whatever) took it upon themselves to
|
|||
|
|
right all the wring and to cut off all the fucking leeches from the warez
|
|||
|
|
suppliers. So we, meaning Jezebel and myself, cracked out the idea of APG.
|
|||
|
|
Here's the concept.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
A network of BBS's and AE's will be established across the country with each
|
|||
|
|
having a section set off for APG. The main or home boards for the APG are
|
|||
|
|
Marin 80 TBBS, Minstrel's Gallery (Alfa III) and the soon-to-be APG Alfa III
|
|||
|
|
board that Jezebel will open as soon as he bothers to go get the hard drive
|
|||
|
|
that his dad promised to get him for Christmas.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
As of the end of 1986 there were rumored to be nine such boards, two being
|
|||
|
|
the above mentioned ones. The reason we are trying to get ones located all
|
|||
|
|
over the U.S. is very simple: Some of the best crackers and pirates do not
|
|||
|
|
phreak. By having tentacles all over the place the network can pick up games
|
|||
|
|
and distribute them all over the U.S.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Jezebel and I have talked about how to go about setting up the APG a great
|
|||
|
|
deal. Some of the basic ideas are these: Nobody has to pay to be in (we both
|
|||
|
|
hate the idea of paying to use a system or get warez since that is both the
|
|||
|
|
wrong attitude towards pirating and that we feel only dildo's would charge for
|
|||
|
|
something that will ultimately get them more games. We also feel that
|
|||
|
|
participation is a must. Leeches are not to be allowed. But do not be
|
|||
|
|
confused when I say that we both encourage the help and support with new
|
|||
|
|
recruits since we were all new at this at one point in time. Work with new
|
|||
|
|
people on the outside, but don't let them in until they have proven that they
|
|||
|
|
are APG material.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
And what is APG material, you ask. Well, we now have a system. When an APG
|
|||
|
|
system is established, all members on the system have zero (0) "points" (I hate
|
|||
|
|
that word but until I find a better sub it's what I'm gonna use). It is up to
|
|||
|
|
the sysop or whoever is in charge to monitor the uploads, rewarding users with
|
|||
|
|
either zero, one or two points for uploads, with zero points being either shit,
|
|||
|
|
old stuff, or stupid-ass educational games, one being for either okay games or
|
|||
|
|
stuff that is semi-old, and two being for stuff worth having.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
When you have entered the APG section you get a few nice options. You get to
|
|||
|
|
download any and all of the shit that people have been uploading free of charge
|
|||
|
|
(some systems will no doubt continue using the points system, with each upload
|
|||
|
|
getting a value and the uploaded getting 4 times that in download points).
|
|||
|
|
Also he should either call or phreak to either Marin 80 (preferable), or
|
|||
|
|
Jezebels' APG board (when it gets set up) so that his name can be added to the
|
|||
|
|
national listing that is distributed to the various APG boards.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
This national list will be updated often and uploaded to the sysops of the
|
|||
|
|
APG network, giving them the names of valid APG members. This keeps them, the
|
|||
|
|
members, from having to go through all that shit, if the sysop so chooses. We
|
|||
|
|
encourage the sysops to validate the members on the members list IF they call
|
|||
|
|
their board and show that they will be regulars, either by uploading or calling
|
|||
|
|
more than once a month.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
A list of APG boards will follow this file. We encourage those interested to
|
|||
|
|
call Marin 80 and leave me mail or Jezebel (he has an ! for a last name so it
|
|||
|
|
looks like this: Jezebel !). By doing so, we can tell you more. But when you
|
|||
|
|
do that be prepared to tell us from what board you heard about it, what it's
|
|||
|
|
number is (so we can call and verify it) who spread the news there (posted the
|
|||
|
|
message, uploaded this file, etc), and what you plan to contribute (what are
|
|||
|
|
your NEWEST warez, if you hack and if you phreak). Leave the message in the
|
|||
|
|
Email section (the <E> option).
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
And don't be assholes. Fill out the registration there with proper info.
|
|||
|
|
This way we can call you or mail you disks of new warez. Because if you turn
|
|||
|
|
out to be a dildo and either not answer the questions of lie, we will make damn
|
|||
|
|
sure that you will be cut from the network.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
But do call. Marin 80 is for DDD v4.0 files and Minstrel's Gallery is for
|
|||
|
|
ProPacker files, as will be Jezebels when he opens for business in a few
|
|||
|
|
days/weeks/months. And the sooner you call the sooner we get all the shit
|
|||
|
|
rolling.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
And while you're on Marin 80, read the bulletins. Many of them, almost all,
|
|||
|
|
are by me.
