|
|
Well, I personally have not been working as dilligently on PuD as I should be.
|
|||
|
|
I don't really think Baphomet has been, either. However, other things happen
|
|||
|
|
which all should know of because "Ignorance is not innocence, but sin."
|
|||
|
|
Anyway, apart from one Maximus sysop's fit of dumbass which will be mentioned
|
|||
|
|
later, there have been neat new things brewing up in N. Al. No, really. Every
|
|||
|
|
now and then something interesting happens here.

|
|||
|
|
Yhea, it sounds interesting. I, as well as Baphomet <I assume> have been
|
|||
|
|
invited to participate in a local-based newsletter which is dedicated to
|
|||
|
|
objective reviewing and concluding of local BBS's. Novel idea? No, but somehow
|
|||
|
|
this has caught my interest, and I have a lot of neat ideas. Believe it or not,
|
|||
|
|
I can write objectively quite well; I just choose not to when I don't want to.
|
|||
|
|
Get it?

Digital Saint has been doing some strange things with his bulleting board. If
|

he keeps on modifying his BBS like this, he will eventually revert, crack, and
|
|||
|

show us just how sad he is by modding his WWiV to be exactly like VBBS.

- Basketball Hoops
|
|||
|
|
Earlier this week, there was a small riot which has been attributed to by
|
|||
|
|
police the occurance of a basketball hoop being torn down. The hoop was located
|
|||
|
|
at Custom Audio, and was built to keep all of the "I-don't-feel-like-solderin'-
|
|||
|
|
cuz-my-back-hurts" vermin busy.
|
|||
|
|
It has been said that the hoop was indeed very dangerous, as were the matches
|
|||
|
|
performed at the shop. A record 1203 serious lacerations had been recorded
|
|||
|
|
in the last week since the hoop was constructed.

number? I was just calling anywhere in Waco's area code, trying to

|

|

urgent; I need to speak with Jesus if he is there.

Lady: Huh?

<EFBFBD> The PuDbench
|
|||
|
|
The PuDbench looks pretty K_RaDiC00L so far, but you never can tell. It is
|
|||
|
|
obvious that this program is well on its way to fracturing the entire image of
|
|||
|
|
benchmarks as we know it. It will make everything else obselete.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<EFBFBD> The DT... What?
|
|||
|
|
Damn, it has been too long. We need to hurry up and throw that thing up on a
|
|||
|
|
BBS somewhere. It should be out ...soon. <?>

|
<EFBFBD> Wildcat Flaming
|
|||
|
|
Recently, I was fortunate enough to get involved in an argument of personal
|
|||
|
|
matters with a local Maximus sysop on a Wildcat board. I just figured I would
|
|||
|
|
mention this, because the outcome is sort of amusing.
|
|||
|
|
All of this took place on the ByteSwap, which is the board where all of
|
|||
|
|
Decatur just sort of sits around and waits for somebody else to upload. When
|
|||
|
|
there's nowhere else to call, you call ByteSwap. When there's somewhere else to
|
|||
|
|
call, you call there first and then call ByteSwap.
|
|||
|
|
Anyway, there was this one BBS I used to call sort of often, because there was
|
|||
|
|
nothing much better to do. Suddenly one day, my life took a drastic turn and I
|
|||
|
|
up and stopped calling all together <I woke up>. It seems as though the sysop
|
|||
|
|
must of been upset by this, because he had pretty much lost contact with
|
|||
|
|
whatever it was he was trying to accomplish. Apart from this, I can conclude
|
|||
|
|
also that he was put up to some flaming by his VBBS friends, because flaming
|
|||
|
|
over my stopping of calling his board would be just TOO sad.
|
|||
|
|
It all started in the flaming sub, where I had months before left with the
|
|||
|
|
false idea that it would come back to what it used to be. He pitched his fits
|
|||
|
|
there for a little while, but he soon saw how I wasn't really participating. I
|
|||
|
|
tried to end the flame immediately, explaining my decision to leave, on a real-
|
|||
|
|
name basis. I guess that hurt his petty feelings.
|
|||
|
|
Soon enough, I was confronted in the general sub, and carried on the flame
|
|||
|
|
throughout a couple of messages. Soon I had had enough, and I carried the
|
|||
|
|
argument back in to the flaming sub and shut him the hell up on a real-name
|
|||
|
|
basis yet again.
|
|||
|
|
The ending results were sort of like this:
|
|||
|
|
- The flamer was pushed out of the general conference with his idiocy
|
|||
|
|
- The flamer was reprimanded by the Co-Sysop
|
|||
|
|
- The flamer was embarrassed in both subs
|
|||
|
|
- The flamer scurried away with his tail between his legs
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Don't let this happen to you. Take these helpful hints in to consideration
|
|||
|
|
when you intend to flame.
|
|||
|
|
1> Know your opponent well
|
|||
|
|
Never, EVER flame somebody who has proven themselves as one of the more
|
|||
|
|
aggressive "slammers" on that BBS.
|
|||
|
|
2> Never flame without respect or status
|
|||
|
|
Don't call up some board that you are not very familiar with and start a
|
|||
|
|
flame with one of the higher-calibur users. You will only get attacked
|
|||
|
|
from all sides. Also, you will not be taken as seriously.
|
|||
|
|
3> Do not carry a flame on the general subs
|
|||
|
|
On too many BBS's today, there are specified places for flaming. Do your
|
|||
|
|
dirtywork there. If the board doesn't have a flame sub, go somewhere else.
|
|||
|
|
4> Don't count on your prey to be as timid as they seem
|
|||
|
|
The flamer in this particular case had never seen some of the older stuff.
|
|||
|
|
He was not familiar with what I had done in the past. Just because the user
|
|||
|
|
seems to lay low when you arrive doesn't mean he can't make you the fool.
|
|||
|
|
5> Don't go for the jugular immediately
|
|||
|
|
Everybody has a weak point; something you can bring up that will really ruin
|
|||
|
|
their day. However, this should not be the FIRST thing you address. The
|
|||
|
|
jugular<s> should always be saved for last, in case of a tailspin.
|
|||
|
|
6> Don't think that you are doing anybody a favor
|
|||
|
|
Most all flames are begun by some idiot who pictures himself as a knight in
|
|||
|
|
shining armor, arriving to save all of the other users from this one terrible
|
|||
|
|
person. Never take this attitude, for it often proves to be quite the
|
|||
|
|
opposite. Don't expect any respect for you to arrive on a BBS before you do.
|
|||
|
|
7> Never crack on typographical errors
|
|||
|
|
Cracking on typographical errors show just how lacking you are in the "facts"
|
|||
|
|
department of your premeditated flame. It is quite easy for everybody to
|
|||
|
|
tell the difference between typos and ignorance, so don't dwell on error.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Hopefully, these tips will keep me from making any of you fools look even
|
|||
|
|
worse in the furture as easily. Use them with care.
