Compuserve is a multiuser networked Pay by Hour service. But this can
|
|
be beat. At current rates, CIS (Compuserve) charges $6.50 for 300 baud
|
|
and $12.75 for 1200/2400 baud, 9600 can only be accessed by Hardwired
|
|
clients. Thus you see the need for this file. At the time this was
|
|
written, all information in this file was correct. Enough of this, on
|
|
to the file.
|
|
|
|
Logging on to Compuserve
|
|
------------------------
|
|
In order to logon to CIS you need one of the following.
|
|
1) A Telenet, Tymnet, Or CIS Port
|
|
2) A Credit Card
|
|
3) Above the IQ of a houseplant
|
|
That is all you need, I know for some of you the 3rd one is tough, but
|
|
try. Ok, you have all this, call your local port, logon to CIS, then
|
|
you should get a [User ID:] Prompt, type [177000,5000], this is the Ziff
|
|
PCMagnet User Id. Now, if you entered it correctly, then you should get
|
|
the [Password:] Prompt, at This type [Pc*Magnet]. You will next be given
|
|
a Welcome Message, then, you will get yet another Prompt. It should ask
|
|
you for your Agreement Number, type [Z10D8810]. That is the end of the
|
|
prompts. Here's where the IQ of above a houseplant comes into play.
|
|
You now have to think. It will ask you various questions, ranging from
|
|
your country to your Social Security number. Answer them however you
|
|
want, but I wouldn't use your real info. If you want the second password
|
|
(Needed to access some things), you will have to give an address where
|
|
you can drop by and pick it up. Some ideas are sending to your neighbors,
|
|
but use your last name, it will end up at your house. This is safe, I
|
|
have used it. Or you can rent a Post Office box for about 6 months.
|
|
Once you have done all this, and answer the questions, and read the
|
|
propoganda, you will see [Entering PCMagnet]. You are done.
|
|
|
|
So what do I do Now?
|
|
--------------------
|
|
Ok, if you get this far, you have the IQ of above your fern. You can
|
|
go one of two places, CIS or PCMagnet (Where you are now). You can
|
|
stay in PCMagnet, but there isn't much there. So, I would type [Go Cis]
|
|
This will bring you to Compuserve. Once on CIS, you can do many thing,
|
|
ranging from downloading files, to real time chat on forums to online
|
|
games. Next, I will list some interesting places to go.
|
|
|
|
Where do I go?
|
|
--------------
|
|
There are alot on interesting places to go on Compuserve. There are
|
|
some places that you can't access without a second password, so that
|
|
must be attained to get on CB. But you can goto the forums, the
|
|
games, and alot of other things. I will list some places that I like
|
|
to go.
|
|
[Go Rocknet] will bring you to a rather nice forum that is populated
|
|
by some very nice people. It has confrences at 7am till
|
|
9am (Breakfast Club), at 12pm till 1pm (Lunch Bunch),
|
|
and from around 10pm till 1am. I can be found in this
|
|
forum alot.
|
|
[Go Hsx100] will bring you to the Human Sexuality Forum, but it's
|
|
not what you think, they are very interesting people
|
|
that hang around here. The Confrence's there are from
|
|
around 10pm till about 4am. They last along time.
|
|
These are just my favorites, but if you type [Go Forums], it will
|
|
give you a list of forums that you can Hang around on. There are
|
|
some things to look out for on CIS.
|
|
|
|
Some sights you will see
|
|
------------------------
|
|
There are some things to look out for on CIS. You must be careful
|
|
when you see one of these things. They are on the look out for US.
|
|
If you see a [70000,xxxx] id, that is a Security Officer, they will
|
|
deleate you if you are not careful. If you see a [70006,xxxx] that
|
|
is a Wizard, he can also deleate you. They some times do not deleate
|
|
you they just /gag you, that means you can't be seen, you are not in
|
|
the userlist. This only applys to Confrence and CB. *LooLoo* is a
|
|
person to be careful not to see, she is a mother fucker. She is a
|
|
powerful person, she can /gag you on any forum, but SHE CAN NOT
|
|
deleate you, only a security account can. Her user id is [70006,522]
|
|
so if you see that ID, be careful. I have talked to her voice on
|
|
several occassions, she is fun to call and bother about CIS, if you
|
|
want her number, it is [614/764-2302] Her real name is Patricia
|
|
Phelps. There is also another not so nice person on Compuserve , he
|
|
is Dan Piskur, he is the Head of Security. He uses the Handles,
|
|
[Dan'l or Ghost] he CAN deleate you on sight.
|
|
|
|
