|
|
I would like to introduce myself, you might have wondered who I was, or what
|
|
relation I had to ATI. Not much actually, as a friend of Prime anarchist's and
|
|
as a fellow telecom weirdo, I saw and helped edit some of the issues (and lose
|
|
a few of them to the magical wonder of the disk god, only to be resurected
|
|
using the help of the disk sector editor ...Number 9....Number 9.... ).
|
|
I am not politically active, I am not socially active either. I proscribe to
|
|
no particular ideology,philosophy, or religion. I simply observe things that I
|
|
experience and try to understand them objectively (or subjectively ,depending
|
|
on what mood I am in). You will be seeing alot of me in upcoming issues. I
|
|
hope to display pros and cons of differant beliefs. I wish to warn you though,
|
|
I have one simple belief.
|
|
1) Its my undying opinion that all
|
|
people can do lots of damage to
|
|
everything, armed with the faith
|
|
that what they are doing is for
|
|
the greater good.
|
|
|
|
At first I didn't want this job. But in the end Prime bribed me, drugged me,
|
|
and finally convinced me using the help of some girls, a goat, and a vat of
|
|
vanilla pudding.
|
|
If you want to send me questions, drugs, marriage proposals, bomb threats
|
|
or small furry animals by the name of Fred . Please send them to address
|
|
located at front of this file. Please include your name (or reasonable
|
|
facsimile) with any question or opinion so I will know who to insult, praise,
|
|
or forbid my children from marrying

|

where you are right now,

only much better."

ONCE AGAIN MY SPACE IS GIVEN AWAY
|
|
TO THE HAPPY HACKER(412)
|
|
|
|
Ever call a commercial chat line and hear a rather large number of male
|
|
callers revolve around one or two female callers? Ever wonder about maybe one
|
|
rather outgoing female on the line and why she was sooo friendly?
|
|
The reason is simple. Usually in these situations the one outgoing,
|
|
slightly seductive female voice you hear belongs to a woman who is paid to
|
|
monitor these chat lines, but is also required to double as an actress, to
|
|
pretend to be a regular caller on the line, and to coax male callers, through
|
|
any methods needed, to stay on the line longer.
|
|
Here, I give you an ATI first. Here I will publish exerpts from an employ-
|
|
ees' manual which is distributed to female employees of a chat line company
|
|
which operates chat lines all over the US, and abroad. Read on..
|
|
|
|
CHARACHTER PROFILE
|
|
|
|
ALWAYS choose your opening charachter before opening your key!
|
|
|
|
Your voice tone and charachter should match. Don't change names without
|
|
changing your voice.If you're working with another monitor, you should listen
|
|
for key phrases. Your charachter profile should be AUTHENTIC. You should
|
|
remember EVERYTHING about your charachter profile. This includes voice tone,
|
|
charachter's description and anything else you may have said about your
|
|
charachter to a caller. We recommend that you keep a notebook of charachters
|
|
you play.
|
|
|
|
Examples of opening phrases:
|
|
1. Hi! My name is Peter Rabbit. 2. What's Happening!
|
|
3. Anybody out there? I'm sooooo lonely
|
|
4. Hey, Hey, Hey!
|
|
5. Help! Help!
|
|
6. Yo Baby, Yo Baby, Yo!
|
|
7. Hey, What's hoppin'?
|
|
8. I'm looking for a new love..
|
|
9. Yo! Anybody there?
|
|
10. Good Morning!
|
|
11. What's it to ya..
|
|
12. Helloooooooo..
|
|
13. I'm going to sing if you don't talk
|
|
to me (then sing if they don't)
|
|
14. Hey this is (Your charachter name),
|
|
Im looking for (Anybody), what am I
|
|
going to do??
|
|
|
|
INTERACTING WITH ANOTHER MONITOR
|
|
|
|
This technique takes concentration. You must key in on certain phrases and
|
|
build either toward it, around it, or take it somewhere else.If you change
|
|
directions altogether, you must be aggressive.
|
|
|
|
Interacting examples:
|
|
|
|
If you're talking on the line with three men and another monitor enters and
|
|
says, "Help, help!", if the callers don't respond, you would say: "What's
|
|
that? Wait, did you hear that?"
|
|
|
|
Monitor #1: What's wrong?
|
|
Monitor #2: My husband tied me to the bed!
|
|
Monitor #1: What! Is he a maniac?
|
|
Monitor #2: Yes! I am afraid he is going to kill me!
|
|
Monitor #1: Wait a minute, lady. How did you dial here?
|
|
Monitor #2: (Crying and sobbing loudly) I dialed with my nose!
|
|
|
|
|
|
WHEN TO TALK EXPLICITLY AND WHEN NOT TO
|
|
|
|
Talking seductively requires a certain amount of finesse. You can talk this
|
|
way without ever having to say anything sexual. There are different techniques
|
|
that you can use. We do not want to come across as telephone whores!
|
|
There are some key phrases that will let you know when and if the client
|
|
wants to talk explicitly.
|
|
|
|
Seductive Examples:
|
|
1. What are you wearing?
|
|
2. Are you in bed?
|
|
3. Are you alone?
|
|
4. Do you like to talk dirty?
|
|
5. Do you like sex?
|
|
6. What do you do for fun?
|
|
7. Are you playing with yourself?
|
|
8. What do you like a woman/man to do for you in bed?
|
|
|
|
These phrases will help you to know when to talk expilicitly about sex. If
|
|
you start talking seductively and the caller hangs up, when he calls back,
|
|
change characters and DON'T talk seductively. When you do realize that the
|
|
caller is seeking that type of conversation, select the appropriate technique.
|
|
|
|
|
|
WHEN TO AND WHEN NOT TO DISCONNECT A
|
|
CALLER
|
|
|
|
1. ALWAYS DISCONNECT CHILDREN OFF ALL ADULT LINES without being rude. However,
|
|
always mention they should call the TEEN line.
|
|
2. If a caller is talking sexually on the TEEN line, disconnect them AFTER
|
|
mentioning they should call an adult line.
|
|
3. Do not disconnect callers because you do not like them. You are being
|
|
paid to talk to the clients, not to have personal likes or dislikes for them.
|
|
4. Sometimes hecklers are fun. They brighten up the lines. Use your
|
|
instincts and common sense, to decide whether it is appropriate at the time.
|
|
|
|
Example: Heckler
|
|
A person tries to take down a phone number and someone is shouting or singing
|
|
while they are trying to do so, or someone is calling a name over and over,
|
|
disrupting all conversation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
VOICE QUALITY
|
|
|
|
Charachters should be full in every aspect. Practice your voices until they
|
|
are perfected. Concentrate on your voice control, voice tone, pitch, and also
|
|
practice changing your pitch from high to low, and your voice tone from soft to
|
|
caorseness, if possible.
|
|
For those who have difficulty changing voices, try to think of it as
|
|
singing, working with the scale: "Do, Re, Mi, Fa, So, La, Ti, Do".
|
|
Change your voice any way possible- High, Low, Soft, Loud, Coarse,
|
|
Trembling, Squeaky, with accents..... etc.- ANY WAY YOU LIKE- Just be
|
|
different.
|
|
|
|
TRAINING SUMMARY
|
|
|
|
At the end of this training program, each monitor should be confident that
|
|
he/she could have any customer calling back as many times as possible.
|
|
You've learned every technique available about how to control your calls to
|
|
the point that you know who's calling back and who isn't. You want EVERYONE to
|
|
CALL BACK.
|
|
Monitors who aren't able to get call backs will need to work harder at their
|
|
conversation. Remember, the final goal is to get call backs. caller not
|
|
responding to your conversation quickly enough, get out of that charachter, and
|
|
try another. You are selling a phone conversation, so your sales pitch is very
|
|
important.
|
|
|
|
|
|
****END OF TRAINING MANUAL EXERPTS*****
|
|
|
|
Neat, huh? Many of the women you hear on these chat lines are simply
|
|
paidto keep men on the line. Paid to feign interest in the callers, paid to
|
|
coax male callers into staying on the line and calling back in the future. And
|
|
yes, expected to talk very explicitly and even participate in phone sex and
|
|
"domination" routines with the male callers, if the callers request it.
|
|
In our age of crass commercialism, it's not surprising to see yet another
|
|
form of human exchange, like the concept of a simple chat line, become
|
|
prostituted in this fashion.
|
|
Ah, the frontiers of free enterprise...

new, except that we here at ATI all miss Prime Anarchist very much.
|
|
|
|
And also, a few things. As most of you know, a very well-known hacker by the
|
|
handle of Doc Telecom (formerly Laser) got busted in the San Jose area. It's
|
|
uncertain as to what his fate will be, and I'm concerned.
|
|
|
|
I'm also concerned about what's going to happen in the hack/phreak world
|
|
these days. With the recent development of the virus that spread through- out
|
|
many computers in the nation, it seems that the media's attention will soon be
|
|
turned full force on telecom enthusiasts. It's been rumored that the 804
|
|
bridge has been taped and will be broadcasted this week (week ending 11-19-88)
|
|
on ABC's show "20/20" as part of a story on hackers/phreakers. I predict a
|
|
negative image will be portrayed, as usual. This will create a backlash of
|
|
even more negative public opinion, and perhaps even more "crackdown" efforts on
|
|
the part of the authorities and security personnel.
|
|
|
|
By the way, it's late Sunday night, and so far I've seen 2 talk shows regarding
|
|
computers, mainframes, viruses..and hackers were even mentioned.
|
|
|
|
In any event, watch "20/20" this week. Tape it if you can. Somehow, I get the
|
|
feeling that there is truth in this rumor, and I am sure a great deal of
|
|
discussion will result.
|
|
|
|
Opinions? Comments? Email me on The Phoenix Project: 512-441-3088.
|

P.S. If I'm wrong about "20/20", I need a volunteer to help me wipe the egg off
|
|
my face. Heh..
