You have been on here? And you have evidence I condone Piracy?????? Pretty weird...So I guess we are guilty in America, BEFORE we have evidence?? Second of all, believe or not, there are laws protecting me and my system, just like it protects you...Before you go shooting your mouth open about "what you know" why don't you find out first hand....And NO, you cannot "bullshit" me to getting access...So be sure to leave this on Usenet...I have ears and eyes all over (I happen to be on Usenet) Thanks for the advertisement and 'notoriety'! Also, noone has tried to log on from Usenet, either.... By the way, attempting to gain access to a private BBS through illegal or false pretenses is AGAINST the law (as you, should know, Dan) ...Shall I send some of my buddies over to examine your system??? Also, funny how no one asks how you got my number???? you grabbing some of that NASTY pirate wares??? OR did someone complain to ya....Call me sometine and we'll shoot the shit about the REAL WORLD...... You got my number..... --< End BBS capture >-- Before reading Bob's message I had no idea what the he!! this confused person was talking (typing ?) about. Now that I do know all I can say is perhaps the SYSOP of this Quartex HQ should take a course in reading and understanding ENGLISH ;-) Sneakers -- ___ Dan "Sneakers" Schein //// BERKS AMIGA BBS Sneakers Computing //// 80+ Megs of software & messages 2455 McKinley Ave. ___ //// 12/2400 Baud - 24 Hrs West Lawn, PA 19609 \\\\ //// 215/678-7691 \\\\//// {pyramid|rutgers|uunet}!cbmvax!heimat!sneakers
