From the Jason Scott / TEXTFILES.COM Printout Collection
These are original linefeed printouts fed through a Optical Character
Recognition system, with hand-editing done afterwards to clean issues
with text rearrangement and OCR errors.
The printouts are from a collection dating from 1983-1985, and were
generally made on an Epson MX-80 Dot-Matrix printer connected to an
IBM PC-XT. The Bulletin Board Systems and other services were located
throughout the United States, and captured by Jason Scott, who can
attest to their authenticity.
Spelling errors, content and extraneous system information such as
prompts and menu items have been left untouched. Errors and other
artifacts of conversion to this format should be considered in
determining the validity or historical context of statements in these
printouts.

I for one would like to see somthing different-Lets face it,all the boards
may have different names and different themes to a certain extent, but basicly
they're all the same.The new Xanth,if what I hear is true,should be better than
most. As for BBS progs. Apple-Net is the best.

From: MAJOR TOM

Say, Mark, when did you join the MPG, the NDC, and the c.e.c.
simultaneously? You're going to be in hot water if you do something like that
again... Also, the backspaces and the text grafix are annoying to those of us
at 300 baud trying to do a quick newscan....
About the late-night calls- you basically don't post your number to everyone
and then say things that anger people.... No wonder you're getting late-night
phone calls.

Underground after your name and your phone will be ringing off the hook through
the night...)

Yes Mark you do have the right to voice your opinion on here, in fact I enjoy
it, I like to see a little difference on here...I don't agree with it.. but
thats beside the point... my point is
YOU AINT IN MPG... and I dont think you are in NDC... so don't leave those
letters by your name...or we will hunt you down and kill you..<heheh>

Perhaps if you just ignore him [Mark GleizerJ, maybe he'll go away. He's
obviously a misguided cretin looking for attention. So if you ignore him, he
may stop posting at all...
