- Pay attention to where you are. Channel #amiga on UNDERNET is a secret channel
- it is not on any lists. It was created as a way for some serious types
- (more like elitez) to avoid the clutter and contaimination of EFFNET's #amiga.
-
- Of course if you walk in and start asking questions, all op's (which as
- you noticed is damn near everyone) will fight over who bans you for the day.
