Help Displays this help information.
List Accounts Allows you to view a brief listing of other user accounts.
This is good for obtaining the spelling of a user name in
case you'd like to use the Transfer Time feature.
Deposit Time Allows you to deposit time into your account for use at a
later date. The Sysop defines how much time a user may
deposit per day. If you attempt to exceed this amount,
RATS will tell you about it.
Also, you may not deposit your full time remaining balance.
You may deposit all but 5 minutes of your online time or
until maximum defined deposit is reached (whichever comes
first).
Withdraw Time Allows you to withdraw time from your account. The Sysop
defines how much time a user may withdraw per day. If you
attempt to withdraw more than this amount, RATS will tell
you about it.
Also, you may not withdraw an amount of time that would
allow you to over-step an upcoming System Event. RATS
will keep track of this as well.
Transfer Time Allows you to transfer time from your account to another
user's account. This time is drawn out of your current
balance, NOT your online time remaining. The Sysop defines
how much time you can transfer per day.
Any user who has time transferred to their account, will
receive a brief message the next time they logon informing
them who transferred the time, and how much time was
transferred.
Deposit K-bytes Allows you to deposit kilobytes for use at a later date.
If the maximum depositable k-bytes are defined at 200,
and you have not already downloaded any of this K, then
200 k-bytes will be available for deposit. If you have
already downloaded some kilobytes, then the maximum that
you can deposit will be the maximum defined value minus
the number of kilobytes you have already downloaded on
that day.
Withdraw K-bytes Allows you to withdraw kilobytes that were previously
saved.
Transfer K-Bytes Allows you to transfer bytes from your account to another
user's account. K-Bytes are drawn out of your current
balance, so you must havve K-Bytes stored in the bank.
The Sysop defines how much time you can transfer per day.
Any user who has bytes transferred to their account, will
receive a brief message the next time they logon informing
them who transferred the bytes, and how many K-Bytes were
transferred.
Purchase K-bytes Allows you to purchase kilobytes with time you have
previously banked. The exchange rate and daily number
of K-bytes you can purchase in a day are defined by the
Sysop.
Display BankBook You may view all of your transactions for the previous
seven days.
Credit Department If you wish to Borrow Time or K-Bytes, that the SysOp has
these features enabled, you may borrow a predefined amount
of Time or KBytes from the bank. There is a one time
interest charge, defined by the SysOp, and it is added to
the amount of your loan. Example, say interest rate is 10%
and you borrow 100 minutes. You will owe the bank 110 min.
If you owe the bank Time or KBytes, then it will show up
as a number in brackets beside your balance on the main
screen. You may Pay Back the loan from this menu as well.
