What is it?
-----------
Adept Support Network (AdeptNet) is an open, easy-going

Board Systems.

What are the rules?
-------------------
1. You must use real names. This can be done in AdeptXBBS by
toggling the 'Require Real Names' flag in all the AdeptXBBS
message areas.
Exceptions: Adept_Chat - Handles ok.
2. All systems MUST be 300 baud or higher.
Sorry, no 110 baud here. :-)
3. Simple!
What does it cost?
------------------
The services we provide are free, however, the costs of maintaining the
system resources to provide quality mail services and file distributions
do cost us money. Some hubs and hosts may require a small fee to offset
their cost of calling long distance, others do not. If your hub/host
imposes some sort of Cost Reduction Plan, then that would be
considered your cost and donation to the network.
How do I join?
--------------
All you need to do is contact your local AdeptNet node for the latest
InfoPack and Application Kit. Freq'ing "AdeptNet" from any of the
following sites will also get you the latest AdeptNet InfoPack:
John Doran - 1:278/315
Julie Strietelmeier - 1:231/1320
Run the file APPGEN.EXE to automatically create a short text
file with vital information needed to apply. Once you have
completed the application, netmail the file created with your
information to your state host (preferably, if there is one),
or the Network Coordinator at 55:50/0, or upload it to
212-486-6281 or 812-342-6546.
If you know your state host's address, please send the
application to that address, the turn-around time is
much quicker that way.
Once your application is reviewed, you will be sent a node
number and nodelist via netmail in ZIP form. Or, if you
cannot be reached via netmail, we will try our best to send
it via your BBS. Please allow 7-10 days for your application
to be reviewed and a new node number assigned (we receive
them almost every day and it is sometimes difficult
to keep up), please be patient.
Thanks,
John Doran - AdeptNet Support Network Coordinator
