- We have had newsgroups here for two weeks, now. One of those weeks, I was away,
- so I have not been able to get much into using tin yet, and the help does not

- immediately contact the one responsible for installing tin on unix1.

- I had already been on IRC a long time before this, via goonsquad. On this date,

- : I do hope you are proud when that happens.
-
- Shocked by the number of sessions? Well, we did have a few problems getting
- irc to work, and after that, quite a few visits were done to check wether
- or not certain people were on. If they weren't on, logout immediately.

- I suppose the average user know about this file? I didn't.

- I cannot see how Glurg breaks any of these rules.

- : On the wery best, your school may loose it's network acess.
-
- On which grounds?
-
- : The net is not a right, but a service.

- : You may be a graduate in 3 years time, by then I'll still be around and

- It's difficult to interpret if this "one person" is just "one person", or

- : (Say NO to unattended bots)
-
- Some unattended bots are of good use. Some not. If you really hate Glurg so
- much, why don't you kill him and leave a message in my mailbox? You have the
- power to do that.

- : :DS
- :
- Most probably all of them but one. When I programme my bot, I don't kill it,
- just tell it to reset, and voila, Glurg has killed his old programme and
- loaded the new script. Also, getting him to run in the background was a pain,
- but eventually it worked.
