* Renegade Bulletin Board Support Network (RGSNet)
* Quick Rules & Operation
Quick Rules:
============================================================================
1. You must use real names. This can be done in Renegade by toggling the
'R'eal names flag to 'on' in all the RGSNet message areas.
Exceptions: RGS_DOORS - Handles ok, must sign with Real Name.
RGS_CHAT - Handles ok.
RGS_BRE50 - Handles ok.
2. You must use a front-end mailer such as FrontDoor. I suggest using
FrontDoor v2.12 Noncommercial, but other mailers such as Portal of Power,
D'Bridge, and BinkleyTerm work fine.
3. All systems MUST be 300 baud or higher. Sorry, no 110 baud here. :-)
4. Simple!
Please make sure you have read and understand the echo rules in
ECHORULE.TXT, included in this archive.
============================================================================
How It Operates:

Each node may poll either a Hub or a Host. There are a couple of simple rules
to follow if you wish to poll someone other than your assigned hub/host,
please consult the RGSNET.POL document for more details, your hub or host can
explain them as well.
Of course, there are more than two state hosts, but this is just an example
of the system and how it works.
