¶d§1¬3
Lots Of Contacts?
¬2
Written By Shotokan/Focus
¬1
Some guys in the scene claim to have
more than ¬230 to 100¬1 contacts. Isn't
this a little bit overwork? A guy
which I swap with said to me that he
had ¬3over 100 contacts¬1! I am not glad
with this, because he just makes ONE
letter, and he copies it 100 times...
When I asked something in the previous
letter or made a remark he wouldn't
take notice of that coz of his §ABIG§1 job
to copy just another 100 letters. Why
don't people stick to ¬25¬1 contacts or
so? I mean, this can't be wrong
because I do it for years now. Maybe
you think : ¬4W H A T?¬1 Is HE a
swapper, but §aYES§1 I am ! I write
personal things, am always open for
questions wherever about and I take
time to answer them. Then you should
think : Do you still get enough and
recent stuff ? ¬2Ofcourse!¬1
E.g. one guy sends me demos, mags and
another sends me some games, pd etc.
Also money ain't a problem when
swapping with so few freaks !
Nowadays in Holland you pay for each
sending with ¬310¬1 disks f. 4,-
(Guilders) and don't forget the
¬2audio-tapes¬1, ¬2chocolate¬1 or other stuff
that weights ounces more. There's
also a lot of time saved for doing
other spare-time activities.
I know a guy who's selling games -yes,
only games- to make some money with
it. But, it is such a lot of work to
do and it is boring too. I can also
go to a factory to do work on the
assembly-line for 8 hours a day and it
is just as boring as copying.
Also you might wonder sometimes:
Where the f##k are these 3 disks
coming from? Maybe contact nr. 32?
Did I send this guy stuff on ¬2MY¬1 disks,
or could it be ¬3HIS¬1 disks? I don't
know anymore... You've got to do a
whole book-keeping for that! So,
let's show ¬3all the reasons together¬1:
¬2- to take time for questions, remarks
¬3- to tell more personal things
¬2- to save cash, less stamps=MORE BEER
¬3- to save time to do other hobby's
¬2- to keep a better eye on in / out
going of disks

Ofcourse it is nice to have ¬4lots of
contacts¬1, but just make sure they know
you well and vice versa. If you think
you don't have a real good
friendshipband with your contacts then
take me as an example and then you
might like these ¬2five¬1 reasons
mentioned above....
