Well, so many think "It's an EMERGENCY if their ROUTINE traffic isn't
given PRIORITY, as their HEALTH AND WELFARE (their ego) will be
destroyed otherwise". To them, it's "I want patience right now!!" :P
On my nets, I start early/pre-net checkins 30 minutes beforehand.
Then, I get this joker showing up at net time, wanting to get bumped to
the front of the line. He's SOL on that...and he has violated net
protocol on several nets many times.
On one net, where he wasn't Net Control, he had the AUDACITY to tell
Net Control "this isn't the way you run a net". Had I been an FCC
official, he would've had a Notice Of Violation in his mailbox in short
order.
