Hi, Nick!

NA> Its really rubbing some Sysops the wrong way, having them find out
NA> that their messages are crossing over to some Internet platform
NA> they've never heard of nor feel comfortable with.
These sysops can always contact the BBS sysop or complain to his network coordinator.
NA> This to me is no different than a Sysop who just decides to makes
NA> everything available on a Web BBS.
And this is completely fair, it seems to me.
NA> I do not understand why all of this wasn't done either in seperate
NA> dedicated echoes for this purpose or an entire Othernet.
Such echo conferences also exist. It all started with them.
NA> This is not the "future" for Fido and I hope it stops soon.
It's hard to argue with that. Moreover, from the very beginning it was not positioned as the future of Fido. This is just one of the possibilities, looking attractive or not attractive...
NA> This is a perfect example of how not to do something and why new
NA> ideas are most often rejected.
One can argue with this, but I think that everyone will still have his opinion.
