Hello Dave,

MP>> Lizard Master,

MP>> Welcome to the COOKING echo.  FYI, it is one of the FIDO real names
MP>> echoes. Thanks!

MP>> Mike

DD> Ooooookay. Should have scanned the echo instead of just jumping in and
DD> welcoming the new participant. And warning him/her/they/them that you
DD> might shoot a "real names" rocket in that direction.

When you were born you did not have any choice in the matter, as
somebody else told you what name you had to go by. But we are grown
ups here. And we decide what names we want to go by. After all, this
is our echo. That's right. The participants own this echo. Not any
wannabe "moderator" or jerk on an ego trip.

Since I am not a Fidonet sysop, I cannot be held accountable for my
actions. So feel free to file all the policy complaints you want.
Not that it matters. In fact, the exercise might do your fat fingers
some good. So type on, buddy! Type on!

DD> What would you bet that the origin board for Lizard Master is a gameing
DD> board? That sure sounds like a Dungeons and Dragons handle to me.

It is his own name, not yours to use, in this echo. If you want
to play, use a name of your own choice. That is how the game is
played.

For Life,
Loose Flea
