|
|
|
|
A). He U/Ls the same amount of times he D/Ls.
|
|

Chapter 4: The "Ideal" paracite
|
|
|
|
This chapter describes how the 3 classes of paracites act on BBSs'.
|
|
|
|
U/L D/L systems are where you find the most Leeches, etc. so that is what I am focussing on.
|
|
|
|
A). Loozer
|
|
|
|
1). He puts fake files up on the Fur/Ae which are not to be out for years
|
|
just so he can D/L.
|
|
|
|
2). He posts shit that he does not have on the available list.
|
|
|
|
B). Leech
|
|
|
|
1). He simply doesn't U/L.
|
|
|
|
2). He tries to con the sysop into letting him get a 4 side game saying
|
|
that he will then U/L Ultima XXXXVVVVIIII and just hangs up.
|
|
|
|
C). Rodent
|
|
|
|
*NOTE* - Rodent and Leeche go hand and hand and they are very much the same.
|
|
|
|
1). Refer to "B"
|
|
|
|
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Chapter 5: How to eliminate the above
|
|
|
|
This chapter GENERALY describes the methods most commonly used to eliminate the above.
|
|
|
|
A). Loozer
|
|
|
|
1). Just face him with the facts and kick him off.
|
|
|
|
2). Tell him to first "Fuck Off Loozer" then do the above.
|
|
|
|
*NOTE* - If this is a 13yr old or younger case of loozer, just tell him, "You
|
|
are too young to be in the pirate world sonny" and hang up.
|
|
|
|
*NOTE* - He will probly convert to a rodent (Which will be described later) and
|
|
start doing rodent things.
|
|
|
|
B). Leech
|
|
|
|
1). Ok, just warn him (if you have any feelings for him) and tell him to
|
|
start doing shit (this is of course if he is young enough to belive
|
|
you).
|
|
|
|
2). Put him on the rag board.
|
|
|
|
3). Kick the little bastard off and prank his number with Micro Pranker.
|
|
|
|
C). Rodent
|

Chapter 7: Computer relations (& modems)
|
|
|
|
Ok, this one describes the computers and modems that are alowed on a
|
|
respectable BBS. (Idea derived from Dr. Arcane)
|
|
|
|
Computers:
|
|
|
|
Apple (Family): A cool person (obviously) - No disconnection what so ever
|
|
unless he fits under the above descriptions.
|
|
|
|
IBM: Pretty cool people, respectable computer, rarely worth shit on an Apple
|
|
board - Some disconnection aplicable.
|
|
|
|
C0m0d0rk: Other than instant dissconnection, they are real loozers and
|
|
shouldn't even attempt to call an Apple board.
|
|
|
|
Tandy: Kinda a cross between C0m0d0rk and IBM. (You decide)
|
|
|
|
Timex Sinclair (hahahah): Faster than instant disconnection, multiply C0m0d0rk
|
|
times 10 and you got Timex.
|
|
|
|
Atari: A cross between IBM and Apple - Moderate disconnection.
|
|
|
|
Modems:
|
|
|
|
Cat (Family): The way to go as they say - No disconnection.
|
|
|
|
Micro Modem (Family): Ranks second in the race of modems, normaly cool people,
|
|
very scarce disconnection.
|
|
|
|
Volks Modem: A few cool people - Very common disconnection.
|
|
|
|
Apple: Fair people, some disconnection.
|
|
|
|
Any 110 baud modem: Instant disconnection, you shouldn't even be asking this.
