Modem Errata
GO PLACIDLY among the line noise and baud rates, and remember, what boredom
there was before BBSing. As far as possible, do not COVET your neighbors
HST. Answer your Email CLEARLY and with out typos, even to the NERDS that
PESTER you, for they have SOMETHING to say even if you can't FIGURE out
what it is. Avoid FEMALE impersonators in CHAT, for they are DANGEROUS to
your ego. If you compare yourself with OTHERS, you may consider SUICIDE;
for there is always someone more PROFICIENT in ZMODEM than yourself. Label
your disks.
Keep interested in your own CAREER, however humble; even after
staying up ALL night downloading. Exercise caution in your BUSINESS
affairs; because YOU need the MONEY to pay your compu-Serve bill. But
let this not BLIND you to what enjoyment there is on your LOCAL bbs;many
persons strive for the MOST recent shareware and UPLOADS get you more
TIME on line. Be yourself Especially, do not LIE about your AGE or
LOOKS when responding to "Sexlady". Do not post messages in CAPS. Neither
be cynical about DONATIONS to the SYSOP; for in the face of all REALITY,
he needs the MONEY for the PHONE lines. BEWARE of VIRUSES. Take kindly the
councel of Phil Katz and Chuck Forsberg, gracefully ADMITTING that they
KNOW more than you will ever LEARN. Nuture strength of spirit to shield
you from SUDDEN hard disk crashs. But do not DISTRESS yourself with
NEEDLESS worry. Many FEARS are born of FATIQUE from being connected ALL
night to ExecPC. Register your shareware. You are a CHILD of the
universe, you have a RIGHT to buy a 9600 V-Series US ROBOTIC Modem. And
wether or not it is CLEAR to you, the communication program IS
understandable. READ THE DOCS. Therefore be at PEACE with the SYSOP, no
matter what a JERK he is, and what ever your BBS plans may be, take
your WIFE out to dinner occasionally. With all its BAD documentation,
HIGH registration fees and aborted downloads, it is still better than
PAYING for commercial software. Be CHEERFUL. Strive to PAY your phone
bill.
