Real DD Users Guide
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Written by: Sir Bernlad
-------------------------
Thanks to: Mr. Awesome, for letting me
be a co on his board (I know it's got
nothing to do with this file, but I
had to write something)
=========================
Real DD users:
know what DD means (in case you
aren't a real DD user, it stands
for Diversi-Dial)
are bright enough not to fall
for the old /quiz trick
in the middle of a private
conversation, never send a private
message to themselves by mistake
can understand why when they
type something in and press return
?
it appears again on the screen a
few seconds later with their name
in front of it
don't turn the beeps off, no
matter what time it is
?
never voluntarily read the
advertisments on the system
do not swear when on public
channels
wait at least 30 seconds before
hanging up when alone on a system
do not try to send e-mail
without a secondary password
do not try to hack out other
users passwords or try to crash
the system
don't try to upload files while
on the system
?
aren't too cheap to buy a p/w
never try to get onto a private
channel when 2 users are already
there
do not bitch at people while on
the system
and lots of other things that
don't immediately come to mind

If after reading this, you thought,
"golly, that reminds me of someone I
know!", and then realize that the
someone is you, maybe you should take
a long vacation from DD systems to keep
your reputation as a cool BBS-hopper
intact. If you've never called, a DD
system, here are the ones in the 312
area code right now and remember the
guidelines I set above.
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
General Modem........338-6100
The Bunker...........759-9191
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
If you can't follow my guidelines, I
suggest you go and try to convince Chip
Welch to set up a Chipmunk DD line,
where you would be more than welcome.
