   Why I don't like sysops

   Hello All.   
      
   It's well-known what I think about some sysops in the community.  Here's   
   something I want to share with you all.  The following message, which was   
   accidentally posted in my network, Micronet, and was not meant to be   
   ostensible, showed up.  This person had sent in an application to join my   
   network and this is what he thought (it's refreshing to know the truth when   
   the poster doesn't realize how he screwed up)...

   You gotta love some of these guys who work as hubs on these nets.. I signed up   
   for MicroNet a week ago, never heard from my Hub, until last night when I sent   
   him an email asking WHEN I was going to get in. He said I was already in.. I   
   set up everything today, did a ARREAFIX got no response! Did a FileFix got no   
   response.. SEnt him an email GOT NO RESPONSE! This guy is supposed ot be the #2   
   guy in teh net?? Jeez... I sent him a LinuxNet app a week ago, he says he never   
   got it. I sent off an app for JustaXNet a week ago I never got a response..   
   You really gotta love these guys.. Don't take the job unless you can spend an   
   hour or so a day to do it! Jeez, my board has been connectigin to his board now   
   every hour since 12 this morning. It connects it has sent my test messages, but   
   i don't see them on your board so they are probably sitting in his bad echo   
   folder since his AREAFix probably didn't work! Jeez!! And the head honcho Sean   
   wonders why people hate him?? Because he surrounds himself by people who don't   
   care! Oh well I vented... Thanks...   
      
   LOL Al

   Instead of contacting me about any issues, he does this.  I wonder if Al   
   realizes that unlike him, the rest of us have lives and treat this as a hobby?   
      
   Oh, I don't care if anyone hates me.  I've been doing this for the better part   
   of a quarter-century and people like Al here come and go like turds in a   
   toilet. ;)
