   telegard was one of many wwiv hacks and the developer's friend copied the tg   
   2.5g source and leaked it and that's how you got the early versions of   
   renegade.   
      
   this leak was a malicious act because the guy who stole it liked TAG and   
   wanted tg to end.  what happenen is the code for tg just got better, and the   
   guy said that cott lang found a few backdoors in it which got removed.
