      On 01 Nov 19 10:33:27, Oli said the following to Janis Kracht:              O> To me it sounds like the IC/ZC/(RC) structure has failed. How did Fidonet go       O> from "cooperative anarchy" to GoT-style fuckups, where the interest of the       O> rulers and their stupid games plays such a central role?              Current IC/ZC/RC relations are actually good, segments are cooperatively        exchanged at all levels to form the Nodelist, even the Fidonews goes out on       time. No fuckups, games or frowny face sad puppies to be found anywhere.              Things just sortof died down and became quiet as of summer last year. Now        overall Fido is just a lot of test messages, the usual Mystic/Synchronet/Linux       banter, and some really good recipes from time to time. The only person making       noise is the current troll in Fidonews, only because it became too quiet in        there with no more zone-war. And even the troll is getting bored now...              If its all doom and gloom, do something about it... there are no rulers, only       people wearing hats that can be removed at any time. Checks and balances.              Nick              --- Renegade vY2Ka2        * Origin: Joey, do you like movies about gladiators? (1:229/426)    |
