  • Request for assistance

    From McDoob@21:4/135 to All on Mon Jan 17 18:13:48 2022
    Hi all!

    I saw a message on Fidonet that I thought I should bring to everyone's attention. Specifically, those who are running SynchroNet, or Avon.

    There's a fellow, Fr333n3rgy, asking in SYNCHRO_SYSOP, about how to join fsxNet. I have no experience with SnychroNet, and barely even understand Mystic, so I wasn't able to help him...

    Could one of you fine gentlemen check on this? I'm sure he'd appreciate it! :)

    He didn't put a lot of effort into finding out. He should download the infopack, which is available on many fine bulletin boards, including endofthelinebbs.com which will include everything he needs to get going.

    Right, and the user was assisted in the Synchronet Sysop forum on how they can even run a wizard in Synchronet to get the basics going.

    Well, now, it's very possible that the fellow doesn't know about the
    infopack. It is difficult to put effort into something if you don't know
    where that effort should be put.

    However, you're not the first to mention the infopack. I'll post a message to him suggesting that he download it.

    I've sent that link to the fellow. The rest is up to him, I guess.

    I'm late to this party (hi all) but thanks for passing on the info to the interested chap and I'll do what I can to help him/her when they make contact :)

    Well, it's about time you caught up, innit? (o_-)

    As mentioned, I've sent a reply with the link for the infopack. I'm pretty
    sure this fellow is where I was a month and a half ago. Except, he's never heard of Mystic Guy...y'know, since he's running SynchroNet...

    I am certain that he'd have a better time with our help, as compared to the 'help' from Fidonet...
