| We know that most people are not programmers, and that ||
| Baja isn't exactly the easiest scriping language to ||
| learn, because it is a very powerful and advanced one. ||
| ||
| This has caused what we refer to as the "Stock Syndrome". ||
| It seems like there are 300 BBS's out there with different ||
| names that all look exactly alike. Is yours one of them? ||
| ||
| If so, then this may very well be the network for you. ||
| ||
| We are offering the following advantages: ||
| ||
| * Help and support without the "RTFD" rebuttles ||
| * Mods and Utils File Archive (comming soon) ||
| * Third Party Docs Archive (comming soon) ||
| * ANSI upon request (courtasy of Warlock) ||
| * Live help in chat (irc.oddnet.net #synchsupport) ||
| ||
| We are a community that helps eachother, as well as ||
| helping ourselves learn more than we already know. ||
| No one in SSN is a full blown Synchronet Expert, but ||
| with our combined knowledge, none of us needs to be. ||
| ||
| ODDnet is the OFFICIAL IRC Netork of SSN, and Warlock ||
| is the OFFICIAL ANSi Group of SSN. ||
| ||
| Please join us in chat, and if you have some ANSI ||
| tallent, please join Warlock at:
http://warlock.org.ua ||
| ||
| In the meantime, we reccomend you take the following ||
| steps to modify your BBS: ||
| ||
| * Take the Renegade Shell and replace the ANSI's. You ||
| can make simple ANSI's yourself, or look through some ||
| old artpacks for menu sets you can edit. A good ANSI ||
| resource is
http://ansi.idledreams.net ||
| * Edit the TEXT.DAT strings to change the color codes ||
| and wording of the strings to make them suit the ||
| theme of your BBS. ||
| * Install modpacks that are available. Just follow the ||
| step by step instructions that are included. ||
| * Replace text strings in the TEXT.DAT with ANSI's ||
| by using the @TYPE command, as the syntax is explained ||
| in the Synchronet Documentation. ||
| * Carry small echomail networks that don't have a ton ||
| of members, so that you have a unique selection of ||
| message areas that are not as easy to find as ||
| nets like FidoNet are. This will add a level of ||
| uniqueness to your BBS, and help with activity in ||
| that network. (Of course there is nothing wrong with ||
| carrying nets like FidoNet also, if that is what ||
| you wish to do) ||
