Thanks for the offer, I may contact you in the future to join Fidonet.


Not that anyone asked, but my feelings around Fidonet are complicated.  I have great memories of Fidonet in the 90s and always had in the back of my mind that I would reclaim my node number 'someday'.  In recent years my opinion of Fidonet has soured, when I browse Fido echoes there is little traffic and a lot of what I see is petty grudges that have lasted for decades in some cases. (I may be looking in the wrong places and with the wrong expectations.)  

I still haven't dropped the idea of reclaiming 1:140/186 for my BBS (net 140 
doesn't even exist anymore!), but...  my feelings toward Fidonet are complicated.


Thanks,
Chris/akacastor
