Micha` Says

I would like to wish even them "terrorists" who seem to enjoy spoiling other peoples fun with chatting that they grow up a bit, get a sense of humanity and learn to be good in life.

As a kind of freak who started his computer experience before about 22 years with a self soldered ZX-81 and 300 Baud acoustic koppler, cassette tapes as storage medium, telephone bills showing hundreds of bucks each month...it just hurts to see how that great, fast growing technology gets abused by some individuals who grow up with dimensions of gigabytes hd-space and megabytes of memory. If they had started out with 1 KB ram (!), maybe they would never get the idea of attempting to destroy so many, many people's hobby.

I don't care about their backgrounds and reasons; NOTHING can make that wrongdoing right. I believe and am sure there will come the time of judgment!

Acting like that is so pitiful; I would classify that behavior worse than punching women or hitting kids. Each Tech dude knows that it is no art to do such kind of trouble, but rather a poor sense of power and real knowledge.

However, I would like to send my best wishes to everybody who reads that, have a peaceful Christmas time and hopefully fun with chatting. DALnet WILL live, there are many, who stick to it and care about it. Good luck for all the staff persons!
