3/13/99 10:03:41 PM Opening "Hnoiyika 3/13/99" Ilia tReki: Jolan tru, all! ;) ::hugs C'eryl:: Heya. ;) E trSaal: ]Wha? AtotrLycus: JT. BRB. Rawl Kvrsh: <> AtotrLycus: BAK Ael tVecj: WB E trSaal: Hmm, it's on this computer, but on my ocmputer at home, a search for ping.* and telnet.* tur E trSaal: turned up nothing Eirl tKaen: JT, everyone I missed AtotrLycus: ::listening to G 'n' R's "Welcome To The Jungle":: Eirl tKaen: someobne IM me if there's something importantto see, or sim starts Rawl Kvrsh: <> KYele: Well, Eton, go to keyword Telnet sometime. Download Commnet (I think that's what it's CeryltSom: ::listening to her sister and friends singing:: Ael tVecj: ::gives Eirl a confused look:: KYele: called). Better than Windoze telnet. Rawl Kvrsh: *destiny* E trSaal: Keyword telnet on AOL? Ilia tReki: ::yawns and leans on a plant pot::rests her eyes:: Ael tVecj: Telnet in Win3.1 is called Terminal. CeryltSom: ::hangs "Do Not Disturb" sign on Ilia:: Rawl Kvrsh: Only thing I ever used telnet for was to telnet to BBS or gopher Ilia tReki: ::shifts a little, but continues snoring softly:: AtotrLycus: ::pokes Ilia, trying to wake her up:: Rawl Kvrsh: *mortal* E trSaal: Um...telnet and terminal are differant things. Ilia tReki: ::grumbles quietly Rawl Kvrsh: *diemortal* Ilia tReki: , brow furrowing:: KYele: I telnet to MUDs mostly. But I usually use a seperate program, rather than Telnet. E trSaal: Terminal is just a bbs phone dialer/interface, tlnet requres a preexisting net connection Rawl Kvrsh: yup Ael tVecj: Ah. KYele: You can also hook up to Telnet servers with it. I've seen it done. E trSaal: ::misses hsi old Dos based Telix:: Ael tVecj: ::shrug:: I haven't had to worry about any of that in a long time. Rawl Kvrsh: I can tell you've been around the way Saal E trSaal: Ah, ok, I stabd connected. Rawl Kvrsh: Yes, I used to telnet to IRC servers Ael tVecj: ::claps hands together::Vaed'rae! KYele: ::hrrau vaed'rae:: CeryltSom: ::hrrau vaed'rae:: E trSaal: ::hrrau...:: Ilia tReki: ::grumbles softly again:: TomekJarok: ::HV:: AtotrLycus: ::blah:: CeryltSom: ::elbows Ilia:: Rawl Kvrsh: long before the days of mIRC or Pirch Eirl tKaen: ::hrrau vaed'rae:: Ael tVecj: Now, I am ashamed of everyone who was at last sim who did not write a log, after Ael tVecj: K'Yele specifically ordered them. Ilia tReki: ::blinks:: Ack! ::jumps to vaed'rae:: Rawl Kvrsh: <<::isn't a crew member::>> E trSaal: I'm visiting family I never see1 I forgot... Ael tVecj: From this point on, logs are mandatory. Even I will write them. ::shudder:: Ael tVecj: I think our storylines have become intricate and personal enough to s Ael tVecj: upport them. Ilia tReki: ::didn't realize::hangs her head:: Ael tVecj: E trSaal: Um...what if one rarely has even a scrap of anything to write about? Rawl Kvrsh: Well....atleast I did do my Raven log already, the sim was last night Rawl Kvrsh: BS Ael tVecj: You have a character with a mind... surely something goes on. E trSaal: and if I did write logs, they'd mopstly be a boring soap opera. Ael tVecj: Rawl Kvrsh: <> Eirl tKaen: E trSaal: Yeah, but it cant have much to do with the sim at times when I don't interact with anyone E trSaal: for a few sims Rawl Kvrsh: <> Ael tVecj: Its more important to write about your character than the sim that just happened. Ael tVecj: We have a log of that. E trSaal: ::shuts up, goes back to attention:: Ael tVecj: Also, I take complete responsibility for Ilia's absence last week. Ael tVecj: She had no choice in the matter. E trSaal: Ilia tReki: ::glances around shiftily:: Rawl Kvrsh: < Rawl Kvrsh: ship>> CylisCohen: ::went 2 years on one sim...not a single log had anything CylisCohen: to do with the missions at hand:: Ael tVecj: This wasn't a topic for *discussion*. ::growls:: Ael tVecj: It was an announcement.
