This is a wishful thinking driven interpretation. Freedom on aaa is not the issue. Isolationism of aaa is the issue. That is, there will be a constant influx of newcomers to aaa who expect about the same netiquette as elsewhere on the net and then clash, particularly with the asciigangsteins, not with me ;-)) It is quite safe to predict that these clashes will become more and more often as isolationism will distance aaa further and further away from mainstream. As I pointed out, there are good means and ways for aaa to go mainstream _and_ preserve ascii pics, which is a source for lively entertainment here on aaa ;-)) =========================================================== [] [] [] ,, (__) As bride and groom we hail [] [] ( "> <" ) all devils with but one tail [] [] ,(> )><( <), [] [] ( ^^ ^^ ) http://www3.sympatico.ca/petecasso/ [] [] [] ===========================================================
