  Ok John....have we been taking just a little bit to much of mommy's 
pills...*laugh*...I know your sick of Quake questions, but here's one more 
just to brighten your day.  You guys have said that you would release some 
of the Quake code with the game, and I'm sure you guys still plan to do 
that since you guys never lie *grin*...IS there a limit on what we can do 
with the code...I mean can we let are imaginations go flying, or are they 
going to be caged in with a cyberdemon...

Hi John!

>And yes, i have been reading all your messages.  Muahahahahaha!  :)
I know, we're all unworthy. But may I beg you for another attempt of a lame-ass
update of the finger-file? Or maybe you could even post something here - if
your time and mood permits.. ;-)
 
Yours,  Philipp

I don't think you can convince most of these guys John...They'd have
to see you type it.  Besides, they've seen just about every bull shit
artist take their turn in here.

Signing the message with PGP (use the new color tin w/ built in pgp support!)
is one sure way of knowing who wrote the message. 

One thing to keep in mind about PGP though - it's a good idea to include 
the To: E-mail address within the signed text, this way you can be sure of
who it was intended for.

Well, it's better than another Quake beta posting at least ;^)

Its probably getting to the stage where if Romero, McGee, Wilbur or anyone want
to say anything they'd be better off putting it in their .plan or on their
website rather than actually posting it.

I can imagine in a few months time..

John Romero: Dudes!  It's done!  It's on our ftp site, 
  ftp://ftp.idsoftware.com/quake/quake100.zip

Misc. alt.games.quaker: Bugger off "Romero" - you're coming in from netcom.

JR: Yeah!  I've got a netcom account!  Quake is really there!  Go have a look

agq: <Nods solemnly> Right.  So I should waste my time and money to go looking
  for a game which won't be out for a couple a weeks

JR: Nah man!  Look - finger jro...@ix.netcom.com - I'll change my plan to say
  Quake is out, ok.

agq: [after doing the finger] You're going to get into trouble when Romero 
  finds out you hacked his account, buddy...

And so on.. :-)

 Then you should be braindead by now. How did you resist so much stupidity?
 And why are you posting another message instead of working on 'Symbol'?   8)

 P.S. A happy new year to you, too.

ISDN? Damn fast+quality fiber optics!
Will quake support ISDN connections?

ISDN is carried on copper. (to houses anyway)
ISDN is a phone line, only faster (oversimplification)

Most software doesn't care about the physical layer
in a network, just what kind of network.
The network software/harware worries about the physical layer.

Hardly. If John Romero is using a netcom account, why is he hiding it
with the "idsoftware" in the address? He'd have one address that says
"idsoftware", the one based at idsoftware. The one based at netcom
would be have "netcom.com".

Why? Maybe he just does not want his private mail basked stuffed with
Quake-messages....

Besides, they have a news server so why shouldn't he post from there?
If you don't believe it just ask the name server at your site. You can
do it like:  nslookup news.idsoftware.com 

My server gave me this:

Non-authoritative answer:
Name:    ftp.idsoftware.com
Address:  192.246.40.6
Aliases:  news.idsoftware.com

Which means they are running a news server on the same machine as their
ftp and www servers.  Probably have a newsfeed anyway so the discussion
is meaningless.  They post from idsoftware and not Netcom.

Just wish they'd get a PGP key.

	Nah, I'd have it..  I wrote a perl script that checks every five

have it five minutes after it comes out. :)
