I think its a good idea, so time to have dingoboobooers shafted :) if they want to be in there own right they should obtain there server, and not give this it will take 6 months, it isnt cost, nor is it time, i have built an isp new server in a day and most that time was waiting for the hardware i needed :) once i had it a couple hours to build the box and install the OS and server and up and running, i really cant understand how it can take them 6 months :) > > Interesting to note that a followup post from Optus's Engineering Team > Leader seemed to indicate Optus/Microplex have an affiliation, but Dingoblue > is on its own. > Trouble in the ranks? optus engineering has never known whats it doing itself. they certainly have no idea about these groups as that moron chris's post showed, and earlir posts by engineering saying there wasa no moderator when those of us in early days of mpx know full damn well thats bullshit, as backed up by Karen Granschow <sp??> who had to announce a second time just for engineerings sake that Ron Dale was appointed the moderator (her words) of mpx.* and optusnet.* This combined with other laughable maters from engineering is why I take no notice of any of them with the exception of M.O and M.N (the only two i know that actually know what they are talking about) Regards, Noel.
