It was a tough decision, but I'm sure you know as well that the competition has become especially big this year, so we're going to concentrate our efforts on content and hosting. We'll miss many of the people that we've gotten to know over the years, some of them longtime customers from the BBS days, (back when we had monthly get-togethers and actually got to see a few more faces, not just the user IDs.) As far as the wild statements by Mr. Wiper, well...I hate to even reply to him, but I do want to stress that: *No, we aren't insolvent, out-of-business or anything of that kind. *Yes, we had an ongoing court case against our ex-landlord, which unfortunately took a great deal of time, money and mental anguish to pursue, but it had to be done. *LiveWire existed as a BBS until March 1997, and was shut down primarily due to lack of interest, as most folks got their chatting needs fulfilled by the Net by that point in time. Anyway, enough said. Thanks again- Kelly Paradis * Sent from RemarQ http://www.remarq.com The Internet's Discussion Network * The fastest and easiest way to search and participate in Usenet - Free!
