That was not your opinion when we were researching this together. I guess 
you have changed your mind. Now that you are trying to kiss ass to the 
TFN board and sysadm. 

It beats me how a person who claims he can not find money to eat - 
and balming me for it - went to attend the last board meeting? 

Do you believe you will be given a higher access? So as you can librarily 
delete other people's posts and spy on their mail? I think TFN has enough.

It is a shame that you started this whole fiasco because I told you that 
the TFN is safer in Bruce's hands than in yours. I still have that 
opinion, not that I like what Bruce is doing (or not doing most of the 
time). If there are crazy people within the TFN board or the HW/SW 
committee to consider giving you a higher access, I advise requesting a 
psychological profile.

Thank you however for this post, which I believe documents the existence 
of both csas.tofree.net and gts.torfree.net, which Jordan vehemently 
denies. Nevertheless, I shall try myself - through the TFN go url - to 
access these two servers. I know that after my first postings they are no 
more accessible through the WWW. What is the benefit of having these 
aliases is something that I leave to the more techie people, which I am 
not one. If there is no use to both GTS or CSAS then why they are there?

The following are what you'd see if you 'go url' and type 
http://gts.torfree.net. Mind you, I believe this is just only the facade 
to claim that he (Bruce) made this just to piss me off. The real uses of 
such a connection has to be thoroughly investigated. That he chose to 
link to isolda (which caused a lot of discussions before) and that he 
included a jpg file named f...u.jpg are also worthy of some action.

If there is no functional use of this gts.torfree.net through which Bruce 
somehow uses the free T1 connection of the TFN, then such a link should 
never exist.

I believe this is not addressed to me. I only have two accounts (ad613 & 
falcon), but a third ISP account is in the works. So unless Jordan is a 
psychic or he is counting my Finnish freenet account, then he means 
someone else ;-)

That's called libel, Nabil.

Thank you for the information, but what exactly are you referring to. The 
incident I am referring to was actually presented to the board and 
actually Nathan admitted to doing it to some board members. The case was 
closed after suspending Nathan's account for a week or two. So where is 
the libel?
