My current position includes working up to 30 hours a week + school. IF i couldn't support software i would not charg for it. Maybe it's not fair of me; I most likely would never charg for software i wrote for non-comercial use.

The problem again is this: 5 sysops paid out their cash for the sole reason of joining the net. I have had the wonderfull agrivation of getting all their complaints -- they assume I have the answers (: He did fix a majority of the bugs, and replyed to my email (finaly) things are getting along a bit better now. -Matt (matt@axium.net) --- Msged/2 4.20 beta 3 * Origin: The Axium 'Help me I'm in hell...'

This means the game will no longer be usable after 12/31/2000 Oddly enough my tests showed it worked fine IN 2000, and even handles 12/31/99 to 01/01/00 Anyone know anything about a fix? -Matt (matt@axium.net) --- Msged/2 4.20 beta 3 * Origin: The Axium 'Help me I'm in hell...'

Anyway, i was asking if they any local BBS around Ottawa that haves plenty of utilities and add-ons for Trade Wars 2002. I am a hard core player in that game and i want some new chanlanges. On my BBS, they don't have many people playing the or plays it often. The only other hard core player on my BBS is my second in command of my corp called X-FORCE. I know they plenty of add-ons for tw2002 and i don't have internet to get it from Solaria web site. My corp already conquer the ferengis homeworld and we want more chalenge. I want to give the add-ons to my sysop so he could put them on the game. Do they have a InterBBS Trade wars 2002 yet? -Louis Pasztor --- Maximus 3.01 * Origin: BitByters BBS, Rockland ON, Can.
