The problem is familiar to every sysop: you've been busy, your node has
gon quiet, and the echo is moving on without you. BinktermPHP 2.0 solves this. When your node is offline or you simply haven't checked your mail
in a few days, the AI Echomail Responder will automatically compose and
post replies your behalf Ä keeping your node active, your presence felt,
and the conversation going.

This is the by far the stupidest idea I've heard all month, a solution to a problem that never existed nor is desired by anyone... and likely can be construed as Annoying Behavior in Policy.

Even got an official warning from Z1C about it!

Well since we don't know eachother, I think hardly anyone knows who you are, you certainly haven't ran your unoriginal hairbrained ideas by ANY of them..

Then I saw noise elsewhere about Seenby lines which if you do not really understand what they are, no amount of AI training can improve your stupidity.

I stand by my words... which were very polite... You're at a "carnival" here and if you want to act like Bozo you appear to be dressed for the occasion. Nick
