        Introducing CatNET, a new locally "echoed" message network.


        CatNET is one of the newer entrants into the world of message
        base echos. CatNET was formed not as a replacement to the large
        National networks, but as an easier alternative.
 
        CatNET operates under any QWK compatible mail system, such as
        TNet for Wildcat, QNet and RNet for PCBoard. Other BBS software
        can be also be used, provided a suitable QWK mail tosser is
        available for it.
 
        CatNET charges NO membership fees or yearly dues. Participating
        systems only pay for their phone calls for mail transfers.
 
        The only required conference are:
        CatNET Common - Public Conference for all users;
        NetAdmin - Private Network Sysops only;
        NetLine - Private for Network Sysops and Co-sysops.



                  CatNet User Rules and Regulations
                  ФФФФФФФФФФФФФФФФФФФФФФФФФФФФФФФФФ
        Revised: Sunday 12 April 1992

        CatNet is a Network of Bulletin Board Services that share common
        message conferences, which are echoed between these Bulletin
        Boards via the Hub. This Network is a voluntary service provided
        by participating System Operators, their respective Bulletin
        Board Systems, and the CatNet Hub.

        Here are the current rules and regulation concerning user
        participation in all Network conferences and Network messages.

    1.  Flaming or similar personal attacks on this Network are
        prohibited. Derogatory racial, ethnic, or other such remarks are
        not allowed.

    2.  No abusive or offensive language is allowed; and no abusive,
        offensive or lewd graphics are allowed.

    3.  Real names must be used. No ALIASES or HANDLES are allowed in
        any Network Conferences.

    4.  No illegal activities will be tolerated, including but not
        limited to PIRACY, PHREAKING, or other CRIMINAL ACTIVITIES.

    5.  Messages on this network are PUBLIC and accessible to every user
        on every node of this network.

        PRIVATE messages are available only in the USER-USER conference.
        While every effort is made by the network software to correctly
        route and protect such private messages, the Network disclaims
        all responsibility should these measures fail.

        Network Sysops have the ability to monitor ALL messages routed
        through their nodes.

    6.  Messages may be of any length if the matter contained within the
        message warrants it. Excessive quoting is not permitted.

    7.  Messages should be contained within suitable conferences that
        address the subject thread.

    8.  The use of ANSI color signatures is permitted in all Network
        conferences provided they do not take up the bulk of a message.
        ANSI BBS advertisements are allowed in the BBS_Ads conference.
        All other ANSI screens are allowed ONLY in the ANSI/Graphics
        conference.

    9.  Any user found to be in violation of any Network rule will be
        issued a warning, and/or on the judgement of the CatNet
        Administrator, be prevented from accessing any or all Network
        conferences from ALL Network nodes.

    10. No warranties expressed or implied, are made by the Network or
        by any participating nodes regarding the contents or subject
        matter contained within Network messages.
