Questions & Answers:
|
|
--------------------
|
|
Q. What happens when I'm a hub for a region??
|
|
A. You will normally get 2 node numbers assigned to you. In the form of:
|
|
12:???/0 and 12:???/1. Both these node numbers (replace the ??? with the
|
|
ones assigned to you) will be placed in your FD/IM (etc.) known AKA
|
|
systems. You will poll Bodil Harm (12:700/0) for mail, posts should be
|
|
stamped with 12:???/1 (from your system), and when people poll you for
|
|
mail, they will poll 12:???/0. You are responsible for making packets
|
|
for your nodes that poll you. Example, say you are 12:700/0 (Bodily
|
|
Harm), I am responsible for making packets for all my 12:700/? nodes.
|
|
Hubs are responsbile for polling Bodily Harm (12:700/0) for the mail from
|
|
other systems, it is extremely important that follow rule #3 (poll every
|
|
24 hours).
|
|
|
|
Q. What happens when I'm a node??
|
|
A. You will poll the hub of your region, say you are 700 (east coast), and
|
|
you are node # 12:700/2, you will poll 12:700/0 for mail, just like
|
|
12:600/3 will poll 12:600/0 for mail. Meaning you should never poll
|
|
someone out of your region (ie: if you are 12:600/3 you should not be
|
|
polling 12:700/0, unless you have worked something out with FusioN and he
|
|
knows about this). If the hub is down or not making you packets, try to
|
|
get in touch with him/her. If the problem continues get in touch with
|
|
FusioN and he will fix this problem.
|
|
|
|
Q. What the hell are with these weird regions (ie: 700, 600, etc.)??
|
|
A. Welp, I've decided the best posible way of organizing a net. I've
|
|
eliminated border problems with the north/south/east/west concept (which
|
|
then runs into problems with out of country nodes as well), and the
|
|
thousand dead hub concept (every 1st board in an area code is a hub,
|
|
meaning there are more hubs to look after and take care of and the better
|
|
chance of something going wrong). I've developed the best system yet.
|
|
What I've done is this: I've divided the regions according to their
|
|
time zones (ah!, so that's it), setting Greenwich, England to 12:00 noon,
|
|
and then going with the standards set by the time zones all across the
|
|
world, leaving enough room for expansion with the most reliable system
|
|
for a net. That should explain this concept for all of you wondering
|
|
why the hell the node numbers are of something that you're not used to.
