LEECH (Leach); n; A person who takes all the programs, text philes, or any
|
|
thing else that goes on a disk, that he can, without giving anything
|
|
in return. ---The Webster's Computer Crime Dictionary, 1985 ed.
|
|
(coming soon to an AE line near you!)
|
|
|
|
Leeches are:
|
|
-------People who call up an AE or Catsend and take EVERYTHING on it.
|
|
-------And don't upload.
|
|
-------People who call BBS's and read EVERY message on there.
|
|
-------And don't post
|
|
-------Then head straight for the G-Philes
|
|
-------And read all they can within the time limit
|
|
-------They then call back and get MORE.
|
|
-------And MORE
|
|
-------And MORE
|
|
-------People in school who TELL you to give them your newest.
|
|
-------When they don't have anything to give in return.
|
|
-------Except Super Deluxe Tax-Man VI
|
|
-------AE sysops who have 4 drives full of "U/L here!"
|
|
-------BBS sysops who tell you to U/L to get your security level raised
|
|
-------When they have nothing to offer at the higher levels
|
|
-------People who don't write their own text philes
|
|
-------People who say, "Anyone have a cheat for..." repeatably
|
|
-------People who see phreak codes on a board and use them to death
|
|
-------Without hacking out their own.
|
|
-------People who see your latest on a "New Warez" board and ask you to GIVE
|
|
them the programs and they'd be forever grateful...
|
|
-------People who come over your house, copy everything you have, and say,
|
|
"Oh, look how late it is! I have to go!"
|
|
-------People who work out an AE/Catsend trade, get the game you send them,
|
|
and hang up.
|
|
-------Note: THEY always call YOU in the first place and you don't have their
|
|
fone number!
|
|
-------Someone who trades by mail and never sends his stuph.
|
|
-------People who say they have the newest when all they do is call AE's
|
|
all day and D/L everything they have time for.
|
|
-------Your "dad's friend's son" who doesn't know shit about computers
|
|
-------Basically, anyone who doesn't C O N T R I B U T E to a BBS, AE,
|
|
Catsend or WHATEVER. Leeching is the #2 sin, remember...besides
|
|
being 13 years old! So...----> DON'T BE A LEECH! <----
|
|
-------[Note: this is not a leech...it is an geek!!] Anyone who changes the
|
|
names of authors of text philes! It's ok to but your board's name up
|
|
there, but DON'T change the author's name! It's against the law!
|
|
(of course, that never stops us...). So PLEASE, don't do this!
|
|
|
|
If you do ANY of the above, then stop immediately! In the computer crime
|
|
social scale, leeches are ranked lower than Melvins! (scary thought isn't
|
|
it?). So if you have any of those habits, stop them AT ONCE! You will
|
|
be doing the entire computer underground a favor!
