Well if it is good ?? hmm it depends what you compares with (I can just
speak for myself).
I compare with GEnie's RTC (same as irc) which is more than just some
"people/bots"-playing with their computers..Ok nothing wrong with that,
it could be fun for them, but for ordinary ppl who just want to say hello
to another II-user, or ask a silly question it can be hard to figure out
whats going on.
And if you running a scripting program eg. Phoenix etc,they gladly
would ban you,dont ask me why..
But on GEnie there is a bit Topic-related events but not in 24h/day, and
programmers etc,will have their topics at different times, eg. AW5.0 with
Randy Brandt.Of course GEnie is a bit expensive for some of us,but it is
well worth the money, and you should ask yourself what do you get for
your money.
Well dont think Im hired by GEnie to say this..It is just my own experience.
