TheNet had been run by some folks who were neglecting the network, and refused to allow the rest of us who wanted to build it better, the tools to do so.

+ | In my role as owner of channel #AfterNET, I am frequently confronted with personality conflicts between channel members. With any channel so large, its inevitable. As such, I often find myself trying to explain to one side or the other (or both) why I cannot just ban the other, and that they should use their ignore feature instead. | ||
