I still poll the gamenet hub for netmail if that ever happens but I haven't got a netmail for a long time and I'm not sure how that is all setup now.
The QWK hub that I have for gamenet has not answered a call in months so maybe that is why you are not seeing much traffic. :)
Gamenet is Marisa's net and it's up to her to do that. I would gladly help her with that.. if I could. I'm sure she could do that herself anyway.
So I emailed Marisa and offered to help with gamenet - I've seen a few requests for gamenet where folks have shown an interest to join, but a frustration of no response.
She replied to me that she is not "the" FTN admin she only does QWK.
So I've followed up to ask who is the FTN admin - I'm guessing if she answers she'd say you Al?
Anyway, I'm happy to throw gamenet on my Hub if there is interest. It ticks away nicely with little effort from me, and I'm on it daily to know if things arent working well (if a user hasnt got to me first)...
You'll have to have a conversation with Marisa and work out those details. Andrew was also helping. He was producing and hatching the
nodelist. If you are lucky he is still doing that. Move forward with what you have there.
Aside from the actual gamenet hub at gamenet.synchronetbbs.org, you were also starting a hub the last time I was able to log in and
look at things. If that is the case then you can add nodes to your hub and they can link there with you?
That depends on your link with the hub working as expected. If that is all up and running for you, then I can direct applications I
receive from time to time your way.
By the looks of it, there has been very little activity in the last year, so folks may have given up on it? (Or I'm not getting messages - although
I did see something from Feb/Mar.) In any case, happy to help get it running again if there is interest.
So my nodelist is 2019 - has there been one since then?
She replied and told me to look for Alan in the info pack - which is you :)
So yes, by the looks of it I am setup as a hub - although I'm only hubbing for me right now.
Happy for you to throw applications my way and I can set them up here. Any existing user who is having trouble the FTN setup can link here too if they want.
That is the most recent nodelist. It's need updating.. If you can get Andrew to update the nodelist with any nodes that come your
way.
You did have a node at one time.. fusion BBS if I recall. Gone now?
I can hatch out updated nodelists
- the question is if me hatching out something from my node will be distributed for those who feed off of Marissa's. If you cant get in to get those details, it might be easier to restart the FTN setup?

what is it with all these tiny othernets? just create areas about stuff
an distribute it, no need to create a net for every niche.

Yes, this is when I lost the ability to log into the server. There are newer nodes that I never caught up with Andrew but I'd need to get a
look at the setup to get those details.

Yes, but I can't access the hub so I can't be of any help.

I will send applications your way, and wish you all the best. :)
do you forward my application as well? :)

Sorry I don't have your app anymore. I would netmail it to Deon.
Deon: What's the best way for nodes to get there apps in to you?

just let me know where should i send. maybe fsxnet netmail? ;)
I think it would be best if you talk with Marisa about that and keep in sync with the hub she is running or we'll end up with two
different gamenets. It's been a while but when I was able to look at the hub there was a good number of QWK and FTN nodes linked
there and it would be good if you could keep growing that.
Would it be a fair assumption by me that you no longer want to do it?
IE: I'm happy to say to Marissa that I can manage the FTN setup because you no longer have access no have an interest to keep doing it.
