I just got my cable modem hooked up today and i was flipping through the "Guide to Cyberspace" that the cable guy gave me.theres some pretty funny shit in this book. quotes like "It's easy to wander off into cyberspace and get lost" and "We all want to be connected- it's a natural part of human nature because, truly, 'We all are one.' The hyperlinks on the World Wide Web are rapidly creating a physical manifestation of our longing for unity - to become one." my GF and i read through it and laughed our asses off. you should see what they say about flaming someone.

this is what the book says, and i quote"You will step on a few toes in any crowd, and in cyberspace newsgroups, for example, you can stomp on a lot of them fast. When you do, you'll do yourself a favor to simply reply with something like, 'Sorry. Your reply showed me that I hit a sensitive spot. I didn't phrase it carefully at all. Will you accept my apology and can you accept a rephrased version of what i meant to convey?'" I'll relate more funny stuff as i find it. Posted by Wolfguard on Jul. 06 2000,11:25

Apparently time warner thinks that flaming people is wrong or something.
