Hi all,

Curious to know if someone has an ANSI Affiliate Advertisement for DoveNet as is commonly found in FTN's? If not, would it be ok if I request from a couple of ANSI groups on Discord? I like to have each FTN/QWK's ANSI load when a user jumps to the FTN/QWK's message group, along with any posting rules that may differ from the rest (such as FidoNet requiring real names ..)

I have one for weednet, not DevNet, and not DoveNet .. I'd appreciate any pointing in the right direction.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Hi all,

Curious to know if someone has an ANSI Affiliate Advertisement for DoveNet as is commonly found in FTN's?

I don't recall there ever being an "official ANSI" for DOVE-Net. Might have been some created/published ad-hoc at one time or another however (likely long ago). Would probably be pretty hard to find if they were.

If not, would it be ok if I request from a
couple of ANSI groups on Discord? I like to have each FTN/QWK's ANSI load when a user jumps to the FTN/QWK's message group, along with any posting rules that may differ from the rest (such as FidoNet requiring real names ..)

It's a fine idea. Hopefully someone artistic offers something up?

Also FYI: FidoNet doesn't require real names, just most of its public echoes carry a "real name" policy. The network itself has no such policy.

I was about to say the same thing. I could have sworn the policy document made it clear that real names were mandatory, but now I can find no such mention of it one way or the other as I read through it again.

Mandela effect?

I think I just assumed based on what I saw. The policy document hasn't changed in ages, I doubt I read it closely enough back in the day. More like "Everyone is using real names? That must be the rule." Because, in particular back then, I'd always prefer to use my handle if possible.

It's a common misconception. This SYNCHRONET and other Synchronet-related echoes, for example, have no such rule. The use of aliases is fine in some echoes.

Rather than try and keep up with which are which, I just force all my
FTN networks to use real name. I can't be bothered with trying to pick
through and figure which are which.

I'll search around, and if I find one, send it your way. Thanks for the reply!

There are two groups that have a request section within their Discord Groups. I'm just now getting to my emails, I'll fire off a request prior to forgetting :)

Also FYI: FidoNet doesn't require real names, just most of its public echoes carry a "real name" policy. The network itself has no such policy.

When I had FidoNet, I just set all echos to real name. It seemed a bit pointless these days considering most/some use a fake real names. With all other FTN's and QWK networks I've seen, I just set all echos to alias allowed. However this is great info to know if I decide to pick back up Fido :)

People must not be trying hard enough. I've been using fake names since the C64 BBS'ing days of the 80's, because I can :) Plus we were mostly a bunch of Pirates back in the day .. the wooden leg variety of course ;)

I'll grant you that it's blue lettering surrounded by gray, because I tend to use those colors a lot in my own logos & menus. Aside from that, I don't see how it resembles the Mystic.

Maybe I'll recolor the lettering white/light gray surrounded by blue, keeping it more inline with the Sync logo.
