Why should it? Z1 *Cs do it all the time and actually prefer it.

It didn't bother you that you posted from a node number that wasn't yours,
a few years ago.

Neut the Nut! has forged messages before? Who'da thunk it.

Who would do a thing like that?

As is your word...what's the difference?

Extra long bloviation deleted to help keep the costs of Fidonet mail at a
low cost.

Which forged moderator postings are those?

It shouldn't...nothing of that sort is happening.

The moderator was/is a Z1 node.

How do you figure? The rules of that echo state that anything may be
discussed. That means it may be posted and discussion of those posts has
been going on for a while now. It's a good thing the whole of Fidonet saw
through your facade when you tried to become the moderator of FNS.

Guess who we have to thank for that. Ward Doosche set that precedent.
Everybody who went along with it will just have to sigh and live with it.

How about those who created the atmosphere that makes such things possible
these days? Don't they get any credit?
