AOL is for Real Internet People
Warmonger
because he/she has to PAY each time she reads it?
I suggest sending her 40 copies of your favorite flame. At 25 cents
a pop, that's an easy 10 bucks on her bill.

AOL only charges you for the time you spend online retrieving/reading mail, not for
length, or per message. However, if you compose long enough e-mails, they do
take quite a bit of time to retrieve... <g>

Yeah, but did you see the penis? Perhaps the AOL news gateway "truncated" it,

Nope, AOL doesn't charge a per-message fee for the Internet gateway. Too bad,
that might be an easy way to drive away some AOLers.

Sorry, but AOL doesn't charge for E-mail, Fraudigy and Compubucks do. It
is probably still worth a try just to hassle him/her/it any way.
A better idea is to just throw him/her/it into a killfile. I did it the
first day he/she/it posted and still haven't been able to get away from
his/hers/its posts because a lot of people obviously aren't as bright as
me and keep following them up.

: I do believe you were right in some aspects. But now prodigy is
: going to crush AOL with all of its new services. Prodigy already has Chat
: and Newsgroups. And within the next couple of months prodigy will have
: online internet e-mail capabilities. And by next year they are going to
: offer even more internet services. To top it all off, they are dropping
: their prices. This is not going to sit well with AOL since prodigy
: already had alot more members than AOL.<G>
What does this have to do with the message you were quoting,
"INTERNET USERS STILL USE EDLIN!!!!!!!!!!!!! MACINTRASH SUCKS!!!!!!!!"
