Yep, the reward for joining AOL Hometown just came in. AOL just gave my 10 megs
more space for joining AOL. The great part about it is that it all goes to my
Antmatic screen name, not 2 per screen name like AOL planned to do (AOLers
asked AOL to put it all into one screen name, and they budged). So I now have a
total of 12 megs of web space. Most web page hosters like Geocities and
Angelfire offer 5 megs. Thanks AOL.

Visit my web page at http://members.aol.com/antmatic/antmatic.html with links

Quite impressive. Texas Net offers 50 meg.

Congratulations.

Ahhh, but that is not AOLs 'standard' issue. :)

Antmatic is kissing some serious gluteus maximus to *obtain* 12 meg of
webspace!

Why bother going thru the hoops and hurdles when other ISPs offer more
webspace with no Ads? :)

Huh?

Texas Net is a regional ISP serving Cental Texas.
Plain-Jane ISP. Short and simple.
No pop-ups whatsoever. How can you have pop-ups with a PPP connection? :)
Direct dial-in with *excellent* tech-support.
Pure and simple as that.


BTW.....PI only offers 2 Meg?

Tisk....tisk ;>)

Yeah, I was LMAO at that one. I get 12 megs free, and and extra 10 for
an extra buck, like you would use that much space to begin with. And
STILL it's cheaper than aol. Go figure.

Still, AOL offering 12 megabytes is much more than the standard for other free
web servers, like Angelfire, Geocities, and Tripod. And Bogus- I can now remove
my site from Hometown AOL and keep my 12 megs.

12 is more than 10 and 11, Nightheart. Learn your math.

TexasNet is only a regional ISP- thier services are not available to everyone,
so therefore, TexasNet does not really count. If Texas Net was like Geocities,
then that would be OK. But from the ATL, AOL offers me 12 megs, and that is
more than anyone else for free.

Like I said before, TexasNet is a regoinal ISP- that 50 megs is not available
to everyone in the country.

I wasn't talking about the freebie sites, I'm talking about my ISP. 12

I was talking about the freebie sites. And I can remove my web site from
Hometown AOL now, and still keep the extra 10 megs. Read a post before you

You guys reply, so you obviously must care. And as far as the crack at the end,
atleast AOL has the most content of any ISP.

LOL, pot/kettle/black. You didn't read my post right, so you have to
make excuses and have to blame others. Is that ALL you can do? All I
EVER see from you is excuses and more excuses. Typical from a worthless
aoler. Since you aren't bright enough to be on an ISP, aol is right
where you should be.

I think it really "does" count.

Why jump thru all the hurdles and waste time finding "Free" sites, when you
can have a very *large* one in the first place.

I don't have to do ANYTHING. I have 50 megs available right now.

Do you?


Lets face it......you kissed AOLs behind by joining AOL Hometown. THEN you
came in here and plugged that site.

That is not debate. That is sucking-up. That is publicity for both AOL and
your *page* and you *know it*.


Once again........do you have 50 meg?

Yes or no? (don't wait for the translator)

I can't understand why someone would make a total ass of themselves and keep
coming back for more :)

Either way, he has always compared AOL to an ISP. Then he said he joined
Hometown and his total webspace was modified soonafter. Then he says my ISP
does not count because he was talking about "free" sites.

Go figure.

BTW if anyone is wondering about the "GigaNews" in my headers.....it is a
branch of Texas Net devoted entirely for newsgroups (not an ad).

It seems there are quite a few aolusers that will do this. I don't know
if it makes them feel closer to (UGH) aol, or if they think they are
going to get some kind of brownie points from aol or what.

Most of them THINK aol is an ISP, or they buy into the aol is the
Internet crap. It's no wonder he can't remember what the hell he was
talking about, let alone switching thoughts in mid stream as it were.

That is CERTAINLY a RATDFA squish. LOL! I guess they'll never learn

I could have if I wanted to. AOL has 5 screen names- this offer could be
applied individually for each of them. Technically, I could have created 5 web
pages and put them into Hometown AOL, 1 for each different sites and got 60
megs. Through this offer, AOL could allow one to get 60 megs per account. 60 is
more than 50.

I am here mostly to annoy AOL haters like you who have nothing better to do
than to bash a company that is the biggest juggernaut in the Internet,
Nightheart. You will never change my opinion, I will never change yours. I know
AOL is the best, you guys are just too stubborn to listen to me and to see why.
And I do not suck up, I am just posting stuff you guy's don't want to hear.

But the question is *why*.

Are you still expending your own time in doing so? I just find that
*inconvenient*.

Regardless of size.......you are still jumping thru all the hoops, hurdles and
agreements. In reality none are normally required. Why?

"To each his own".......I guess.

Why not? You are only providing *positive* things about AOL.

Correct?

If you call contradictions and Spin Doctoring *on top*......then you belong in

Here are two facts:

1. "I" don't have a short attention-span.
2. Our friend Mr. DejaNews has no problems with memory either.


It seems like you are doing an excellent job on making a TOTAL fool of
yourself.

Please continue :)

I don't need 60 megs for a site like mine- heck, I probably don't even need 12
megs.

However- hmmm... the fact is that I think I won this argment becasue with AOL,
you have the opportunity to gain 60 megs of web space if you want to- with
TexasNet, you get 50.

Here ye! Here ye!
Let this be for the record:

Antmatic admits that he is *biased*.

The databases of DejaNews are recording this monumental day in history!

And I always thought it was about *debate*. :)

Reality check.

You didn't win anything but humiliation.

If you were *on top* so to speak.......then why the desparate attempt to
explain your *webspace* article? And even in that........you tried bring the
*numbers* issue to fore.

Oh, the humanity!

Does this make Antmatic an AOL-hater-hater? :)

Darn.

I didn't catch that one. Another contradiction added to my long list of
Antmatic's mistakes!

Ok- then why don't you guys say "IMO AOL sucks"? If you do that, then frankly I
can't argue with you.

So why do you call people who dislike AOL "Haters"?

The term "AOL Hater" as I understand it- a person who does not like AOL to the
point that they bash AOL in newsgroups (like alt.aol or alt.aol-sucks), or they
maintain an Anti-AOL web site.

I was just curious.

As we all know, Microsoft's trial just started today. And as we all
know....Microsoft gained its share of opponents thru the years.

AFAIK.......I have never heard the term "Microsoft *Hater*" applied to those
who dislike, "Bash" or even "Hate" Microsoft.


Just a little tidbit of totally useless info :)

By the way, I am against any anti-trust action against Microsoft, simply
because there is no feasable solution to Microsoft's Windows dominance.
Packaging Netscape makes no sense.
