What makes this network different from every other dead network that
I'm apart of? WHy, as a sysop, would I add it? What do you provide that
is different from Fidonet, or fsxnet or agoranet, or ilink which seem
to be the only active (or most active) nets currently.

The very popular fsxnet has a nice retro area. Hobbynet has all sorts of hobby related groups. musicnet is a mostly dead music network. I don't see anything new here.

The fsxnet retro area is one of the most active on that whole network right now. All sorts of stuff discussed, from Commodore to older x86s.

That is funny. It is actually like the Foo Fighters. A bunch of FU (FOO) But not remotely based on the Foo Fighters. ;)

I originally had the domain set to 'funet(.org)' then didn't do anything and let it lapse. That is why there is a hyphen in there.
