Although I had my issues with the admins and policy (ie. no hacking) which forced my hand to create 8311, it’ll always be remembered fondly by myself as a refuge where an inclined person could speak to an ISP directly.

I will not be joining these new outposts as they’re likely the same old but without the ISP reps.
