Hi!....Suggestion
We all know what the real name is, but if you type www.kixstart.org you can also come in (marketing purpose I guess).

I guess it's for those that don't know the correct spelling. They need all the help they can get.

Untill we know better I have to assume that the consequences of not paying your bill goes something like :

"Hey, we told you that we are a no-nonsense provider, so don't you complaint about broken legs !!!" [Big Grin]

Guys,

take a look at www.kixtart.com and compare it with www.kixtart.nl ...

Hmmm,
henri@kixtart.nl = henri@kixtart.com = henri@kixtart.org ???

All located in the Netherlands I think...

Must be a Dutch thingy. Now Henri has multiple personalities, too, just like MCA who always talks about himself as 'we' [Wink]

I may be totally off-base here, but I always thought that the history is/was that Henri worked for Kixtart.nl (the web hosting company) and that he used Kixtart to manage some of his domains (why, I have no idea) ... but found that there was no good Kixtart information/forum out there so he generously provided space and software to run the BBS as a side-line out of his office.

What doesn't make sense is that in the early days - kixtart.org (then: kixtart.to) was hosted by another third-party ISP (anyone remember the day when we all got "kicked-off" that ISP ? for allegedly "abusing" the system ?) ... so if he runs or works for a webhosting co. why was kixtart running on a thirdparty ISP ?

Not one to look a gift horse in the mouth - I've always wondered what relationship Henri has to kixtart (he's acknowledged in the Kixtart 2001 acknowledgementes) and what motivates him to keep this bbs running. Having said that, I have to give the guy credit because he runs one heck of a tight ship. Hats off to you Henri.

I always assumed he was affilated with Rudd in some way.

I would like to put in my 3 cheers for Henri.
