We are a serious group and we expect our members to be serious as well. If you want to join just for an association or you don't intend to give us 100% then don't fill this application out. But if you know your old warez, and you know who has the BEST old warez then keep going. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please answer all questions completely. Most information is for reference. Missing information will be taken into account when we receive this application. Thank you. your real name: your email address: nick/handle: age: your home phone number: previous group affiliations: years in the scene: how many megs of oldwarez do you have (at least pre '95): what is the oldest piece of software you have: what position are you interested in: (for position definitions, see below) do you have any other talents that we could use: you, of course, have access to the internet: how many hours a day do you usually spend there: do you have any quotas or other restrictions on your access: do you call bulliten boards: best boards you are on, if yes: Position information: suppliers (what we need the most): suppliers are the ones that actually supply us with the warez we re-release. we would prefer that you have been on the scene at least the last 6 years, and have been amassing releases since then, but if you have in some other way come into an especially large collection, or have some especially rare and nice releases, feel free to get into contact with us. suppliers really have the sweetest position. they get the esteem of having an obviously valuable collection and do minimal work. most of the questions were covered before, so PLEASE INCLUDE A LIST of the things that you have. we assume you are able to contact us either through a fast dcc on irc, or ftp to send us your warez if you are accepted.
