The echo names are in preareas.txt. Important things to remember are: HOLY_BIBLE is a very strict echo that requires Biblical proof for any point (not just a token verse to "justify" unsupported religious opinion) LADIES is restricted to females only and that includes the SysOps (male SysOps must not read the LADIES echo ) PR_MEN is restricted to males only NET_ADMIN is for the PRIME SysOps only. PRIME is a rather low volume network as compared to many. What happens here usually is that the echos build up over time into interesting and informative threads. For that reason it is important that SysOps only purge PRIME echos by number of messages rather than dates of messages. These are the PRIME echo names for FIDO style software We recommend starting out with all of the conferences since we are a rather low volume network.
