 I. What is PPEnet?
 ------------------
        PPEnet came into existance about 2 years ago around the time PCBoard
  15.0 came out and the bbs world was becomming overun with PPL programmers
  and the wanna-bes that always abound in such a "scene." I decided it would
  be nice to have a network dedicated to getting the "Good" programmers
  together to insure that we all had a way to keep up with new techniques and
  to give beginers a place to come to learn without prejudice. Since then the
  net has grown, and died, and grown again.

        PPEnet has become much more than the name implies. Our main focus is
  of course PCBoard PPEs and items related to them. But we also provide support
  for programmers of all types. C/Pascal/ASM are currently supported and if
  interest is shown for other languages we will add echos.

  Note:

        I (Nemesis) had to leave the net a year ago and passed it on to
  another ZC, who basically let it die. The network was inactive from 07-01-94
  until 04-01-95, when I decided to rebuild it and my BBS back from the ruins,
  and it is already better than ever. The net has message traffic from the
  programming underworlds best, and is growing daily. So if you need to contact
  to the best, come to PPEnet.

 II. How do I join PPEnet
 ------------------------

   Joining PPE net is simple. The below requirements are in effect to keep the
   quality of members high:

     You MUST run PCBoard 15.0 or Higher.
     You MUST have a front end mailer installed (such as QFRONT,FD,IM)
     You MUST be able to call your hub at least once a week.
     You MUST have a 14400 baud Modem or above.

    even if you meet all the requirements above PPEnet supervisors reserve
    the right to refuse you admittance if you do not meet our standards.

  To apply for PPENET simply do the following:
   1) Compile the nodelist included with the package with your front end mailer

   2) Attach the completed application (renamed to your bbsname
      i.e. NEWWORLD.APP), to a netmail message addressed to 20:20/0

                                  -OR-

  ASCii Upload the application into the PPE-SUGGEST conference on a PPEnet
  Carrier BBS.

  Once we have recieved your application we will review it and call you at the
  voice number you list in your application. If you are accepted we will then
  give you a new nodelist with your board in it along with your new address
  and the proper hub to call. If you are denied you will tell you why and you
  can strive to overcome you lowely status <g>

  Simple enough eyh?
