MR>

I didn't know there was one in there.. I have ran the same ad for years... and now someone somewhere says I have a clear screen in my ad...

I create the ANSI file on the fly with a batch file... I echo in the date and then I follow up with the body of the message... I see no clear screen maybe Mystic tacks it in somewhere or somehow...

BUT it would be better if you configured your software to deal with it..

it would be better if you stopped uploading ads with clear screens.

i can configure my system to block you.

Not everyone has easy control over how the BBS software they're using handles things like that.

Well, you *should* know that there is one in there. That someone is
correct.

Nope, it's being done "on the fly with a batch file", whatever that
means.

That isn't the point.

It's good advice to know what's in your message before you post it.

You never know how an ANSI message is going to look posted on various networked
boards. You might think it looks OK on your board, but it may look garbled on
everyone else's.

This is specifically why I began shifting all my ads to ASCII.
