³¼STAMP-EXPENCIVES¼³ ¹ -Stamp expencives are the money you use to finance your swapping, buying stamps with.... Well, some of us haven't got that much money so it might be hard to cover the stamp-expencives. For some guys (like me), it becomes an obsession to always hunt for more and more contacts!!! Some of us might get cured (sadly to say), but the other ones (like me) will be caught in, what we call; a financial situation. (not rich..) Well, here is some ways to get out of these situations: 1. There are the "easy" way, stop swapping.. (or may be that was the hard way?) 2. There are the stamp-fucking way.. All have heard of that, and that is not a safe way! After my opinion, this may have worked before, but not anymore. I got busted some months ago, and that wasn't very fun.. I was lucky, and got away with a warning, but not everybody are that lucky! I suggest you keep away from this, coz the postoffices are very aware of this problem. -And for illegal swappers, it is especially important, not to use faked stamps. 'Cause the fact that you buy stamps may be the only thing which makes the postoffice nice enough, not to give your address to FAST!! 3. You may get a better payed job, but that is perhaps not that easy. 4. THE BEST WAY OF ALL!!! This is the way I use: It is legal and just perfect! You might even start to like lamers(!) All swappers live in towns where lamers also live (guys that don't swap is called lamers, the word lamer is often used in wrong situatons. And can also be used in a kind of rasism..) You migt not have anything personal againts these guys, but they are a bit irritating. And you might start to hate when they always call you and ask you the same question. "-May I copy some games today?" Some of you are nice guys, and don't want how to break their heart, so you might say "yes." -BUT it isn't right that they shall copy stuff from you, when you use a lot of money (AND TIME) on your swapping. Well, I don't mean that you shall start selling games, because that is very illegal and you might get busted (FAST!!) -This is what I do, and what I rec- comend that everybody shall do: LET THE LAMERS, EH. NON SWAPPING FELLOWS PAY FOR YOUR LETTERS. That is legal, noting wrong about that! Here is what I do: I have a list over all "stamp-suppliers" and here I write which owes me what etc. For every 4. disk the lam.. persons copy, I get a 6.60 kr stamp (The same as it costs to send 4 disks) The amiga-users in my towm seems to be well saticfied with this and they cover all of my stamp expencives (and a bit more..) And what's good about this is that everybody is happy! (Alle hjerter gleder seg..) Because you get your stamps. Lamers get games. And the swappers that have nothing that you want, get more "hot" stuff, and might therefore get more contacts in the lower scene.(and might reach the top.. someday.)
