For $160 one could buy a M-net patronship and a Grex membership.
For $110 one could buy a M-net membership and a Grex membership.
For $ 75 one could buy a M-net citizenship and a Grex membership.
 
Seems like a pretty nice discount system is already in place.  :)

For those of us who haven't logged on to M-Net for six years,
could someone explain the three levels of payment mentioned in #1 ?

(it needs to be explained for some of us who *have* used M-Net
within the past six years or so, too. :P  isn't it Arbornet now?)

An M-Net patron gets all the electronic access/disk storage/whatever
M-Net offers.  An M-Net member gets slightly reduced access.
An M-Net citizen gets no extra access.  Patrons, members, and
citizens all get to vote.  Guests (free users) don't get to vote.

Sounds like a headache to administer compared with our member/guest set-
up, but it does sound like it has some advantages.  

I would not support any special discounts for joining both at once.  I 
don't think there is any point other than making the treasurer's life 
more difficult.

M-net members cannot telnet out, only in.

How many members, patrons, "citizens", and "none of the above" does
m-net have today?

I think Jamie meant to write something like:
 11 "regular" Patrons
 10 lifetime Patrons  (for past services rendered to M-net.)

(great.  now clear up how many of those citizens actually paid for their
own citizenship.)  :^)

Sorry, you can color me a grex bigot - I have no interest in tying mnet to
grex in any official way whatsoever, including funding schemes.

As I argued on M-Net, having a joint membership program only means that 
people who woud support both systems anyway, would now do so for a 
little less money.  I'm a regular on both systems who thinks it's a bad 
idea.

response 17 of 33: Mark Unseen   Apr 21 22:35 UTC 2001

Joint membership would imply someone would want to use *both* systems. I
have no desire or interest in M-net <:

Certain grexer's attitudes towards Mnet and "mnetters" always reminds me 
of why it was so much fun here last summer when Mnet was down. :)

Last summer's experience is one reason I chose to support m-net, so that
m-netters would stay in their own bbs instead of using grex - the two do not
mix well.  M-netters may have found it fun, but grexers did not.

(that reverse psychology didn't work on everyone.)  :^)

Given the differences in the two cultures, I think that the
idea in #0 has about a zero chance of flying.

I don't see it being much of an incentive.

I'm always suspicious of "package deals" anyhow. ;>
