"..i was sitting at home on a rainy day.. bored, didn't feel too good, had a headache.. locally logged onto my bbs, newscanned messages.. then, i came acrossa few messages concerning older groups, mags, and other shit that'd been tried in my area code.. it hit me that nobody had put together a successful group in the area code, with the excepton of dwi.. dwi was a group thrown together by everlast and raven, and merged with rave before any dwi packs were released.. then, rave merged with cia.. that's about all that's come out of my ac.. but now, the guys who put dwi together have all gone their ways.. most of them have sold or scrapped their computers.. then, my mom turned on the light in my room, and it came to me.. something needed to come out of the area code.. sitting in my room tapping this out, i planned out sOlo.. the group is for anyone who has some kind of interest in improving.. the idea is that the more experienced people will help the beginners, so that there's some sort of accomplishment going on.. i thought to myself, 'it's pointless to have a group of cocky dicks who have their head up their ass and think they're the best..' so, i figured this would be the best and most productive way i could make up a group.. and then, the head of each department (eg. ansi, ascii, text, coding, etc.) will be required to write something each month that gives tips about their specialty.. (eg. the ansi guys will give ansi tips, the coders will give hints about coding,etc.) sOlo, in simpler terms, is a group to help beginners out, and to (sooner or later) get off the ground and kick some ass. we'll see.." -sirdeath still don't get it? the idea of sOlo is just to introdouce people to being in an active group.. "groups 101" if you will. it's just an "equal oppritunity" (whatever that is, these days. crazy kids.) group. if you think youhave any potential talent, let us know. we're interested in you if all you can draw is stick figures. if you used to be the president of some big league group,you're welcome too. so you wanna join? that's great. first, conjure up somethin' to give to the head honchos of sOlo (sirdeath and dillinger, both formerly cia). then, call the sOlo whq "blah." at (four one nine) four seven two - zero one five eight. create an account, and in the validation letter, let the sysop know you're intrested in joining sOlo. then, upload your sample work to the sOlo app's filebase. then, call back in about a week, and we'll let'cha know if you're in or not. so, all in all, sOlo's a group that wants to hear from you, and even if you suck, we still love you. but remember, when it comes to crunchtime, you put out or get out. but that shouldn't be a problem now, should it? until next time.. -dillinger; "..good guy badges don't mean a fuck to me."
