I don`t think you`re very "up to speed" on modern SBBS. You certainly
don`t understand much about text.dat or text.ini, that`s for sure.

No, there isn`t. That`s not how text.dat/ini works.

Your comments are stupid.

I`d say you`re the one who`s confused about Synchronet. The more you
talk about it, the more obvious that becomes.
