RESPONSES SINCE ISSUE#1 ======================= This text will deal with what people said about the first issue. I have asked around a little bit among them who're dealing with the underground/piracy scene. If you don't got the first one yet, I suggest that you get it right away! Cuz if you ain't, you certainly have missed something in the virus history ;) hihi..nah, kidding actually!..Anyway, go grab it on some board around you (?), or well give a call to some Swedish Elite-board, for example FireDoom Systems. Since nobody, and I really mean NOBODY knew that we were doing a disk-mag, they couldn't have any suggestions at all, and we just released the first issue when nobody knew there was a group called Immortal Riot. Now, some folks knows about us, and I've seen many questions about for example, who are Immortal Riot? What other handles do they use? Have they called themself something else before? Where do they live? etc etc.. So, now I think some people know about us, and what we're doing. When I asked what they thought about the first issue the repondence was quit ok, but it could be far better if we did so, and if we did that, included more of that etc etc.. Many people wanted to have interviews with other people around, more VGA/ANSi, original MODules, Hacking/Phreaking support, AT&T lists, Anarchy texts and a complete under- ground issue. This would just became a complete mess, we can't do a phreak-magazine better than PHRACK. If some- one wanna get _ALL_ Phreaking/Hacking news, why don't you just download the latest phrack. Well, then you might ask why we're doing a virus-mag, when there's 40HEX out there? Well..ofcause we can't beat up the great 40HEX from Phalcon/ Skism.. 40HEX is the best thing ever happened to the virus scene since DAv was in business. But what I think about that is that everybody can't get 40HEX, for example nearly no one here in Sweden got the 9-11 40HEX, they do got the 1-8 but that they were released when DY, and Tormentor was around. The magazine (or info journals, released from NUKE, has never reached Sweden, we got the first two ones, but after heard that there is seven (eh?) information-journals out there, I got rather confused! Why ain't Sweden got no virus- scene? I saw the Evolution magazine from YAM some while ago, but they have probably released MUCH more than ONE! I know that a second issue was being released some _WHILE_ ago.. But haven't find it somewhere in Sweden. I know this really sux! We ain't got anything about the virus-news here! We only got ONE board supporting real viruses. So, we're trying to push Sweden a bit more into the Virus-Scene. With some help from ANOI, we might even succed! Well, anyhow, back to the responses of the mag now.. They also wanted a VGA-based MAGazine, with an own music system! Gaa..give me a break! I thought vga-based mag would be a cool thing, but after I thought it over..humm..nah! That would only be a waste of time! And starting coding a own music system for playing a lousy .MOD would be very stupid! Think it over! A virus-MAG with a nice smooth-vga-scrolling shit..Nah, let the demo people deal with that! We'll not do a vga-magazine, with a own-music system, we'll probably not make own MODs, we'll not include P/H/A articles, neither stupid lists of AT&T cards! If we gets a hole list of AT&T credit cards, why should we pass ‚m over to all fucking traders around, who gets this magazine first?.. The common magazines will be very similar to this one, some viruses/vga-pictures/articles and it might even be some inter- views, but that's all! We're just three people working with this..and we'll NOT! take in one more for just making a simple .MOD for every issue...Anyway, if you have some good suggestions about how we could do our magazine better, feel free do contact us about that. If you wanna include some of your viruses (.asm/ .exe or something else), no problems! We take in whatever you might think of! If you have written an article about the virus- scene, and wants it spread, just upload it to us..So, just because I didn't made that mag looking exactly as some people told me too, don't be afraid to give me more ideas!.. = THE UNFORGIVEN =
