There really is no reason to tell someone your age. Your apparant age is good
enough. If you go around telling people your a few centuries old they're
going o look at you funny, call the psycho ward or just kill you for the fun
of it. Bragging is generally a bad idea, keep your skills to yourself. No one
needs to know. If people want to know, let them guess. The only things I let
known about my character is he's in a band was in a gang and has some ties
with the Yakuza. Most everything else has been revealed by the people I run
with. Under normal situations if my teamates started spreading info over an
open net like this I'd try to find a way to quiet them.

All in all, there's no reason to let others know who you are and what you can
do. As I said before, let them guess.

Characters are registered by emailing musumeci@***.lis.uiuc.edu and following
the proper formats.

It's the FAQ

GP, who eventually will find the bug in procmail
