On the subject of deckers morphing their T/D stamp.

In Issue #4 (or was it #3?) of the NAGEE, there is an article that
discussed in wonderful detail how to go about changing your stamp. It
has a really good techie bent to it. READ IT!

One thing you need to keep in mind:

In ShadowTech, which is the first place I remember seeing an altered T/D
stamp, it was a unique thing. Unfortuantely, secrets get out, and even
faster it seems in the geek community. Soon everyone will be doing it.

I do agree it is a little overused (another often ignored rule in the FAQ
I guess). Of my characters, not many have used an altered stamp,
although some have appended:

-- Splut <Look out below>
-- Ramirez <>
-- Tirandor <From the Dragon's Desk>

Both Yoshida's have their position and company appended.
RUFUS and MONICA has a copyright attached (they were AIs)
Leon Meyers and Wolf_359 use normal stamps, as did Morph and Dante.
Lincoln Howe had his company and position attached.
Tirandor also appends his position and company.
