If the patient is not helped,this syndrome can develop into another and much worse disorder known as AIDS (see below). AIDS : Also known as 'Asshole In Despair Syndrome' One inflicted with this much more terrible form of Overkill Syndrome will, in the long run, be ostracized from society.Most of these poor souls are considered as 'Losers'. Loser : One who talks,types,and acts like a complete and undenied asshole.There is no known cure for this horrible disease.There is however great experimentation with a cure known as 'Loser Abuse Boards'.These seminars are supposed to make the inflicted to admit he has a problem. Logon Schitzto : One who owns at least four to five aliases on a said bulletin board.The inflicted will proceed to trade with himself,have 'wars' with himself, and in the case of a sysop being inflicted with this disease ,they will chat with themselves.This disease is very dangerous to the inflicted and also to the fellow users.The only known cure is a serious session with an ID editor by a caring sysop. To help a sysop inflicted with LS,crash his board until he decides to take it down. Download Junkie: Otherwise known as a leech.Sysops of Ae's, Cat-furs and other of the like know these people all too well.There is no cure other than to delete his pass or kill his term that has dowload capabilites. CCAS Victim : Chat Channel Assholism Syndrome.This disease is at its fullest while on a Diversi-Dial or a system like Datanet (215-563-9211) or any other system with multi-user chat.Symptoms are as follows: 1. Expresses a feeling of sickness to all other users on the channel. 2. Believes that you can go voice with other users in the channel. 3. As a new user, starts to call the resident 'cool dudes' names such as 'You butt.', 'I hate you', 'You are an egghead', and others in the same asanine behvioral pattern. 4. Has more than one account on a no time/call limit multi user system. 5. Has the names, Bill Max, Terminator II 6. They smell through the fone. 7. When asked there fone they give it public rather through mail or a Private message. The afflicted will not be able to be spotted unless logged on to one of the above systems.If you have suspicions of someone, get them to log on and see what happens. This is hardly a conclusion to the saga of disorders, its just I'm bored with the topic. Any misspellings? I'm deeply sorry. And I'll try to do better next time.
