Attention all cracking groups and sysops:

Most sysops in the nation are sick and tired of having five page dir
listings for just a single ware. This is occuring because of long
FILE_ID.DIZ files included in the zips. Groups are using the description
space for their huge 5+ line advertisements and using one line to describe
the actual ware. This makes the description not clear, and most users pass
up the ware when they don't see it while scanning through the dir pages.
By making the title more clear, you will increase distribution.
Many of our sysops are now asking that groups take some options
like these included below.

1. Put a long group ad on the FILE_ID.DIZ of the first file (about 5 line)
   and put 3 line or less FILE_ID.DIZ files on the remaining disks.

2. Shorten descriptions to no more than 4 lines and make the title stand out.

3. Or any other good method you guys can come up with.

Please also remember to keep the title of the warez on the first line of
the FILE_ID.DIZ files, in order to help locate the file while scanning
though dirs, and avoid it being cut off.

If all groups use these methods, this will speed up the elite scene and
increase distribution of wares.

Thank you all and please use these options as they will benefit your group
as well as all the sysops and users the the scene.
