FICS has gone to the dogs.  I have no account there (now) and do not plan on any
in the future.  It's the old adage, "you get what you pay for", not that ICC is
that much better -- but it is better.  The problems are always with the Admins,
vert rarely with other players (except for perhaps a few that you censor as you
soon as you spot them.  Of course, Admins are never censored as we all know).
Most of the Admins are probably decent -- but it takes only one bad apple to
spoil the whole bushel.
