Hello Barret,
Thank you for the reply. I am looking forward to joining you at irc.project-pm.org however it seems to be unavailable right now. Do you have a twitter #tag?
we are having legal & technical issues preventing us from broadcasting via skype. We hope to have this resolved soon and at then I can discuss with you what if anything could be suitable.
Thanks again and I will check in on your IRC from time to time.
Regards,
D

D-
The twist you suggest is indeed a very good idea and is actually similar to a sort of schematic I designed a while back and which we hope to put into the form of a network application later this year. An entity that hopes to be effective has to have a means of quality control, or the average capabilities of its user base risks declining over time, and having membership grow via vouching by the original participants, whom one can of course pick and choose based on quality early on, is a good way of doing so.
Note that the Guide to Pursuants will be continually updated and refined in hopes of making it a more effective document by which to instruct people in information warfare and effective activism. Do continue to distribute it and "fork" it with any ideas, such as tactics and tools. You should also consider joining us at irc.project-pm.org #projectpm, which is currently our "base of operations."
I can certainly appear on your program via Skype; let me know when.On Thu, May 19, 2011 at 6:43 PM, Amped Status D <flood3r@optusnet.com.au> wrote:
Hello Barrett,
My name is D and I was very inspired by your recent comments and articles.
Oh where to begin, I am a volunteer correspondent with Radio Skidrow http://www.radioskidrow.org/.
Recently I have been responsible for covering the actions of anonymous and several anons. We regularly have people such as Max Igan from the http://thecrowhouse.com/ as guests. Currently we are publicising and supporting http://www.hangedmantour.com/
My anonymous involvement has over time increased from using IRC etc since the 90s & has evolved to participating in several operations since last year. During this time I have come to realise our digital connections are only as good as our physical ones and as such having read your guide to pursuant was wondering what would be your thoughts on setting up one here locally in Sydney. I am a member of a small group of people who have come together to effect positive change. We range from industries such as, radio hosts, Journalists, lawyers, sales people and even financial advisors.
I was hoping you could give me your thoughts about a establishing a pursuant with a small twist and that is, membership is dependent on being vouched for by an existing member. I was wondering if you had suggestions for how best to implement this protocol or any suggestions and Ideas. The reasons for this are many but for example one rouge member can tarnish a whole organisation and we hope to avoid this.
I would love to hear what if any feedback you can offer and I just want to say congrats on having the courage of your convictions and I look forward to seeing ProjectPM grow. I look forward to any privilege of further discussing these ideas with you. This is my 1st post that I sent to several members intent on action. http://ampedstatus.org/network/members/flood3r/activity/33242/
Thank you for such great source material.
We would love to have you call in as a guest on our breakfast show on morning if you would be interested. We could obviously Skype etc about that if you are interested.
Best wishes and Peace Out.
D
