The BBS folks tended to give credit. One of our early articles was on this thing called a "GIF" (
) which allowed BBS posting. The Usenet folks did not give credit, at least at first. Eventually, there were Usenet songs written about my partner. I personally didn't post because the Usenet thing of thanking strangers for posting scans and being dicks to people posting work they actually created . . . well, it made me sad.
