----------------------------------------
yup! last time we lost this chapter
somewhere. it wasn't in the mag. i can't
remember why but anyway this time it's
here. among the usual shorties we got 2
bigger ones. one will have a own chapter
and the other one will you find here.

first the reaction by PAT/PARALYZE. it
is about my question about the import-
ance with memberstatuses that was in
issue#8.

                -- -- --

just readin' #8, memberstatus-chapter.
i've never really understood who is
interseted in looking through their
statuses. i only load these chapters in
order to see whether our own status is
in there or not.

but normally - memberstatuses published
in mags are always some weeks old, and
of what use are they at all??? the only
reason i can see why somebody would send
you a PRO reaction for the member-
statuses is that he wants to see his own
group's status published - just as me.

but apart from that, i wouldn't even put
the statuses into the news-chapter but
leave it away completely.

surely: you'll have less blocks of text
then...

by the way, i also dont see the
IMPORTANCE of news like this:

"the rumours that XXX left YYY are
wrong. XXX is STILL a member of ZZZ!!"

WHO CARES? (except of xxx's contacts who
know it anyway.)

by the way, IOPOP, you've got humour!!!
(but i don't pay a single sek for it,
hehe(compliment!))
now lemme continue readin', don't waste
my time!

                            PAT/PARALYZE


iopop: you are right, memberstatuses are
just a way to waste away some blocks and
make the mag bigger. i remember that a
wise man in the scene once said to me
that making a mag is not just filling up
blocks of text.
you are like me, you look through the
memberstatuses just to see your own name
and group! this time we don't have any
memberstatuses. and that's because we
don't have any free chapters for it and
the other thing is that it's just a
waste of blocks.

 well, now over to the usual shorties.

              - -- --- -- -

oh, i just love this magazine!
maybe it's becoz i'm a former jam
member... i don't know... but issue#9
was really nice!i would like to see more
"deep" articles by tchad, thank you!

                      /TABASCO/FAIRLIGHT


iopop: well, i don't know why you like
jamaica that much(we are the best!) as
i'm no doctor. but if you want you could
try calling one and ask them. wonder
what they would say?!
anyway, if you are very lucky there
might be a not so deep chapter about
fractals written by TCHAD this time.



sail ho iopop!
great mag. i like it very much. of many
mags around yours is one of my absolute
favourites. issue nine was great.
i liked the texts and especially the
logo. one thing you could improve are
the news. they are too old.
anyway, jamaica is a cool mag, so keep
on doing it. how do you like the amount
of sheets i spread? hope you're lucky!
ok pal, let me end this reaction, as no
time! bye... yours,
                     LEECH/COMIC PIRATES


iopop: cool that you like our mag.
well, yes the news are the major problem
in this mag. always too old.
i'm very pleased with the amount of
sheets you spread. keep that up!!



nice mag, maybe release it more often
and keep it going!

                    signed CELTIC/GENLOG

iopop: well, if we tried to release it
more often then i think the quality
would decrease. and i like quality more
then quantity!



very nice mag, except the menu was a bit
ugly i thought. lots of nice chapter
though, and a good board chapter, too!
how about having composer, coder &amp;
graphician charts? this mag definetly
deserves to keep going. keep up the good
effort guys!

                          /DRE/BAD KARMA



iopop: cool that you liked issue#7.
i didn't! the best part of that issue
was the board chapter. too bad TABASCO
joined fairlight. as it was he who made
that chapter. well, about the other
charts, i believe that i have said this
before but there won't be such charts in
this mag.



it's a very nice new votesheet you have
got here! also the outfit is cool, and
not to forget the text! keep up the good
work.

                  yours
                        GIGABYTE/NO NAME

iopop: couldn't you find out any other
way to write this reaction? there was
some space left on the backside. (he
wrote it on the white parts of the logo)
(hehe)
cool you like our mag!



in the news chapter you stated that i
got kicked from slash... that's wrong!
i left the suckers to join afl'70!
if you remember who told you this lie
then please inform me, thanx!

                 /SPECTATOR/XENON/AFL'70

iopop: well, i don't remember who said
that you were kicked. believe it was on
one of the several votesheets lying
around here in my room. but as you know
i'm NO god!



nice mag, also nice gfx. although i
liked the logo you had in issue#7 more
then the logo by frenchflair. but ofcoz
that's a taste-matter. keep jamaica
going, dudez.

                        /SOUNX/CROSSLINE



iopop: thanx! yes, the taste is indivi-
dual. and that's good i think.



jamaica is a cool little magazine!
i like to read it but it could be
quicker to be published. mega charts
(for swappers especially.) are cool -
do them! keep on doing jamaica.

                             /GOP/SHAZAM


iopop: nice reaction. well, i told about
the speed thing some lines up. cool that
you like your megacharts.



yo jamaica staff! the new outfit of your
mag is very nice. the text was also nice
but it has abit short text. please write
a bit more text and go on for much more
issues!

                          /THE ALIEN/BCD


iopop: well, we try to do what we can
and i believe we cannot make more.



now a reaction about the country favies.


please do NOT drop this cute chapter
away to the graveyard!
well, this is just my opinion, it's your
mag and your choice to decide.

                  /TOMMY BACKWOODS/PANIC


iopop: well, it's up to the readers. if
you want to have a country favies chart
and if more people react and say that
they like it then we might start with it
again. this issue we got a the counrty
favies from poland.


                -- -- --

now we close this chapter and open it
up again when it's time to see what you
like this issue. tell me what you like
and what you don't like! it keeps me
motivated.




        thanx for you attention!
