Through my vast experience of reading and collecting G-philes, I have learned of manytopics depicted within files. Just as well, I have been misguided by "fraudulent philes". he authors of these files can be classified by at least one of the following catagories…
a: Needed to write a phile to attempt to please his favorie SysOp. b: Didn't have much if any actual experience with his topic. c: Needed to build a collection for trading. d: I just a plain geeky asshole.
Since we're not all geeky assholes who write fony philes, this would just classify th minority. The following compilation focuses mainly on philes written by non-geeky assholes (i. just geeks or assholes) in contrast to the elite group of unpronounced "REAL G-PHILE AUTORS" (until now). Let us now venture into the heart of this file...shall we?
