Greeted with a sword picture (ascii), glorifying Sparta (what is this "Established 650 BC"?), not utf-8 but only "us-ascii". This doesn't smell good vibes to me.

Sorry but pass.

This applies to the protocol, not to the file being transfered by the protocol. The file format is UTF-8, but the protocol is ASCII.
