Guys, I don't get it.

Were you all node sysops, or did your region just not have that last part — the point?

Zone:Net/Node.Point

I have had points, like 2:463/702.160 and then 2:463/131.160

But then later I became a Boss and got my own Node address 2:463/1161

I always knew the "point" was there, but never saw it actually used in my travels (..which finished in '90 or '91). I seem to recall the node lists at some point didn't have decimals, but perhaps my recollection is inaccurate.
I started as a point but after couple of years I become a node with a few points (mainly friends and family).
