When you get to the point of asking said question, it no longer matters: just have another.

basically, at certain prompts, you can't recieve any messages.
however, say, if you sit on the dock for a while, and then pop off, and you have a lot of fig hits, fed talk, etc.. you will get spammed to jesus as soon as you lift.
It's horribly annoying.

ISP allows you to send/receive messages at prompt that you don't with the default setting. One use of ISP is to plock on a sector - the default setting does not allow you to do this and still receive messages. There are other tactics also when ISP is on.

Too bad it was not a global setting. 25 games to change.

Sigh it is done...
