I've been playing SR for a while, but I've never been a GM. After going to college and moving away from my old GM I've realised that I never learned anything about decking or rigging. I don't have a clue where to start. I've read through the book on it four or five times and I just can't seem to get the idea's to stick. It would be really nice if someone could just help me out with a breif post of a run or something.

Something like if Johhny(low-level deker, just starting) was going to crack into the neighbors line and download his messages. What would he need? How would he do it? What would he have to access and what security would he have to overcome? I would be forever gratefull to whoever helps me out on this.

And as for rigging, am I making it more complex then it really is? I seem to try and weigh it down with more rules then I think are nessary. Is it just a few mods to vehicle combat (when useing drones)? It's just another thing I can't get my mind around.
