    I love BBSing in 2o21, almost as much as I did when I was a teenager in the 90s - hope you get your board going, but if you don't theres tons
    of GREAT options. Its really just finding your niche. TBH, you don't
    have to RUN a BBS... there are so many different communities, BBS types and boards that are already out there - what we really NEED is users,
    like you. :P However, if you get a system up I'll certainly check it
    out.
    Currently, I'm adding EVERY single DOS game in a file conference. :P I have a rad collection of Pin-Up art, photos and videos; all vintage. :P Cya around, mseifert!

    Yep, I found several good ones, but only one so far had a working mail door. TBT nothing turns me off as quickly as an out of the box bbs.. no personality.. then there's the other extreme.. a board that looks like the sysop has his time divided between trying to be elite, and popping zits.. I guess somewhere along the line the urge to be "Cool" disappeared once I got old.. (53 but still feeling 23).
