I miss BBS's!!!

[icbrkr]

I ran my BBS, mostly continuously, from 1992-2008.  It's only down right now since I have a 2 year old kid that I have to attend to  I'm looking into Amiga BBSs (last ones were C64/PC based) but so far I haven't found one I really liked yet.... or could get running for that matter.

I hope you see the irony of posting a comment like that on an Amiga board...

You said it before I did.  I still use a C64 - and gobs and gobs of other old computers.  Why?  I don't know.  I like playing with older systems and getting them to do things they weren't really meant to do.

Obviously it's not my main system but who cares if I still use it?

give my bbs a call have a look at amiga cnet bbs software can help you with settign it up as well

Sure, I'll check it out.  I'm looking at Cnet (I can only find 3.x on Aminet), DLG (what I used to run from 1993-1995), and some others.

Checking it out right now, leeching via Zmodem on my A600.  Oldschool ftw!

DLG is free now (with source available), and on Aminet now.  Give Zeus BBS a try as well, it's what I use on my SAM 440 and it works extremely well (and is only like $25 now).  FAME is also free now, along with a couple others.

CNet is still very popular, but I've had an extremely difficult time trying to get ahold of the darned thing in any modern 5.x version.  All emails I've sent have been ignored, even after stating I'd be happy to pay for the software, lol.

DLG seems pretty fussy on what it requires to get it to run... I've pretty much given up on it at this point.

I've found the 3.x of CNET and 4.x, but yeah, 5.x has eluded me.  Cnet's familiar to me since I ran Image for years on the C64.  Does Zeus have a webpage?
