General chat about Amiga topics / The potential revival of the BBS scene in the wake of the retro hype!
« Last post by Mike-1706 on December 31, 2025, 04:48:09 PM »Hello dear friends of the BBS scene. 
My BBS fever was rekindled at the turn of the year 2022/2023. About 15 months later, I also opened a forum on this topic! This forum is aimed at all BBS enthusiasts in general, so it's not exclusively Amiga-specific, which doesn't mean there aren't any Amiga BBS programs, tools, utilities, and doors available! Therefore, I invite everyone to join if the BBS bug is still flickering within you!
There's a small catch, though, because I'm a person who likes to be transparent! You can only register if you don't use a VPN, proxy, relay, or Tor.
Why is that?
It's simply because I want to exclude certain countries that have no connection to this topic whatsoever.
And unfortunately, these people have nothing else on their minds but infiltrating or sabotaging websites.
On the other side you can't build a community if everyone's masked, right?
You wouldn't let a masked person into your house, would you?
So please dont't misunderstand this way...
It serves solely to protect the forum, the work done on it so far, and the registered users there! Nothing else!
So... what's the main goal behind this "project"?
- Finding like-minded people on this topic.
- Exchanging experiences
- Collecting and presenting programs, utilities, tools, and doors related to this topic
- And possibly revitalizing the BBS scene.
Of course, registering and using this forum is completely free!
What's missing? Of course, you!
www.sysops-finest.org is the address...
I would be delighted if we could bring as many people as possible from back then... and of course from today, back together around one table!
