I miss my old BBS days. They were some of the best. I got into the BBS scene towards the end in the early 90s before the Internet was anything. The first modem I ran was a Commodore 1670 (I think that was the model number.) at 1200 baud on my A500. I had a Supra 2400 baud and then graduated to a Supra 14.4k on my A500 and my Tandy TL 1000 286.
I helped a friend run a CNet BBS. I also helped several friends run Renegade BBSes as well. I tested all kinds of BBS software back in those days as well. In point of fact, on my old Tandy TL1000 286 is a fully fuctional copy of the May 96 version of Renegade. I had it completely setup for my own BBS, and was working on trying to setup a small message network along the lines of FidoNET. My old personal webpage was styled along the Renegade BBS look.
I would love to see an old school BBS, no matter how I had to connect to it. I can still remember all of the BBS types, from the good (Renegade and VBBS, and I have an archive for VBBS 6.14 as well.) to the bad (Opus and PCBoard).
