please post on the bottom.

we dont have any users so i dont think this guy will suffer much.
But if someone is running a bbs they should keep it up at all hours.
and if you can afford it, run it on hosted server instead of at home.

If you have a legitement BBS then yes he allows you to list your BBS.

Well it's probably a good idea to run your system 24/7. it's easier to keep users that way. they try to connect and cant get on and think you are down.

Sorry people were nasty about it, they could have taken a better route.

this is the stuff the same people accuse me of doing all the time.

I actually thought it was sort of cool. Gives that throwback vibe to the
late 1980s or so when a lot of the Commodore BBSes in my area could only be accessed if you got up early enough to catch them online. ;)

100% agree. We had to have much more patience back then. I remember war dialing BBSes for quite a while before the phone line freeing up to my favorite BBSes: Pirates Inn, Rats Nest, The Nunnery .... A city favorite in Colorado was Reggae Land. It was a highly customized C-Net BBS on a C64. It was a maze of menus along with a trippy/hilarious story that guided you; Rarely did I find the main menu. After reading this thread, I just had to look it up ... pulled this off the internet and thought I'd share ... Not every BBS had to be open 24x7 even if they could; it was the theme, the sysop, and the content when one hit the menus that mattered most. If one wants to relive the glory days of BBSing with a limited hour dialup; I'm all for it!

"One of the largest computer bulletin board systems in Colorado, "R.L. Systems," popularly known as Reggae Lane B.B.S. provided pioneering early Internet access to e-mail and Usenet and Fidonet newsgroups, founded in 1984 by Lane R. Ellis using a 300 baud modem on a Commodore 64 computer running customized C-Net software and later on an Amiga 1000 running BBS-PC! software. R.L. Systems received thousands of callers from around the world, provided support and software downloads for professional computer users, and in 1990 was honored to be named the #1 B.B.S. in the State of Colorado by Chet Solace and his Final List of worldwide B.B.S. rankings. R. L. Systems was also frequently listed in Computer Shopper magazine. Among Reggae Land's users and fans was Dr. Ralph Slutz (1917-2005), a world-class scholar, physicist, and a computer pioneer, who in the 1940s was a principal engineer of the IAS and the SEAC computers."
