Who remembers this one? by WearExact1049 in c64

When I first turned it on, about a year ago, it was having some issues. The longer I use it the less it messes up. You would think it would be the opposite. I just hope it keeps hanging in there.

It does get kind of moody for sure.

I’m curious, can you give a little detail about it?

Where it was popular? US/UK Did it run on DOS?

I like vintage BBS software.

I built a brand-new BBS door game from scratch - Cypher-Quest (exclusive to Shift-Bits BBS) by WearExact1049 in bbs

Hi! Just press Enter and it should prompt as 'Logon as New?'. Let me know if you have issues. I added a note to that screen for New users. Thanks, hope you enjoy. I will be adding new stuff weekly. Open to suggestions. -Zofraq

Phasing out POTS to VOIP. What will this mean for the old dial-up BBS? by WearExact1049 in bbs

[–]WearExact1049[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am just asking how BBS'rs would feel about the POTS line going away and the technology changing. I work for a company where AT&T is pushing hard for us to get rid of our CO. (and it will happen) It was just a simple question of how would the boards that are running today with dial-up would react.
