• Hello from a new Sysop

    From Jamaica Joe@1:103/705 to All on Mon Jul 28 19:20:09 2025
    Just wanted to say hello and am glad to be part of the scene again. I'm another one of those returning Sysops from the 80's blah blah blah old times were awesome blah blah back for the nostalgia blah blah! :)

    Seriously, I'll be around a while with this new endeavor. I had no idea the bbs scene even survived until a few months ago. Have been studying Synchronet for a while now (ran a custom made in early 80s and then WWIV) and have all the desired doors going for me and my eight users (most of them being family) to play.

    If anyone wants to engage in some Global War or to smoke some newbies in Lord, come on over. We are all very consistent about taking our turns daily.

    Its good to have you back! I basicly run my BBS for me myself and I and to learn and to configure and to customize. just to have fun with technology and keep the spirit of what once existed before the internet alive =)
    I mean, synchronet is such a beast nowadays. I don't remember my remote access bbs in the 90s to have so many features.

    No sir, my name just came from an inspiration of a little beachside club I once visited in Northwest Florida back in the 80's. I used this handle & bbs name back in the Dallas BBS era and decided to stick with it, mostly because I'm too unoriginal to come up with something new. :)
