Any one have great memories from the BBS days? I remember running my first BBS. On a Vic-20, I wrote it myself. It was extremely linear, per se, but did offer menus and options. I was using the original Vic-Modem, 300 baud, and people had to call me first to say they wanted to connect to it. Then they would call me back with their modem, I would disconnect the handset and plug the cord into the modem (it wasn't auto dial/answer)...I eventually got a Commodore 64 with 4 1541 Drives and a 1 Meg drive that held tons of stuff. I mostly ran Ivory Joe BBS but did try CNET for a while until I just wanted something simple. I remember, sleeping in my room as a teen, hearing the drives access if someone called it during the night. Great times...
I eventually moved to an Amiga but never ran a BBS then. Just called them!
