Old musicians never die, they just decompose?
This is, in fact, quite true. :-)

Atreyu you definitely have a point! Lol

I remember when he was interviewed on some radio station or whatever,
and he said something along the lines of not having "any lines" to
snort, so he did so with the ashes of his dead father.

I would LOVE to see a Willie Nelson concert.
Last one I went to was 3 or 4 years ago to see Burton Cummings of the Guess Who... seeing "These eyes" done live, just him at the piano, was
a treat.

Hi Jay
Welcome to fsxNet and thanks for taking the time to have a play with BBS.
I hope you have fun poking/prodding at BBS software etc.
The group here are good sorts who will offer info/help if you ask for it.
Regards, Paul
Thanks for the welcome Paul, I started BBSing at 300 baud and was really stylin' at 1200 baud back in the day! I had Off The Hook running in the earl '80s as a teen which I wrote in BASIC on a Heathkit computer. Fun times for sure and I thought I'd resurrect the old board now that I'm getting old. :o) I'm sure not any good at ANSI art (never was) but I'm getting everything set up without too much problem. And, yes, I am having fun. JayDawg
If you're looking for commission work contact ZeusII. I'll send his work email if you ask for it.

That brings back a few memories for me also :)
I started at 1200 baud also and 2400 was amazing when I got on to those speeds, but once we hit 14.4 and the others it was far nicer. I enjoyed the different sounds of the modem handshakes as the speeds changed.
BASIC for me was on a ZX81 and then a BBC Micro model B
ANSI ART I suck at but really appreciate the work folks that play in
this space can do... which reminds me I need to hatch a bunch of art
packs out to FSX_ARTS soon... I'm way behind.

"Off The Hook"... that has got to be one of the best names for a BBS I have ever heard. Nice one!
And a Heathkit too!! Wow. I remember my friend's dad had a Heathkit and I remember it had a huge floppy, something like 8 inches. That was the
very first computer I played a computer game on I think. We played Colossal Cave Adventure on it and I remembered the phrase "XYZZY" for
the rest of my life after that game.

That's how BBSs worked back int he day, more busy signals than
connections it seemed. Lol. Thanks for the shout out!
You'd set up a handful of your favorite BBSes to gang-dial, and it'd try them all in a queue until one of them answered. I'd be in the other room and hear Telix doing it's connect sound, come sit down and find out--- poindexter FORTRAN Done ---
which board answered. Let's see, is this the 1337 board, the shareware board run by a creepy old guy, the underground board or the board with Every Fido Echo Ever?
Interestingly, of all the boards I called back in the 90s, none
of them were on Fidonet. In fact, none really carried FTN! I
remember reading .nfo files talking about cybercrime but never
actually saw a board carrying it myself.

Me, either. From 1987 (when I first started BBSing) until c1993 or later, if a board in the area I lived in was on a network and I was a caller, they were almost always on the GT Power Network. That was not an FTN.
I didn't really get all that involved on Fidonet until I started carrying it around 2000.

Interesting.. I remember multiple (tempted to say many) BBSes in my area that
carried FidoNet. I started running my own BBS in 1994, and I felt very late to
the party when I eventually added FidoNet to my BBS in 1998.

it was called back then. Ironically, there were Opus boards and, IIRC, FIDO boards around the area but they didn't carry any network message areas.

I found an old nodelist from 1991, when I started realitycheckBBS. The
San Francisco bay area had to have over 100 BBSes listed.
