   Old VBBS SysOp looking for new software   
   04 Aug 16 21:06:21   
   
   Hello.  I'm an old SysOp from back in the late 80's thru to the mid 90's.  I   
   ran a BBS in Marion, Ohio called Deafened Psychosis.  At that time I was   
   using the handle of Weird Al.  I ran VBBS most of that time.  While I'm   
   nostalgic for the old days, I am realistic about the future and I can't see   
   myself using VBBS, even though it's better than it's ever been.  Mystic   
   appears to be the much better option, especially now that I've been digging   
   into Linux and Raspberry Pi projects the last few months.  I still have all   
   of my old ANSi art (something I loved to do) and I'm looking to connect back   
   into the BBS community, as well as the messaging networks, like FidoNet that   
   I used to participate in on my BBS.  Not sure whether I'll even use the old   
   name or handle (I should), but I'm looking to download the software and get   
   started ASAP.
