   I connected to one the other day to see what TBBS was all about, because I   
   can't recall ever seeing one in my area back in the 90s. Anyway, my   
   impression of the software was exactly what you described. The message system   
   seemed clunky.   
      
   I feel like one of the main purposes of a BBS is the exchange of messages,   
   and I've always felt like so many packages just get that fundamental aspect   
   wrong, mainly with a poorly designed browsing/reading/writing interface.
