      EO> I'm just curious what everyone's favorite BBS software is? It's not my       EO> intent to start a flame war/argument, I'm just curious what BBS software       EO> you like and why. I've been running Synchronet (in Windows) since 2007,              I have a pretty long list of favorites. Since I started BBSing and sysoping        back in the early 80s on the Apple // side of things, there have been many       systems that stood out.              One of the first on the PC side of the house that will always be held near and       dear is WWIV. To me, WWIV started many other favorites and one of the main       reason I went with it back then was the ability to have the complete source       code once registered. You can turn it into just about anything you can       imagine once you learned how to code.              That being said, I still run a highly modded classic WWIV system and always       will. There are several other BBS packages that I really like. Mystic would       have to be top of my list if I was starting out and wasn't running my classic       WWIV. I have even considered running a second BBS using it and still might.              So here is a list of some of my favorites:              WWIV, Mystic, Renegade, Oblivion/2, Vision/2, Celerity, Forum, Iniquity, and       Synchronet.               - Mark              --- WWIVToss v.1.51         * Origin: http://www.weather-station.org * Bel Air, MD -USA (1:261/1304.0)    |
