   I suppose this is a big part of the problem, so few people are   
   involved in these old BBS type systems that software is rarely   
   updated for it.   
      
   Maybe as the Big Social sites get less popular they will make   
   a bit of a comeback.   
      
   Funny, thinking back, there were 6 or 7 BBS systems in town here   
   but all limited to local users unless someone wanted to call in   
   by (then) expensive long distance to access them, and most did   
   not have many users. Then the Global BBS feeds came out where you   
   could talk to people all over the world and it was amazing at the   
   time. These days that wouldn't mean anything to most people.
