   Not familiar with BBBS, but I think there should be a way to lock down message   
   numbers.  This is one reason why I make sure all my message base numbers are   
   strictly static.  Mystic can auto-add but it assigns a static number to every   
   BBS Conference that the sysop can't change.  Wildcat does assign a conference   
   number and it usually is static, but there are third party utils that can sort   
   the conferences which screw the QWK up.  Synchro has the ability to assign a   
   static or a dynamic if I remember correctly.  RA is dependant on the door   
   software you use.  BW did not have a way to assign a static # but OLMS did.   
      
   Every software that I have ran has the capability to assign a Static solution   
   for the conference numbers.  I know my USENET is a mess if you don't have the   
   conference name sorting turned on as I do add groups with no rhyme or reason.   
      
   I guess this is on topic because this has caused a lot of controversy in the   
   past.  :-)  But I would not turn away a QWK reader under any circumstances.
