     Well, there is also "life outside the BBS". BBSing, like any other HOBBY,   
   should NEVER take priority over things like church, family, health, job, or   
   especially "honey-do's".    
      
     With having to deal with a whole slew of medical issues, including    
   degenerative disk disease in the spine, it's very difficult to sit at   
   the computer for long periods of time.   
      
    RS> What games do you enjoy that tend to have a problem attracting other   
    RS> users?   
      
     I know my BBS isn't the only one out there, but I'll admit that the   
   InterBBS ones tend to get more folks. I had originally played several   
   doors, including Trade Wars, L.O.R.D., plus many of the Sunrise Doors,   
   JNS Doors, and several others (I've got over 350 online).   
      
     But lately, with health and other issues, I just do the QWK Mail,    
   update the ham radio and weather data, and play only 2 of the "casino    
   games" on my BBS before I logoff. I wish I had more desire and energy,   
   as I used many of the doorgames to keep my mind sharp.
