   Hello Ed!   
      
   Java and JavaScript are completely different things. I'll let you research   
   that.   
      
   Just google for "online java games" and go from there.   
      
   One place that I found worked really well is pogo.com. The last time i looked   
   at   
   it was over 5 years ago.  Meanwhile, they've changed the service a bit, and   
   seems to support previously registered users only now.   
      
   This one is quick, and allows immediate play:

   Sounds like he has a limited understanding of BBSes.  Games on BBSes are   
   traditional, blocky, ascii, etc.. types.  Some are based on animations, some   
   are   
   text-based like RPG's.  But many are implemented quite nicely.

   Today, we access BBSes via Telnet.
