maybe since your bbs is such a gaming legend you should make your own league.
i used to join leagues but they were ran by guys who didn't know what they were doing so i dropped them all.

yeah we had a big drop off of users. even around covid.
I don't think they're coming back. These people who checkout 'retro' things and think they are so cool don't stick around.

I'm thinking of calling it quits.
The only thing that helps me make it through is my friendship with deuce.

I'm thinking of calling it quits.

I thought I called it quits back in 1996 when I left FidoNet and shut my PC BBS down. But then in 1999, I restarted my OLD Atari 8bit BBS on the internet and it has been going strong since. It runs on a PC under Atari emulation.

I think my health is the only thing that will make me quit at this point.

call me crazy, but i ran my bbs and bbses for the people. i provided a service. we don't have callers anymore. despite what some people lie about, we really do not have anything else than other sysops calling bbses. and a few randoms.

that taiwan bbs is the only bbs still going on strong in true form.

You might not, but this BBS has at least 4 participants, aside from myself,
who are not sysops. Three of them check, and often participate, in
echomail daily. The fourth plays LORD and posts some in the local areas.

My older DOS BBS has at least 3 regulars. Two are not sysops, and I don't think the third is. They mostly just play door games and don't call daily.

Yeah, that is way down from this time 30 years ago, but they do still exist.

3-4 people is the same as having no people in my book.
that's little or no activity.

your reply is exactly what i mean about sysops lying to themselves.

I'm lucky if I get 10 calls in a day between the two BBSes... and most are other sysops.

it's like people dont want it to be so so that's how they see it. it's some kind of weird denial.

I'd be in too if you started it back up again. I went offline before covid and a friend of mine asked me turn it back on during covid to get some of the old doors going again (including FE, but by the time I got it up most of the leagues were dead).

I'm sure I have a few people that would jump in.

That is about the same average here. I enjoy the message threads and read almost all of them silently, in the last few years I have started replying to a few of them. I am glad you and the others are still here. I do not like `social' media. I only use it to connect to distant friends and family, and
to point a few people to my BBS so I can have fun with a few door games I have been playing since the 90s. I am glad you all still operate a BBS.

If I miss reading social media for a day or two, I don't normally feel like
I have missed anything. If I don't check the BBS for a day or two, I do
feel like I have missed something. ;)

Same here,

I check my BBS 3 times a day. I can remember a time when it had 20 or more calls a day and now 6 is a heavy day. I am ok with that. I am glad I still have a dozen of my regulars to play games with and message. Telnet makes it possible for me to check it on the go, so I really like that. I had it offline for a few years but still got news and some message feeds and I enjoyed it more than social media ever. On social media I feel like someone is always watching me `0-0` I hope you are all alright and in time I will come to visit each of your BBS's.
