    Hi John,

    Thank you so much. Happy to be here!

    You're welcome. Looking forward to seeing more activity on this network and your BBS is a great addition. Always glad to see new people from other parts of the world rather it close or really far away.

    How long have you been into the scene of BBSing? Certainly didn't have difficulty connecting to this network. Thank you for your patience while I got things going again. I've been active since the end of 2009. Returned from 92/93 when a person out of the blue e-mailed me and asked me if I had Tradewars 2002 setup. Not having a board on-line at the time, I was curious to see how things have changed since dial-up. Found Synchronet and was able to get registered at the time. Shifted many times between Windows and Linux, I finally found a rock steady server of Ubuntu from a friend of mine that was dedicated solely to BBSing/networking. The server isn't at home where I am so I don't have the worry of if my computer is shut off or if I want to do something that requires a lot of resources.

    Much thanks to the BBSing community for their time of showing me the ropes again and getting things going. I appreciate it all as I continue to have many more years; technology willing that is.

    I ran a WildCat DOS bbs from 1990-1993 in Miami Beach, FL. then I was running a
    Renegade bbs and WildCat WinServer till around 1996 when I moved up here to NY. I got
    back into it about a year ago and was running Mystic for a little bit but went back to my
    1st love of WildCat since I still had all the licensing. I am running TW2002 now
    unfortunately very underutilized but hope to change that soon.

    Thanks again for bringing me on!

    I don't know. Wildcat! never seemed to interest me. Why pay so much for
    a product when you can get the same thing with a lot more for free? I've
    seen a few Wildcat! BBSes; they've seemed nice... I did however, enjoy Renegade software back in the day. I remember as a kid, requesting a
    photo I.D. for adult access and I got at least 20-30 I.D.'s in the mail.
    lol... seriously... I guess once professional, always professional. I
    was before my time back then. Now with everything coming on so fast,
    there is so much to explore. I enjoy Mystic a lot also. There are so
    many mods you can add to it; just like SBBS. I remember the first time
    I installed Mystic for Linux. It installed like a breeze. I enjoyed it.
    It might have been because I had some experience; which was probably the
    case. I'll have to check out your TW2002. I enjoy that door game so
    much. I enjoy it even more when players aren't using third-party programs
    to get ahead in the game. I feel that these programs make the game a
    bit boring as it becomes too easy to win. I've always like the challenge
    of doing things.
