    Hi all,
    So far I have only checked out Synchronet as a system for running a bbs.
    For those who have tried other systems out meaning more than one what other ones have you tried and what ones have you found harder / easier to configure from a messaging system prospective?
    I don't really do any door games on my system as of yet really so mostly I focus on connecting to Fidonet Fsxnet and Micronet so far.

    I try to stay away from PC style board. I run 3 different Commodore boards. C-Net is the program, but a version for the Amiga, C128 and C64 is what I run. Some are on real hardware modernized. Some on emulated on Windows. Not the easiest, but deffently different than the mainstream.
