  • Greetings from Canada, eh

    From Trancid@1:153/135 to Aaron Grasswell on Thursday, January 20, 2022 13:25:00
    I'm still using RA (2.62.1) and have everything pretty much up and
    running. Just fixing up my echo/netmail areas.

    I hope I'm not talkign to myself (although I do that too)... lol
    Looking forward to chatting with other RA SysOps and fans!
    Hey there I used to run a RA BBS Back in the 90's too. Hahha I used 2.50
    Pro 250 Node back then. Umm I'll check your system out not many RA
    Boards around these days!

    Hi Trancid,

    Cheers for logging into my board. :)
    I see we're down to 3 RA boards on the Telnet BBS Guide now...

    In the early to mid 90s I only had a single node ($10/month for a phone line was a lot for a high school student). lol
    I remember it was a pulse only line, no touchtone. ATDP to save a dollar on the line cost. lol

    I did use to run FrontDoor, Joe from Joe's Computer BBS actually helped me setup Front Door back then! It's amazing running into people I use to know decades ago who are still into this and even still running a BBS. :)

    D'Bridge is a great all-in-one solution now, I've had greart luck with it and the developer is awesome, helps with any issue that may pop up. I do wish it supported JAM natively, but maybe one day... (Nick? hint hint)
    :)

    Great to see activity on this echo!
