Hey all! Just wanted to re-invite y'all to the ongoing development adventure that is my 100% custom built web-based, terminal-style BBS. I took a break for a month to pursue employment... which sadly didn't pan out so my continued, prolonged unemployment is a great excuse to get back into BBS development!
I WAS aggressively removing unused account, so if you previously joined, your account was probably scrubbed. I removed that aggressive auto-removal (for the most part). You still need an invite code to create an account (just to keep things tidy) so message me if ya want one. :)
I recently also removed the aggressive content deletion for the features like the message board... because it is basically deleted everything every time their was a lull... and, since we are a small community lulls are inevitable and I was sad to lose previous contributions.
I'm still trying to figure out a way to incorporate door games... since it's all custom, right now I think it would also require 100% custom rewrites of existing games... which is daunting...
I'd love input for new features... It's been an interesting UX challenge to try and develop things for a VERY minimal, command-line style terminal interface. submitted by /u/ThePunkyRooster [link] [comments]
