• Yet Another Old Sysop Checking In

    From BBS ( /u/emei2 https://www.reddit.com/user/emei2 ) to All on Sat Apr 4 05:06:12 2026

    I ran a BBS called Network XXIII way back in the day. It ran on a 486 using the Waffle BBS system and I wrote my own interface between waffle (which embodied Usenet) and Fidonet. I was a node off of First Circle. I also made sure to find a way to enable the downloading files every way I could think of.
    I also created as a side project a BBS called Luna Authority that ran on an Apple //c with a 65802 CPU. The BBS was written from the ground up in Mad Apple FORTH.
    Back in those days I also created a hypertext dictionary (using a commercial hypertext creation tool, not the Web) of the Fidonet protocol but one of the copyright holders refused to let me release it. submitted by /u/emei2 [link] [comments]
