Hey everyone,
I've been restoring Shadowland BBS, a system I originally started in 1994, and it is finally back online.

I've cleaned up the nodes, repaired the menus and message areas, restored the ANSI presentation, and spent an unhealthy amount of time chasing bugs through the darker corners of Synchronet.
The system includes an optional line-by-line ANSI display intended to recreate the feeling of watching screens render over a 28.8k modem. Pressing any key returns it to full speed, before you start cussing out the SysOp.
The message and file areas are open, and the door-game section currently includes: Legend of the Red Dragon LORD II: New World TradeWars 2002 DrugLord Synchronet Minesweeper Synchronetris Dice Warz II Bubble Boggle Domain Poker Synchronet Blackjack Synkroban SynthKart Uber Blox
The BBS is still being expanded, so bug reports and suggestions are welcome. If you find a broken menu, mangled ANSI, or a demon hiding in the message base, leave me a private message before logging off.
New callers, curious visitors, and old-school BBS users are all welcome. Connect: shadowlandbbs.eu:23 - 2222 Protocol: TELNET/SSH Website:

Stay dark. Stay online.
