Wow! Kewl too see that a BBS has popped up again! That would leave some real posobilities for running older BBS's again! Think about it! It would be awsome too see cool BBSs back in the day , like Dune , Simarilian , Adventure's Tavern , and many others come back too life , via a Super Serial Card II and a CF card! Ofcourse , the passwords would still be in play , but would still most likely take new users , wow , that gives alot of ideas!

Very kewl , very kewl in deed Shock)

Info on the BBS that is supposed to be up and running?

Yep, you read the subject line correctly. A brand new Apple II BBS has gone online for the first time in years!

I give you:

The Age of Reason BBS
telnet://aor.retroarchive.org

Running GBBS Pro v1.3j
Proudly featuring the online adventure game Land of Spur as modified by Trajan, former sysop of Dura Europos.

New users have instant access to the game. The system is new and may still have a rough edge or two, so please have patience. If you have a problem with the BBS, please let me know!

Warning to people using generic telnet clients - the serial interface does not currently send the WILL ECHO telnet negotiation sequence, so on connect, iitt mmaayy llookk lliikkee yyoouu''vvee ggoott llooccaall eecchhoo ttuurrnneedd oonn......

I highly recommend using Syncterm which can be found here:http://syncterm.bbsdev.net/
There are pre-compile clients for Windows, OS X, Linux, *BSD and Solaris.

The Age of Reason - telnet:://aor.retroarchive.org

Is server down today?

I have been having a problem logging in the last couple of days. Whenever I enter the Land of Spur, I maybe get 2 minutes of play, before the BBS crashes out. Any reason why?
