I just keep getting script kiddies but that's from the lack of doing anything
on my part. I also don't really advertise my BBS. I haven't updated my
Telnet BBS List listing in quite some time but I'll wind up removing that
eventually because of how Dave Perrussel treated me on Facebook (I won't go
into it here). I am just too busy right now taking care of family matters and
working. I was called in today (it's a 90 minute round trip) to check on some
servers since we had severe weather this weekend and two electric poles got
knocked over, putting both of my employer's local factories offline for nearly
eight hours.
I've noticed an uptick of questions about Linux and OS/2 BBSing that I have
been receiving in other lines of communication (netmail, email, Skype). It
seems there's more people putting in boards. I've been seriously thinking
about putting a POTS line in even at the outrageous cost of $50+ a month here
locally with taxes (the US has the highest-taxed telecommunications system in
the world). But, with that being said, when I did have POTS, I got a lot of
local callers interestingly...
I'm hoping things will calm down enough for me to work on my hobbies more.
Just working, sleeping and repeating the process is not very fun.
Later,
Sean
