NEWS AND OTHER PRINTABLE INFO
-----------------------------
As you can see the format has undergone another set of changes,
hopefully for the better. Your comments can and do make a
difference. It was through the suggestions of different users
that I added two of the new features to the listing, if anyone
can think of any other headings they'd like to see for the
local section, please let me know and I'll work it in, space
permitting. I've already had to chop off the sysop names part
just to make room for the SOLONONET section.
I've been noticing that some indescriminate persons have been
uploading portions of this zipped archive to bulletin boards,
apparently in an attempt to increase their ratio. While I do
not mind having others upload and spread my list, I'd
appreciate it greatly if the original zipped archive were
uploaded in its entirety.
The listing should (hopefully) continue to appear every month on
the first. Last month was an exception and hopefully I won't
get burdened down in the future with work and other things that
prevent me from publishing a list. Sorry to everyone who tried
to find last months' listing and couldn't.
If you use DOS EDIT to view this file and print it, I've added a
new feature that'll prevent the file from printing all the way to
the bottom of the paper. You'll notice a blank area between
METAL ZONE NODE 3 and 4, this will (obviously) print the same
way as it appears on the screen and leave a blank space at the
bottom of page 1 and at the top of page 2. Then, if you'll use
your mouse to highlight the text starting at the top of the page
and continuing through the bottom of the local section, and then
click on FILE and select PRINT and PRINT SELECTED TEXT ONLY,
just that part of the file will print and you'll have a neat,
local BBS listing. If you decide to print the entire list the
rest of it won't be setup for margins at the top and bottom.
**************************************************************************
DISCLAIMER--
The author of this listing makes NO claim as to the fitness for use
of any of the BBS systems listed within.Some systems offer materials,
adult in nature, which some users may find offensive and disgusting.
If you logon to such a system and find the subject matter gross, or
otherwise disgusting, it is your responsibility to hangup and not
call back.
It it the author's purpose to provide information to the general
public on all systems in the local area. Information in the local bbs
section may be incomplete or contain innacuracies which will be dealt
with in future publications. The information contained in this file
shall be updated on an as-needed basis. Users and/or Sysops are
encouraged to leave me E-mail containing accurate updates. The Author
apologizes to the system operator(s) of any bulletin boards which may
accidently find themselves in the inactive listing. While I make all
reasonable efforts to ensure the accuracy of this listing, if your
board is down for a substantial period of time and/or I am unable to
confirm its existance it is possible to be listed as 'dead'. The
only remedy the Author shall offer is to publish an updated edition
within a reasonable amount of time to correct an error which has been
brought to my attention and which might adversely effect the user
base of a bulletin board system if not otherwise corrected.
Users are encouraged to upload this file to any local system,
PROVIDED that the ORIGINAL zipped file is uploaded and THE ORIGINAL
name of the file is used (ie, BBS01mmm.ZIP where mmm is the first
three characters of the month).
AND FURTHERMORE...
Like most of you, I'm pretty sick and tired of calling up different
BBS's and looking at outdated BBS listings. I know it's a lot of work
trying to verify a BBS list every few weeks for innacuracies plus
trying to keep a board looking sharp and running smoothly. So...I
have contacted several boards in the local area and downloaded their
lists. When and where possible, I have gone through my compiled list
and verified each number. Boards which have gone out of service will
be found in the Dead section. It is possible that a board which has
been out of service for quite some time may still appear in this
section. The reason being that it is quite possible that some BBS is
still showing this board as being active, and as long as this is the
case I will continue to list it in the Dead section. I will update
this list as new info is made available to me. If any of you have
info I missed, or if I accidently mispelled a name, entered a wrong
Baud rate,etc... Please leave me a message on the BBS and I'll update
my list and resubmit it. Although I have listed other BBS's which are
a toll call for me(Travis AFB), for the most part they remain
untested. Should you have first-hand knowledge of these boards, or
others, please leave me a message on the board. One further note,
there is no personal bias against any board in this listing,I attempt
to present the facts and only the facts.
NOTE TO SYSOPS-Feel free to allow users to access this file DIRECTLY
from your bulletin menu. The February listing contains a new file,
which was done with THEDRAW and is ANSI compatible. This file, named
'BULLx.BBS' is similar to the 'BBS.TXT' file you are now reading, but
is shortened and includes color. Replacing the 'x' with a number
(for WILDCAT! systems), it can be placed in your bulletin sub
directory and users can call it directly from the bulletins
menu. Users will also be able to download the full version, which can
then be printed. This file is updated on a monthly basis and
therefor reflects accurate information for area BBS's. You may make
any changes you feel are necessary to this file(ie, customize colors,
add/delete boards as changes occur, etc...). As long as I am given
proper credit as the author you have creative freedom to edit its
contents to give it that custom look for your board, or modify it so
that it'll work on your board (I've only tested it with WILDCAT!).
Thankyou....Steven Peterson aka Quark
