to ALL re: BBS WARNING
|
|
|
|
I found this on the Stillwaters BBS message bases:
|
|
|
|
|
|
Sysops:
|
|
I come to you with a warning about a troublesome BBS called
|
|
Hi-Lights-aka-Remote Access, Not Just Another BBS. The phone number is
|
|
708-452-4417. The warning is that when you sign-up, your personal information
|
|
is broadcasted to everyone. Not only do they make slanderous remarks
|
|
about you but that they call your home up and cuss up a storm to whoever
|
|
answers,as in my case,my 7 year old. When one confronts the sysop,Chewbaca,
|
|
to delete any and all text involving one's personal info, he then resorts
|
|
to the same antics and slams the door in your face. His real last name is
|
|
Roraff, residing at 4019 Ozanam in Norridge, Il. Please, I ask of you,
|
|
in the name of a good clean hobby...Keep this BBS off any good BBS listing.
|
|
Thank you.
|
|
Bob Anderson
|
|
|
|
Take this warning at face value. Log onto this BBS at your own risk.

YOu may have already gotten this answer since I see your post is from
|
|
February, but there is a Chicago number...1-312-616-1071. Access can be a

little tricky, they seem to need a password.

|

Norridge is SMALL and a letter to the township or a trip over there
|
|
will do wonders. I have been to the city hall and it is nice. I also
|
|
know from this location that there are some pure looniy families living
|
|
in that area.

The practices of this BBS is one reason I have hardly been logging
|
|
onto new ones. Too many loonies out there and too much info is
|
|
given out on registration.

I need more HD space and don't want to go over the 120 meg I
|
|
have now. Anyone know the best file squeezers? I need one
|
|
to compress data and overlays etc also. Some program files
|
|
are megs and megs and I would like to segregate pgms and only
|
|
compress some (some might be slowed too much).

to WARD CHRISTENSEN re: BOOK
|
|
|
|
Dear Ward:
|
|
|
|
Thanks so much for your note.
|
|
I can respect your desire not to be interviewed, but I'd
|
|
like to change your mind in the only way I know how. That is, by
|
|
following your instructions.
|
|
My plan is to download the CBBS file you recommend on
|
|
Chinet, and to talk to Randy Seuss. I will also talk, next week,
|
|
to Dennis Hayes, who I understand worked closely with you on CBBS
|
|
in 1978, and get his story.
|
|
Only after that will I consider troubling you again, and
|
|
then only with a list of specific questions, posted here. I hope
|
|
to follow that up with a phone call. I'd encourage you at that
|
|
time to talk with Randy Seuss concerning my interview technique
|
|
and whether I'm worth talking to.
|
|
I'm sorry you had a bad experience with "Boardwatch" and
|
|
I don't want to add to it in any way. But I'm responsible for an
|
|
accurate portrayal of BBS history in my own book and hope I can
|
|
honor you with that, if nothing else.
|
|
I still hope to talk with you, at your convenience,
|
|
after I've done more homework. Until then, please accept my
|
|
thanks for your time, and for starting such a great industry.
|
|
Sincerely, Dana Blankenhorn (ph. 404-373-7634)

|
|
to PETE CANTELE re: R/HELP W/DESKJET PURCHASE
|
|
|
|
The best price can be found at Elek-Tek ($330 for the plain Deskjet).
|
|
The "/ higher" models have more built-in fonts, landscape printing and
|
|
are somewhat faster (3 ppm rather than 2; the difference comes from
|
|
grabbing the pages faster, not from increased CPS).

I deleted your message. "Access can be a bit tricky, it seems
|
|
to need a password". I'm sorry, but that doesn't sound like it is
|
|
MEANT to be published! It sounds private!

The biggest diff will be faster graphics printing, and landscape, in
|
|
the + and 500 over the plain DJ, also the 500 has a nice times font
|
|
built in (but only one size - a good "correspondence" size).

Unfortunately when I've asked about writing drivers, the answer is

always a very expensive Windows developer's kit of some sort.

to ALL re: 64-USER LAN BBS?
|
|
|
|
Any thoughts on the following project: a 64-user BBS, implemented as
|
|
4, 16M 486s running 16 copies of RBBS/PC under DesqView-386, Token Ring
|
|
LAN with Netware 3.11.
|
|
A 5th system will be the server - probably a Compaq SystemPro.

to WARD re: 64-USER BBS
|
|
|
|
Ward; It would seem to me that running 16 copies of the BBS on one machine
|
|
(even a 486) would be quite a feat for the machine. The disk I/O gets to be
|
|
a bottleneck. I run a 4 node BBS (one node local only) and with 3 people on
|
|
and me poking around, the network can slow down. I run 10mbps ethernet and
|
|
the server is a 33mhz-386 with a fast SCSI (15ms) hard disk. The SystemPro
|
|
would be faster, but your asking it to do 16 times as much. Gene Plantz runs
|
|
13 nodes on his BBS, and with over 10 people on, I get slower downloads, due
|
|
mostly to disk I/O I would guess. He runs Netware 386.

|
|
Ward; how about one of the Unix based BBS systems ? After all, they are
|
|
designed for multi-user access. Also, I think you would need far less
|
|
horsepower.

|
|
Which system is BETTER, BIX or Compuserve. My purpose is
|
|
general questions on the IBM AT clones, some PD software
|
|
etc. I can't seem to find an access number BIX, either
|
|
800 or otherwise. Anybody got info?
|
|
Thanks
