BBS entries

A request for CSDB would be to include Bulletin Boards as an entry. These BBS'es can be assosciated to groups and in some cases actual productions, such as "war demos" or things from the old days such as buffers (1980s).

It is a real shame that the Boards are not represented here even though they played a major part in the scene, especially in the older days.

Wares Galore, Data shack, Data shack II, The Forum,
Prowl's Place, Terminal Obsession, The Fountain of Lamneth, The Home for the Addicted Pirate, Channel Zero, Dream Park,
Tunnel of Wares etc etc.

What do you think?

Indeed. Very important to add this.

Perff, when will these features be implemented?

But would that credit the ones posting their gfx in the subs or just the ones who had their gfx implemented in the logon/off/menus of the board?

I mean, most phun things usually happened/happens in the CG-subs (like these days, when Jucke, Dino and Cmp have their spammingsessions at Antidote) why it would be wrong to not credit it. On the other hand, if everyone posting "gfx" should be credited, I guess a majority of all users could be credited as boardgraphicians.

Heh, that was my 64th post :-)

Anyways, what about buffers? I see no one fancied my idea of posting them on the existing CG-boards. Is there any way of uploading them here?

on an almost unrelated note, i'd love to see dino, jucke and cmp to release their c/g in a pack or two.

Bordeaux uploaded a few good ones some time ago. DCMP also did some neat stuff. And more.. I dunno if there are any plans for a pack though. I guess you have to call, easy as that.

I would say the BBS-graphician in relation to a "BBS"-entry should only be those painting graphics FOR the BBS. Those people making little piccies and things in the subs, whilst nice, is unrelated to direct BBS credits in my opinion.

I agree with Jazzcat. I think it should only be for the artist doing the major art for a bbs. I wish I still had all my screens. I drew many, many logon gfx for many, many boards.

Perff, where are j00?? :)

One-Eyed-Pirate: Heyas! nice to see you here. Damn, really pity that you lost those screens, I have some buffers I kept from the first version of The Forum and also some from Down By Law. But these are relatively new boards (1988 onwards) compared to some of the ancient rulers.

So happy that the BBS is no longer ignored here as part of this database. \ö/
