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?

Nah, not really BBS-intros, but now and then there would be a BBS-demo, but something that was rare and not so common.

Another item for the trivia section of the entry.

I wasn't involved in the BBS-scene at all so I will mainly stay out of this discussion.
Just some 5 cents regarding the 2 above posts; I personally think it would be cool to have the possibility to connect a release like Warez Aquarium BBS-intro to the actual BBS WAQ.

Maybe have a general "assosciate file", for BBS related items such as advertisements in the form of demos or intros. Or for "buffers" etc.

Leave away the "co-sysops" imho. Too confusing in many cases, sometimes there were 10 people having co-sysop access or even more.

so because some boards had many cosysops, we should remove the info from history? I think not.
