BBS
Why not include a section for BBS' as well? It's a big part of the scene that's not sufficiently supported by CSDB so far. |

I was thinking the same thing just the other day.

And what would you post? old BBS' or ones that are still around?

The ones still around? That would be quickly accomplished. No, I am rather thinking of the same system as behind the other entries of the database. The boards featuring their (co-)sysops and the groups they were associated with. I am missing this feature and cannot see why it is not included. |

Why not just put it in the trivia box? |

Does not always work, because if I wanna look up a certain BBS' history and record (let's say The Dungeon) and I neither know that The Alchemist was running it nor what groups it hosted... What am I supposed to do? Why make it so complicated?
Second reason: I repeatedly wanna stress that the Board scene deserves to be documented more precisely and as sufficient as any other stuff here. My opinion. |

BBS's were/are a part of the scene, so why not add the option? |

I agree that BBS' should be represented. There were some classic places to visit back in the day.

BBSes are more than just trivia. They are one of the highlights of the scene. They were around during the right time with the right people and it would be great if they were represented here together with graphics/sysop and even user credits.
