Telnet'able BBS'es??
Hey, I just realized - I'm probably kinda slow - that there are a couple of old C64 bbs's I used to call back in my hayday available on the net via telnet. This is ofcourse Antidote and The Hidden, which was a Motiv 8 board back when L.A.Style was a member - the-hidden.hopto.org
I wonder, are there any other boards out there worth checking out (bear in mind, I've been gone for like 7-8 years..) |

Quote: Well its pretty easy to setup a C64 BBS on telnet now, thanks to the folks at www.telbbs.com. We'd really love to see some more boards outside North America, especially since that is where most of the action is these days.
And of course all of these guys need more users to call, even the 10-15 a day we typically get could easily be increased if more people knew about them.

True, I see a big chance to increase the number of callers by advertising them much better. Have all you guys gotten your own banners and stuff like that? Also every scene dude has to call one of his old buddies in order to inform them ;)) |

Quote: Heh, well, I actually very much felt like setting my old board The Gateway back up, but it would have to look exactly like it did back in 92-93 then, and I don't think I have the disks or the c*base program anylonger, unfortunately......but I'm still considering it, or maybe get Bird to set Mount Olympus back up.....still thinking about it....
I´ve forgot all about using the C*base system, that´s for sure! Haven´t been on a real C64 board since 1994, I guess! But I sure remember The Gateway from your Epic days.. Could be cool, if you did - even if I didn´t really like you as a sysop back then, haha ;-)
But times changes, and I think it could be funny!
Maybe I should ask Tricket to do the same for Dominic. I think, I´ve got an old c*base program on some of my old disks... Probably Dominic or something.. Hmmm. But actually Dominic wasn´t running in c*base in the beginning - the firsts months or something... So maybe it´s not even c*base, I´ve got.. Will check it..

Could anyone tell me what Centipede is? Of course I've seen C*Base and UCBBS in most of their popular modded versions but what is Centipede exactly? Who is behind it?

Yeah go to the centipede website for the info, but in a nutshell, it is the final descendant of Color 64. It is by far the most robust and reliable (IMHO) bbs prg ever released for c64. It is very customizable (with effort).
Usually the only reason I have to reboot is because my Windows 2000 box screws up, or some piece of hardware on the C128 causes a problem. Lost Caverns BBS has been online for over 4 weeks without a reboot, and it's dual line of a multiplexed Lt. Kernal!
Having said that, from an asthetics standpoint, nothing really beats C*Base.
