Yep, that is all too true. And we are losing more of the older
users as time goes by :-((((

Right at this moment I am facing the imminent closure of the BBS
I'm currently using -- second time in 10 months :-(((

There is another BBS where I'm also a member that has some of the
echoes I read (I must check which ones), but it has only QWK
format up and downloads. Fortunately, because it caters for some
special users, it is likely to stay open for many years yet.

But if it ever gets to the point where all I can get is
unmoderated internet newsgroups, I think I'll quit altogether
:-((((
