I don't know.  From my point of view, another 'net is a pain because I have to log into all these different BBS's to access them.  I as habit log into two, so if those aren't going to connect, I'm not going to see it.

A higher signal to noise ratio may be what is achieved, but then, there won't be much signal in the first place.  Piggybacking it onto a network which already has many BBS participants and traffic seems a better way to get people in. You'll get more noise, sure, but you'll get more discussion in amongst that.  A forum with pure signal and no noise isn't that great if there are only one or to postings a week.
