I think I feel the same way you do. But it would be nice to get a few more quality users in on the NETS and BBS's. It will most likely never be like in the 90's. Im not trying to be negative, But as I think about it a little more, BBS land wasnt perfect neither. I remember having "trolls" and problem users on my BBS. Of course since I only had about 100 users, maybe 2 were bad or so., and then when MIRC became popular it seemed worse with the the quality of users. So the more popular and flooded with people, especially the way people are now, theres going to be those people who cause problems unfortunately. 

I really enjoy the old style BBS but I think its really cool how a couple of the BBS have a web page BBS also, (best way I can explain it) Which also links to the actual BBS. I have some quality people I work with that could bring a lot to the BBS community and I was surprise to find out they had no clue what a BBS was...
