I apologize for the pedantry, but the first line says, "I'm not referring to the message network itself".

It's an interesting read, though I'm not sure it answers the question.

I carry FIDOnet on my BBS, but reasons I can think of to not be a huge fan of the network include the amount of terrible bickering, the amount of areas that are devoid of activity, and the lack of any official rule changes since the 1980s.

I'm sure there are more, and, certainly, your page makes good points that are at least sometimes more true of FIDOnet than other nets.
