SLASHER BBS
===========

"SLASHER BBS was started by John Riley with the help of Robert
King, SysOp of Planet Caravan BBS, which later became God and
Country Node 2. It started off in Feb. of 1993, as a private BBS
for the two users, John Riley and Robert King to quickly exchange
files and chat if needed. In March of 1993, we both decided to
open our BBS to the public. TriBBS had a high price for it's
registeration, so the two SysOps started looking for other
software to run their BBS. In early or mid summer of 1993 Rob King
was introduced to Dave Wright, SysOp of God and Country Node 1. He
ran God and Country Node 1, using ProBoard BBS software. ProBoard
was hardly crippled at all in it's shareware state, and Robert
King suggested to John Riley, he switch over to ProBoard as he was
doing. He was also going to become God and Country Node 2. John
switched over and several users were happy. Infact one even
donated a 28.8 Baud Modem which was the fastest speed at the time.
SLASHER BBS ran in Decatur, IL until around April of 1998, when
the SysOp moved to Tupelo, MS. He looked for other local SysOps,
but had found only ghostly traces of the old BBSes. However with
the help of some online SysOps, John Riley turned SLASHER BBS into
a telnet ProBoard BBS. After a few years, and ProBoard being
murder by Pat Clawson, John Riley, finally switch over to a
Synchronet system.... Which he still mods every chance he gets to
make it more like his old ProBoard system. You can reach SLASHER
BBS via telnet @ telnet://slasherbbs.com Thank you!" - John Riley

purchased the rights to the ProBoard software, and went back in
2006 to using it. We are working hard every free chance we get to
completing a 32Bit and 64Bit version of ProBoard. I may no long
live in Decatur, Illinois, but you can reach SLASHER BBS via
