Anyone know what happened to the bbses.info sites? (bbses.info, bbstorrents.bbses.info, etc..) reddit / bbs ---------------------------------------------------------------------- deebeaux · 2015-08-27 14:32 They're working for me. I sometimes hang out in their IRC server as well. I grew up in Metairie, BBSing to no end, so +1 for your username. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- nolageek · 2015-08-27 14:44 Weird, I can't get to them. I grew up in Metairie! Moved to DC after the windy-floody thing. Are you in new orleans? Check out my other BBS, nolacarrier.com - it's a little dead, I admit - it could use some calls. :) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- deebeaux · 2015-08-27 15:36 I'll check it out. In Lafayette, LA now. Moved here after losing a job in Mandeville. I've been working on getting my board back up, but it's running now, bbs.starbase21.net. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- nolageek · 2015-08-27 16:04 Awesome - I see it's a MajorBBS? I'll have to create an account and login again sometime when I'm not at work. :) If you haven't yet, check out bbslink.net if you're looking for some cool multibbs games... games are played via connecting to a central gaming server, so all users play within the same "local" game using a a secure ID and random password that's generated with each connection. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Unabart · 2015-08-27 16:36 Try connecting through a web proxy. If you can get to it, then your IP has probably been added to some sort of blacklist. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- sean1978 · 2015-08-28 01:07 I live in NOLA now, moved here about a year an a half ago. Working on getting an old PS/2 model 25 running so I can log into BBS. You gonna run any door games? Really wanting to play Exitilus. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- nolageek · 2015-08-28 01:55 Running exitilus on Capitol Shrill, not Nola carrier. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- RealDeuce · 2015-08-28 12:04 Given that /u/mro_1337 offered to mirror the podcast on bbses.info, and given that he often recommends auto-generating IP blocklists by country, it's a reasonable assumption that Mro has blocked you and I either accidentally or on purpose. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- mro_1337 · 2015-09-03 05:26 he has my email address; he could have asked me instead of using a subreddit that 5 people frequent. yeah i banned him when he made a comment that i never contributed anything or something like that. please use bbs-scene instead, nolageek :D i do clear my iptables' rules frequently so this is not permanent, but i always block china. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- nolageek · 2015-09-04 12:21 That was most certainly not my reason for twitlisting you on my board, and you know that. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- mro_1337 · 2015-09-16 05:52 i dont know anything about you twitlisting me and dont care.
