My BBS turns 1 today! reddit / bbs ---------------------------------------------------------------------- codefenix · 2020-12-15 16:52 Celebrating a small milestone today. ConstructiveChaos BBS first went online on December 15, 2019, although it didn't really start taking shape until much later. It has been fun spending an otherwise awful year learning the ropes of running a BBS and getting things working, and re-living what I liked best about past BBSes that I myself used to call. * [https://conchaos.synchro.net](https://conchaos.synchro.net/) * telnet://conchaos.synchro.net Thanks to those who continue to call in regularly, and to everyone else who just stops by once in a while to check things out. https://preview.redd.it/dbdefaqtrd561.png?width=960&format=png&auto=we bp&s=b9a0795e583cc5c65893ceb723e28822f9aae649 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- benchly · 2020-12-15 17:21 Congrats! I'll have to check it out. How do you like Synchronet? I've been wanting to spin up my own, but I'm trying to decide between that and Enigma 1/2, which seems like it might be a wee bit easier. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- codefenix · 2020-12-15 17:56 I personally like Sync a great deal. Active community & knowledgebase. Sync's Control Panel (in Windows) lets you see everything that's going on at a glance, so you know who's on and any events and error(s) that may have recently occurred. And if you have a somewhat good grasp on Javascript, you can write your own mods pretty easily. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- dmine45 · 2020-12-15 20:41 Super congrats to a fellow Synchronet Sysop! I've been running Synchronet since 2000. :) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- saxainpdx · 2020-12-16 06:49 Congrats!

And is it a dedicated machine? I’m been thinking of setting up a synchronet bbs ---------------------------------------------------------------------- codefenix · 2020-12-21 02:29 Yes, dedicated Windows machine running Sync.
