Hi EVeryone,

​

# The AlSayr BBS

# Login to the AlSayr BBS

## Use [telnet](https://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/art
icles/38433.windows-10-enabling-telnet-client.aspx), [putty](https://w
ww.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/latest.html),
[netrunner](https://www.alsayr.com/bbs/nr21_w64.rar), or
[syncterm](https://www.alsayr.com/bbs/SyncTERM.exe) and go to
alsayr.com on Port 23.  A BBS is a BBS but I put a little thought into
this one.  No ratios, 7.6 Gb of Survival downloads, dove-net messages.
A  TradeWars 2002 game server and more.
[alsayr.com](https://alsayr.com) port 23.

###### Q. How do I get the best experience here?

A. Download SyncTerm preferably or Netrunner Alternatively to connect.
Download links are below. These programs are rather old, and you may
get a prompt saying it is not safe to install. These programs are
safe, and you can install them and use them.

SyncTERM ANSI Terminal executable – [https://www.alsayr.com/bbs/SyncTE

###### Q. What is going on here?

A. The AlSayr BBS was created to help resurrect the BBS’s of old.
Freedom of speech is now dead, with many censored voices. These voices
are going to need a home. That was the motivation to set up this
system, and along the way, I had a great time remembering what a joy
it is to run a Bulletin Board System (BBS) System.

###### Q. What can I do here?

A. You can sign up for a new account by entering new at the prompt.
Give me some information, and I’ll validate your FREE account right
away, and you’ll have full access to download files in the File Area.
You’ll get an email address. You can chat with fellow users and send
messages to other systems. Play multiplayer games like TradeWars 2002
with your friends. And much more.

###### Q. Is my information stored anywhere?

A. Because only what you enter is stored here you can make up a name
or use an Alias. Nothing is saved offsite or in the cloud. AlSayr is
running on an old HP file server running Linux on an SSD drive. It has
no backups and could blow up at any time. I have a high-speed internet
connection, so please download all of the files you like.

There is a bug with TW2002 that they fixed with TW2012 that allows you
to blow up the trade hubs and even the main trading station from two
different ways. I remember in one instance on a BBS I destroyed
everything in the game and then the sysop had to reset it.
