Hi there,

whu guest accounts ? Use a website and tell about your BBS. What users can find there and its worth to sign up. Many people reading about BBSes but not everyone uses it. They only know websites, forums, facebook and so on... 

Its like every other hobby. Like Amateur Radio, Photography, Games....

I think a guest account isnt worth to configure. 
Users need a good password to get her accounts safe.
Mystic BBS has good blacklist function for blocking, i also use the event extension to drop it in iptables, so people cant reach the system login. 

Have a nice day :)
