<p>I don't have any memories of bulletin board systems. However, a year or two ago I found one which is operational via Telnet. To my knowledge, BBS owner keeps it online so people can experience a BBS. In addition to bulletin boards (message area), there is
also a download area and game room with a number of accessible games.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p style="background-color: transparent;">To connect to Reign of Fire BBS through telnet, use the following data.</p>
<p>host: rof.cnetbbs.net</p>
<p>Port: 2300</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>The BBS is free to join/use. I myself connect using the VIP mud client, but I'm thinking whatever method you use to access telnet should work with the BBS. Since this message with BBS connection details is probably off-topic for the list, I acquired permission
from the BlindApple list owner prior to posting.</p>

<div class="x_moz-cite-prefix">Unfortunately, I got into BBS's in the Spring of 1990, so in Louisville there wasn't much left for Apple II users. There was one BBS run by the local Apple users group, but I have no idea what software they used. I actually enjoyed
BBS's more when we switched to PC's because I knew I could actually use some of the programs in the download areas.</div>

as cheap as it is now, nor was the Internet available to alleviate the problem.</p>
