Neurosis, TechOp

Blackbob (Jim Paris, jim@jtan.com)WWIV
"Started in late 1993, ran until the end of 1995 (at which point it changed into Neurosis). My dad actually suggested early on that unless my BBS offered something that other people didn't, I would never get much interest, and so this one was dedicated to computer programming. I made a handful of nifty animated ANSI advertisements for this BBS, which people seemed to really love. I think these ads were probably what got a lot of people interested in calling, or at least grabbed their attention so they considered it. Had 409 users when it went down.

"Ran from early 1996 to late 1997, as a replacement for TechOp at the same number. This one was focused loosely on the demoscene, and lasted until it slowly faded out, primarily due to the fact that BBSes began to die in my area when the Internet took over. I stopped leaving my BBS online and started tying up the modem more and more, until I simply closed the door for good one day. I don't remember the closing being particularly sad; it was just something that happened. The Internet looked bright on the horizon." - Jim Paris

Nathan CobleighMaximus
"Known to his friends as "Nate", the Sysop of this BBS (age 13) was one of the greatest of all time. His website was unique in design as it ran the premier software of its time and offered the ability to board an elevator with different virtual floors. The message forums would be on one floor, the games on another, and files on the last. He learned a lot about the Maximus system from his friend, Josua Mazess, who ran the Opus Penguin or Outland BBS until 2003! Both their BBS's were far superior to other local BBS's in content, membership and design.

"In 1994, (age 17) Nathan received an award from the Pennsylvania Chamber of Commerce for his successful website Comp-u-plex BBS.

"After the BBS days ended, Nathan focused on the internet and the revolution that was coming. In 2001, (age 21) He created a company called eOrders LLC. (www.eorders.com) The company generates increased revenues for restaurant owners by enabling their customers to order their food online. The company has grown under the leadership of his close friends Tedra Cordisio, Wade Neumeister, and Jason Maher. In an unexpected and very unfortunate event, Nathan passed away in 2004 at only age 24 from complications during a surgery. His company passed to his parents whom have successfullly grown it in his memory. Nathan Cobleigh was a true pioneer and visionary of his time and is missed terribly by his friends and family." - Jason Maher

Rasputin (Tom Gamble)WWIV
"This board actually ran off an old IBM PS1 (remember those). I believe I changed the name of this board once and it even changed phone numbers for a few months. Once, we even organized a picnic to meet everyone. Although this sounds nice, most of users were a little on the arguing side. I ran this board while I was a junior and senior at Kennett High School and most users were local to that area. The board also focused on hacking and cracking and other stuff that I abandoned after I turned 18. We had a great BRE tournament going upon which we took first place (competing with about 10 other boards). After receiving the prize it was discovered that someone (wonder who?) managed to find a flaw in the game and exploited it again and again. Anyway, the board was a lot of fun to run. -Rasputin (sysop)"

"Originally from the 301 (now 410) Baltimore area, I started The Insurrection during my college years in the 215 area code. Consequently the board was down during the summer months but I remember users quickly joining back up. I ran WWIV for the first year then switched to Telegard (can't remember exactly why). The board ran on a USR Courier HST/DS,386/25Mhz with 387, 4mb RAM, 2 320mb ESDI Hard Disks that made the computer sound like a Jet was taking off. I also had one of the first CD-ROM drives for the board which hosted a number of the "classic" apps in the files section. I seem to remember being in a WWIV type net but for some reason that doesn't sound right since Telegard boards were banned from WWIV net. I've been thinking about putting The Insurrection back online for the heck of it. Keep checking http://www.The-Insurrection.com." - The Icon Warrior

The Vulcan (Tom Woolman)ARB BBS and others
"This was one of the earlier BBS set up in Bucks County. It was such a cool board! I started it in 1987 on a HEAVILY modified Commodore 64, running an early version of ARB BBS software. That modified C64 had an extra video chip (VID chip), 2 5.25" 1541 model 170k floppies, and two "massive" high density 5.25" 1.44MB floppy drives. We had a huge war board, role playing game message boards with some outrageous game titles that the SysOp and friends invented. We had a great download section for some of our early custom programs, and we used to have several BBS parties, and sometimes even some girl users would show up! Best memory: The Starbase 2000 BBS vs. Shadows Keep BBS laser tag battle. It was held late on a Saturday night at Edgewood school, around 1988. The BBS started out being called Starbase One, and ran on that Commodore 64 for about 2 years. Then around 1988-89 I upgraded to an Amiga 500 and had a "massive" 20MB external hard drive, and started running new AmigaBBS software. The name was changed to Starbase 2000. Finally towards the end of it's reign and my senior year in high school I changed the name to Midnight Peace BBS. Other funny memories: hacker forums, hidden message boards, busting on The Wing and his retard friends and plotting revenge, hacking Haven of Rest BBS which was a sucky religious loser BBS, and meeting a lot of interesting and also a lot of strange people. Good memories!" - The Vulcan (Tom Woolman)

"Maxwell Smart founded KAOS in late 1984, and ran it until April 1986. Captain Infinity took over the board at that time, and ran it until it closed. (Source: http://cellar.org/showthread.php?t=259) KAOS ran until about 1989 or 1990 (date approximate). At some time before it finally closed down, Captain Infinity moved out of the house where the system lived, leaving KAOS running in his old room. The system would sometimes go down, and stay down for days at a time, until the Cap'n could either visit it, or relay instructions to his mother for rebooting it. The software was not really stable enough for "lights out" operation...." - Pat
