"This BBS started when I lived in Nashville, Tn. Originally, it was a part-time BBS, and grew into a full time system. When I moved to Green Bay, WI, I kept it online. Again, when I moved to Brunswick, I brought the system with me. Sadly by that time the Internet had grown to the point where the local BBS scene just wasn't flourishing like it once did, and I took the system down. I am now online at http://www.rassi.com" - Paul Bender

"I was the SysOp of this BBS. I run it non stop for 14 years. Originally it was on an Atari 800, with an Hayes 300 baud modem. At that time I was running a modified version of Amis BBS program. The name was Atari Express, and remained that way for about 6 years. At that point I want to attract more than the dewindling Atari userbase and decided to switch the name to Akron Connection when I switched over to an Atari 520ST to run it on. I run Michtron BBS software at that point with a 20 meg HD and supported Atari 8bit, Atari 16bit, C64/128, Amiga, and of course IBM compatables. Less than a year later I switched to a IBM clone and become a beta tester for Tim Purves PC version of Michtron BBS. Over the years I made many friends and met many people. Many are friends to this day. One such friend is Don Crano. He was the sysop of Rubber City Atari BBS. His BBS ran non stop for 1981 until 1997 I believe and was the oldest and longest running BBS in our area. Because of our strong ties in the Atari community we joined an Atari usergroup "Cuyahoga Vally Atari Users Group" Eventually become President and Vice President of it and I also was the newletter editor for many years. Well you have awakened many memories of a great era, thanks and I'm looking forward to reading your work." - Terry Russell

(1983-1997) Al Hawker | Citadel, CNET, GAP |
"A friend of mine happened to be searching for something and came across your list. I figured I might as well give you the correct info. HCS BBS was run in Brunswick, Ohio, but was always listed as Cleveland because I relayed FIDO and several other nationwide mail packages. HCS was actually around since 1983 and started originally running Citadel on a CP/M OS, then I went to a CNET board on a Commodore, and eventually a multi-node GAP BBS running on a DOS/Windows systems. The GAP version of HCS BBS ran from 1987 to 1997 by itself. My GAP software was licensed for 99 nodes, however, the most nodes I ever ran was 9 or so. I wrote several doors for GAP and PCBoard systems. When I started the Board, I was running 300 baud (high speed for that time) and was at 56K when I shutdown. You'll even find HCS listed in the GAP BBS manuals (if you could find one). Just thought you'd like a little better detail. Thanks... Al Hawker"

"Wow, I just realised that we were listed! Well.. Damian and I went to school together. Don't remember why we started our own BBS, just that we did. The Realm was pretty popular, and between our board, Illusions, Dagwood's Castle, etc, we used to have local "modem meetings" where all of us from the various boards would get together. Damian handled most of the technical end, I was the moderator/voice verifier/random sysop. We also requested some of the FidoNet echoes, which was a pretty big deal for us. We had to take it down when Damian graduated, but it was fun while it lasted!" - Danyal Bayer

East Canton, OH Digital Insanity, The Matrix |
(1990-1995) Fastjack, Liquid Reality, Bloodbath | Telegard, Citadel, Renegade, VBBS, VABBS |
"The original matrix bbs was run out of my mothers house 10pm - 3pm nightly. It was run on a 486dx/50 with 8mb ram and a 110mb hard drive. At one point it had two lines, one being dedicated and the other being a the main phone line coming into the house. Then I moved to my fathers house in louisville, OH and the board was renamed to digital insanity and the number was 330-875-2045 on one of the two lines it had at that location. Later I changed the software to vbbs and redid all the ansi graphics. At some point a name change occured and it became mayhem and then when I moved to va it became digital insanity again. Each time the board changed names I changed names with it. | "The actual bulletin board itself was primarily messages, text files, and doors as far as the public was concerned. A few people (Gatlin, Tsunami, etc) had further access to the system where various items of questionable legality were stored. The community in stark county was *great*. I miss alot of the guys from back then, some of my best computing memories were at 3am bs'ing around with other sysops and playing door games with em. "Ironically my bbs involvement later around 1996 it got me one of my first non-contract technical jobs at an ISP... i quite literally knew *everyone* that worked there from the bulletin boards in the area and had helped two of the admins to setup networking software with their bulletin board systems. Fast forward to 2005 and I started at a new job as a networking/systems guy and find out my boss and I had chatted frequently after the board moved to louisville... so in one way or another my bulletin board experience have greatly shaped my career in computers and let me meet alot of great people." - Fastjack
