| "This BBS ran on an Amiga 2000 with maybe a couple hundred megabytes of disk and perhaps 4-8MB of RAM - a really loaded Amiga. I didn't have many callers, mainly because it was a long distance call from nearly everybody on the planet. And those that did call for some reason were expecting adult oriented items for some reason. Dunno why that was; at the time I lived in Beaver Lake, NE which is where the name came from. Can't imagine where they got the idea there'd be porn ;)" - Greg Gerke | |||

| "The story was pretty simple - once I got my first 1200 baud modem I was hooked and once I had the resources I decided I would start up my own BBS. I ran through a variety of (Free or Cheap!) BBS software as much as a learning process as anything before finally settling on UltraBBS. It was a lot of fun setting up all the various workings, creating ANSI menus with TheDraw, setting up the good door games (Operation Overkill, TradeWars, Global War, etc) getting on RelayNet and Fidonet, and even shelling out ~600 bucks for a brand spanking new US Robotics 14.4k Dual Standard under the SysOp program. I met a lot of people and had a good time - I remember chatting with a large number of SysOps listed in the 402 area code at one time or another. Those were the days!" - Tom Kimzey | |||

We had some really good times (along with a few "not-so-good" ones) and met a lot of really nice folks." -Bill Richman, Sysop, Retired, Cyberspace BBS | |||

Nate Chase, Bob Savery | Wildcat |
| "Hawg Wild! BBS Inc was the official name of the company and Hawg Wild! BBS was the name of the system. Nate also sold computer equipment and services and the BBS was a paid membership BBS, so it was all incorporated to legally protect us. During the time frame you have listed, Nate Chase was the sysop. I was the Co-Sysop starting back in about 1991. Nate sold the system in 1996 and I took over as Sysop. In 1995, we moved the entire system to my house in LaVista (but never changed the location so as far as anyone knew, it was still an Omaha BBS). In 1996, Nate wanted out, and the system was sold to Top.Net (The On-Line Pitstop guys). Since Rob Beagle's house was already full of equipment from their system, I was "hired" on to maintain and Sysop HawgWild. In 1998 my (now) ex-wife booted both me and the BBS out. The events were not entirely un-related! :-) Rob, Jim Logan (Co-owner/Sysop of the PitStop) decided at the time to close the doors. Much of the files and equipment were merged into the Pitstop, with the internet side of things continuing on for a while (but never developed and eventually killed off as well.) Amazing what google dredges up in it's somedays! I'd forgotten about a lot of this! Thanks!" - Bob Savery | |||

| "Started as a way for other Mac users to share information and shareware, UBBS quickly became a resource for more than 80 paying users. We had two phone lines because that is all my software and hardware could manage at the time. We used US Robotics Courier 56k modems and had a whole 2Gg Seagate hard drive. I was only 13-15 years old when I started and operated UBBS (until I found cars and girls). It was some of the most memorable times of my life, thank you everyone who supported UBBS." - JD Rhoads | |||

Debbie Clement | TBBS |
| "I started in the BBS world, actually back in like 1982, with a Radio Shack Computer, called the Color Computer 2, with a 300 baud modem using software called the Best BBS. The best thing about the software, was it was written in basic, so I could tweek it. I thought was really cool when the 1200baud modem came out, spent a fortune on it as well, and I thought it really 'zoomed'. I later changed computers, and software (to the TBBS system) and at the same time, changed the name of the board to Firm Foundation, and ran that board using the phone number 402-592-4840, which I ran until April of 1990 in Omaha. After that, I moved to Brookfield, IL and ran the board from there with the same gear until August of 1993. From there, I moved to Cincinnati, Ohio and ran the board for another year or two. Thought that the internet was a joke (boy was I stupid about that!), but in the end the board became too much to run and too time consuming and I shut it down sometime in 1995 or 1996." - Debbie Clement | |||

It ran on a heavily modified Kaypro II computer (upgraded with a 10 MHz Z80, a 1 megabyte RAM disk, and quad-density 5.25" floppy drives). Hot stuff for the early 1980's. The original reason I set up the BBS was to get U.S.Robotics' "sysop deal" on their new, amazingly fast 1200 bps modem!" - Lee David Rimar | |||

I remember buying two 340 meg RLL drives for the board and yes they still work. Join G.O.S.S.A in the area, (Thanks Curt and Sparky) and I can't remember why it went down, but all good things have to end.
