WWIV, RoboBBS COMMENTS | "Alpha-Omega started in Ellwood City as a single-user | BBS. Through my affinity with the computer community and | BBS, I was introduced to WWIV and became part of the WWIV | network. In the early 90's I brought the BBS all the way | to Central California where an associtae of mine took | over the board and it became one of the largest in | central CA. The name was reatined as Alpha-Omega WEST. | In the 1990's I moved back to Pennsylvania and both EAST | and WEST Alpha-Omega existed and we shared conections to | the WWIV network. Alpha-Omega EAST continued to grow in | Grove City where I continued to be part of the WWIV | network through another member on this list (Charles | Ring, W3NU) and also became a part of FidoNet. The BBS | now had hundreds of channels of information through both | FidoNET and WWIV and connections to the Internet. In the | last year or two of Alpha-Omega's online existence, I | decide to swap out the software for a Windows-based | graphical software called Robo-BBS, which was very | similar to the now popular Amaerica Online software and | could offer opening multiple windows on the client side | to permit forum browsing, "doors" and graphics/sounds. | The primary audience was the Grove City College and users | from the surrounding area. With the popularity and | growth of the Internet - it was decided to cease | operations due to costs and time in administration. | Today, I am operations manager for Winbeam, a wireless | ISP with offices based in Sharon, PA. I can be contacted | at dirk@cybernetx.org." - Derrick Yohn, Alpha-Omega BBS" --------------+----------------------------------------------------------- 412-458-4282 | Frog BBS, Twisted Lizard BBS | (1994) SYSOP | Robert Karns --------------+----------------------------------------------------------- 412-458-6084 | Solar Soyuz Zaibatsu | (1994) --------------+----------------------------------------------------------- 412-459-5021 | The Caduceus: AmeriBoard IV | PITTSBURGH ZONE, PA (1994) --------------+----------------------------------------------------------- 412-459-7290 | Indiana/Westmoreland County Host, Indiana/Westmoreland | County Temp.

The information is accurate | and it was a fun time and I guess back then, we thought | that it would never end. We were running Synchronet | under OS/2 and by the end of the run we had 2 computers | networked with a 6 disk CD changer on the server | computer. We actually took down the board when we | purchased a new home and the cost of moving the phone | lines alone would have been close to $1000 and over the | last few months of the board's existence we had been | receiving fewer and fewer calls. That was around the | time of the World Wide Web's emergence and a LOT of | people were checking out this new thing. I can remember | talking about it at the semi-regular board get togethers | we used to have. Sadly, I my wife and co-sysop Storm are | no longer together, having gotten divorced in 2000 but we | still maintain a good relationship and have a handsome | and intelligent 10 year old son. Anyway, thanks for | this, it's good to know that the efforts that we sysops | put out and the enjoyment that the "users" got from our | boards are not forgotten." - James R.

It | was a pet project of mine while I lived at home during | high school. Although I didn't have lots of money to | spend on hardware, I did invest in registered copies of | games like Legend of the Red Dragon and Lemonade Stand, | and I became an official distributer of MegaZeux, a ZZT- | style game. Though I didn't accomplish *great* things | with the board, it was linked up to FidoNet at one point, | as well as some other local networks. I even think I had | a CD--yes, a single one, because that's all I could | afford at the time! My dream was always to have a | multinode system, but getting one phone line was all that | I could afford at the time, and that seemed to be better | than nothing.

Networked | these to 3 six disk Pioneer CD Rom changers and 1 | eighteen disk Pioneer for a final capability of having 36 | CD Roms on line plus the hard drives. CD's were mostly | the Night Owl series along with ham radio and tech CD's. | Met a lot of nice people along with a couple of the early | hackers. I figured one young fellow was heading for a | life of crime. Spent a lot of money as the changers were | around $1000 each at the time. The Internet caused the | demise of the system. We taught everyone how to send | emails and play online games so the migration towards the | Internet was an easy step for most of the users. Yes it | was fun......but now it is done." - Bob Sova --------------+----------------------------------------------------------- 412-967-9451 | DOCTOR'S Inn, Doctors WOC Inn, Doctors WOC Inn (129/3), | EchoMail Hub | PGCZ 3, PA (1991-2000) SYSOP | Geoff Block SOFTWARE | OPUS --------------+----------------------------------------------------------- 412-967-9452 | EchoMail Hub, NorthStar Pitt | PGCZ 3, PA (1991-1999) SYSOP | Geoff Block --------------+----------------------------------------------------------- 412-967-9553 | GAMMANET BBS | PGCZ 3, PA (1992) SYSOP | Joe Zamiska --------------+----------------------------------------------------------- 412-981-0514 | Midnight Express | (1993-1994) SYSOP | Patrick Curry --------------+----------------------------------------------------------- 412-981-2135 | Outside The Asylum, The Outside of the Asylum | (1989-1991) SYSOP | Gavin Davies --------------+----------------------------------------------------------- 412-981-3151 | Mabel's Mansion, Northwest Penn, Radio Sharon | (1990-1998) SYSOP | Charles Ring --------------+----------------------------------------------------------- 412-981-5625 | Outside the Asylum | (1988) SYSOP | Gavin Davies --------------+----------------------------------------------------------- 412-981-8337 | Special Forces | Sharon, PA (1992-1998) SYSOP | Jesse Schmelzer --------------+----------------------------------------------------------- 412-981-9088 | Special Forces | Sharon, PA (1992) SYSOP | Jesse Schmelzer --------------+----------------------------------------------------------- 412-983-5836 | Research Lab, The Citadel | (1991) SYSOP | Doug Hilton --------------+-----------------------------------------------------------
