"Loved running a BBS. The had a life of its own. I would come home from school or work and find how many new callers I had and what kind of files were uploaded. I Had online games like tradewars up there too. I moved out of my parents house in may of 1998, the BBS computer had a modem problem and was not answering the phone for over a year before I shut the phone line. I still have that computer in tact and I would love to set it up again to take BBS calls again. If you were a SunShine II BBS user please feel free to email me at mgendell@hotmail.com" - Mark Gendell

"1984 is the right start year, but I'm not sure when we closed it down. My brother and I had a great time running the BBS. We were really innovative at the time, with features that included: word wrap (yes a great mod at the time), casino games, adventure game, matchmaking service, etc. Can't remember the base software, but run off our Apple 2e and one of the first 10MB hard drives." -- Jason Abrevaya

"Point Blank began in 1992. I remember the years because I was a high school student at the time. It was a large BBS and had a live chat that was usually well populated during peak hours. It had weekly or monthly meetups as well (it varied). Many of us are still in touch." - Iciaccio

"The name of the BBS stood for Wet, Wild, And Rabid. (The name of a band two of the SysOps were in.) Hosted files, doors (games) and later a FIDOnet message system. Initially ran off an IBM PS2/50z, and eventually, a 486. Had about 2 Gigs worth of storage, of which, about 400Megs were online at any given time." - Mike Zmuda

"Chris (Master Com) had already been running his BBS out of his basement bedroom for several months when I first met him in 1991 or so. The circumstances around meeting him were a bit odd. A mutual acquaintance had given me the BBS number, but at the time I was only running a cheap 1200, so I was actually too embarrassed to call. Instead I gave the number to my friend John (Sojourner), who called up right away, became friends with Chris, and soon after became co-sysop. It wasn't until several months later that I managed to upgrade my modem and got on the board. By that time, Chris knew who I was, and it wasn't long before I was co-sysop as well. At first the board wasn't affiliated with anyone, we just soaked up as many pirated games from other local boards as we could. I joined GRiM in 1992, and then GRiM merged with iCE, so the board became an unofficial distribution site, by virtue of me putting up iCE releases in the Files section. Chris also worked on an early version of what would eventually become iCEView. Several years later, the board became an official distribution site for a local demo group Renaissance, though Chris never programmed anything for them, preferring to work on his own projects with no deadlines. Chris was notorious for ignoring chat requests, even from his co-sysops. One thing we took advantage of was the fact that at the time, his PC was running with a very noisy 65MB Seagate hard drive, so John wrote a batch file that ran 'dir /s' from the root directory, and we would login to the board, drop to a DOS prompt and run the file, and the noise was enough to wake Chris up at 3am to chat. When he finally replaced the drive with a new (and quiet) 150MB Western Digital, we edited the batch file to echo a bunch of ^Gs to the screen, and the continuous beeping would do the trick. Chris started out running Telegard, and used that for most of the time the board was up. Later on, he experimented briefly with Renegade, but was thoroughly unimpressed with it (his opinion was that it was basically just Telegard 'with a few things tacked on'). We tried Oblivion/2 for several months before Chris got it into his head that he could write a better BBS program than what was already out there. The result was OpticNet, which if I recall correctly he actually got up and running for a few months before getting bored with the whole project, and with BBSs in general. By this time, the internet was gaining popularity, so the board didn't stay active for too much longer." - Ben Morgan

The BBSes were subscription based services that provided forums, chat rooms and third party services like legal services, air travel reservations and shopping. The BBSes started using PCBoard and 6 IBM AT computers and later expanded to IBM 286 and better systems running Galacticomm and mimicking the CompuServe menu style." - Wagner Bucci

My co-horts were the sysops from the Friendly Cave BBS, The Misty Mountain BBS and the Lions Den BBS all in the 516 area code, (witch is now 631 area code). Back then I was a member of several crack groups, I often think back to the hilarious crack group wars we had going on." - Murph

"One of the FIRST CBBS systems in the country! The CBBSBIOS.ASM was written for us by Bobby Dale Gifford dated 9/1/79, specifically for our hardware and Ward & Randy's software. I have all the original logs, paperwork, manuals and most hardware still in my basement! The original logs are on 8" floppy, but I also have Teletype hard copy back as far as 10/1980. On 2/20/81, I came up with something I called "InstaPoll", which was a CBBS add-on that allowed polling our users on a particular question, or subject, and then displaying the results of that poll, much as you now see on C/Net, etc. The code was written by me, Harvey Fishman and Mark Zeiger, who also wrote an XMODEM derivative. The CBBS was sponsored by the Long Island Computer Association, and was called the LICA Limbs (Long Island Mailbox System) I can supply further information and documentation, if needed. I shut down the system when the users migrated to the Internet, and can supply a more accurate date (the final phone bill is somewhere in the pile.) By 12/81, we had logins from over 15 states and Canada." - Dave Minott

"This BBS ran on an Atari 8-Bit computer. It started out with an Atari 800 48k with a single 1050 drive and running at 300 Baud with a genuine Hayes modem. It expanded to an Atari 800, a 1050 drive and an Indus GT drive. Later it was running on an Atari 130XE w/ Ram Disk along with those two drives. Eventually it ended up running with a modified 130XE with 512k memory, 40 megs MFM drive (formatted as an RLL drive to get 60 megs out of it) with the 130XE ram drive, a 256k MIO ram drive, and the two floppies mentioned above. In the old days it would answer the phone by a device I rigged up to plug into the joystick port and the phone system, since the 1030 modem didn't have an auto-answer option. The interface was changed to an 850, and then finally to the MIO. Ironic that back then when I got a 1200 Baud modem it felt like I was flying. When the 2400 Baud came out it was something of a miracle. But then again back in the early days if you had 300 Baud modem you were supposed to report it to the phone company. How times change. If anyone used to be a member of the BBS I'd love to hear from you. Contact me via zx6er93@hotmail.com if you wish to discuss. Please mention BBS in the subject line." - John Quinn

"This was a great hobby for me and it gave me the opportunity to make some good friends and meet some great people. The BBS actually started back in 1985 as a private board for some friends and worked it's way up to a full fledged system. I had started with AMIS on the old Atari, then moved up to WWIV, then Telegard and finally to Renegade. We had decent turnouts for our BBS meets and great times. Since shutting down the board, I have moved off Long Island up to Westchester. Thanks alot and keep up the great work." - Brett Hager

"This BBS started out on a 1200 baud modem and ended with three 14.4 modems. When I shut it down in '94 it was running on 3 phone lines and was receiving about 80 calls a day making it one of the busiest BBSs on Long Island for that time. It was a joy to run this BBS and seeing all these other BBSs on this list brings back great memories. If any of you remember The Campus BBS and would like to send me email feel free to at campus@grummite.com." - Philip Alloca THE CAMPUS BBS. Over 5000 programs to download, 100's of GIFS.

"The Long Island hub of Amiga (Commodore) information and files. Much to our surprise it routinely attracted international and national callers.

The site started operation in 1996 and lived on until sometime in 1998." - Sanford Barr

"I started this BBS with the help of Carolyn from Generic BBS and Farukh Irani from Electronic New York. At one time, we used to do some primitive networking and I was able to pull in some national 'newsgroups'. The BBS went away just as the internet became more commercially available. This beast used to run on an old Packard Bell 386sx16 with an 80 MEG hard drive. Somewhere, in a box, in a closet, I still have the hard drive with the last image of the BBS. We had quite a bit of fun running the BBS in its day, and I got to meet all kinds of interesting people." - Stan Schwartz

"When it first started, it was running off of two 880k floppy disks! Initially, people used the board (one of the few Amiga BBSes on Long Island) for file-trading, but as time went on and 2400 baud became obsolete, the board became a very active social arena, filling the hole left when legendary C64 board Gardiner's Island fell off the map." - The Dark Man

"Hey to all who remember such a great part of my history. The BBS ran on an 80286 With a 1200 baud modem eventually going to 2400 WoW! The board consisted of H/P/A/V/C for those of you who dont remember it is Hacking/Phreaking/Anarchy/Virii/Carding :P ahh the good ole days :) It was affiliated with numerous groups. The board itself was Telegard/Renegade/Aftershock I switched them up every now and then. I remember spending hours studying the Telegard manual to bring the best content to the bbs doors/games/messaging and as a reward I had a 99% busy bbs! If you were lucky enough for me to think you were leet enough to become a member (LOL I was such a prick back then :P) then email me I would love to hear from you. Shout outs to: Killer Beast -What Up dude email me! Mak-Attack, Surak, Shadow Demon - DUDE email me! Professor Charles Xavier - SUP MAN! Email me at: movieguy_1629@hotmail.com" - Stalker/Cryptkeeper

It started on a measly Commodore 64 in the early 1980's and eventually upgraded to a Commodore 128 and then a Commodore Amiga with over a gigabyte of data and files (which was quite a feat back in the 80's and 90's). The Vale was also the first BBS on Long Island: (i) to upgrade to 2400 baud (yes, it even started on a 300 baud modem and had users logging on at 110 baud); (ii) to run the C-Net Amiga BBS program; and (iii) to run a hard drive on a Commodore 128 BBS." - Disk Wizard

"I was the SysOp of Ender BBS. I ran it out of my bedroom when I was a teenager, around '93-'94 on a series of Macs. I don't remember what software I used at first, but I did start out with a Hayes 2400 baud modem. Eventually I decided I needed a faster modem and took up a collection. Amazingly, people contributed - I got a couple of checks from people I didn't even know personally, which was a great feeling! I remember being very proud to share my new modem. And somewhere along the way I got a copy of First Class, which was a GUI-based BBS system that required client software. I would stay up all night working on the environment and exploring other local BBSes, and would basically fall asleep in school the next day. Several friends had BBSes too, and we had little rivalries. Ender BBS wasn't about warez; it was just a place for people to exchange messages and b.s. Sometimes we talked about cracking and phone phreaking but none of my friends really had any skills in that area! Definitely met some colorful people through that experience though. I miss the good ol' days when the only people on the Internet were the ones smart enough to figure it out." - Tom

"This was my first BBS which seldom had an "unbusy" line. At that time I worked at the Shorham Nuclear Station (The Nuclear Site) and was hoping to promote the peaceful use of nuclear energy. Long Island had several BBS's and at one time Greg Carmen and I thought about putting together a single "Mega BBS" but for whatever reason (time) it did not happen. The amount of information that would pass through and/or reside on the system was amazing for the time. Mail was sent around the world through a relay system of networked dial ups, uploads, and downloads. The system and software stays intact on a PC which has not been started since 1996 when it was replaced and spare time became a scarce commodity." - Harm Toren

"Initially ran as a single node sharing a phone line with my parents' fax machine (using a fax/phone switch). It grew quickly to 3 nodes (with one phone line shared with our main voice line for priority access and Fido transfers overnight). It was donation-funded (which is to say my dad paid the phone bill), and offered FidoNet, various games, shareware/freeware downloads, and public boards. The BBS was disbanded shortly after I started high school and began using my POTS lines for internet/web hosting." - ElScotto
