     COMMENTS | "It is great to see a list of all of the local bbs' in
              | the area, this was neat to go back in time, Also I have
              | registered www.banditland.net and it has replaced the bbs
              | software, so friends and family go to it, but I still
              | miss some of the things about the bbs community. You
              | could always count on someone signing in and playing a
              | game or uploading something they found, now with the
              | internet, there is so much to see and do, no one devots
              | any time to one site, they go and go and go, but it is
              | usually not to the same site(on a daily basis). Anyways,
              | great list and good luck on your documentary." - Jamen

     COMMENTS | "This was probably the biggest BBS in Asheville. It
              | provided internet service also first through lynx and
              | then through WinSock to a browser. The only competitor it
              | had was AOL and even that was only towards the mid-late
              | 90's. The BBS had a great community of people that were
              | always in Teleconference, a huge file section, and the
              | best door games." - Nighthawk
