"I ran this while I was in middle school, believe it or not. My parents actually gave me my own phoneline. I used to serve up an assortment of "warez" and plenty of good door games! The popularity of the internet eventually killed the BBS. I miss those good old ANSI screens!" - Michael Coletta

The Alter Ego
(1995-1998)
James MunseyRenegade
"Alter Ego was created to be the Headquarters Site for RcA (Real Crazy Artists, later changed to Really Creative Artists). The board was one of the best examples of art-based BBS' in the region at the time and featured both ANSI and RIP screens for those who had Ripterm. The line was busy 24/7 it seemed with 30-50 calls daily. I thought when we got to a gig of storage and 28.8 baud we were the fastest thing going. People logged in from across the US to download our art 'packs' and locally it was also a popular gaming board. We also carried FidoNet, GoatNet and other message networks. Alter Ego was among the first BBS' in the area to offer free internet email to its users in 1997. Like all BBS', the internet eventually made it obsolete, but running Alter Ego, meeting the people who logged in and learning about computers changed my life. I ran it from my sophomore year in High School through Freshman year in college. What great fun it was! -James (Striker)

"The internet came really late to rural parts of South Carolina and the BBS scene was still going even into the late 90s. I ran Deviant as a ANSI art board - my goal was to have a really pretty and streamlined BBS full of style. Helping the ANSI community was a real pleasure and Deviant provided endless entertainment for me and I hope others. Moreover the community was just great - I made several life long friends through Deviant and other BBSes. At its height my board was burning up the phone lines with 40+ calls per day... my only regret is that I never could spring for more phone lines. At some point Bell South offered an upstate calling plan for a flat rate and this really opened up the entire 864 area code for a lot of people. There were dozens of BBSes all over the place and it was great fun to sit and let Telix run through my list... thanks to all the other sysops - this was a wonderful hobby. (g)" - Magnus
