    New to FSXNet and wanted to introduce myself. Randy Henderrson aka Gargoyle. Dark Ages BBS a multi-node bbs from 1994 to December 1999, we moved from the Blanchard OK to a remote unknown location :-) It was of the few Multi-nodes BBS's in Oklahoma City. There was only 2 others and they were Pay BBS's. We were always free to dial-up and multi-game. In 1996 we started offer FIDO Net feeds at greatly reduced cost (a lot cheaper than we were paying for them) by downloading the files via the internet and using a software called GIGO (Garbage In Garbage Out written in spaghetti C) Mainly FrontDoor 2.02 did all the work. We setup Doom multiplayer games, with me at the console and three dialups we had 4 person games going all the time I wrote some Pascal programs to make my own Renegade Utilities. We had several Utilities published on the old Software vault BBS Cd's I miss those days of the BBS and often wondered of some way to bring it back! We moved on to Web Hosting and Domain registrations at www.okie.net but sure miss the interaction with our BBS users. So over the past few years we have experimented with different software’s and it just made sense to put a Linux board on a VPS so here we are.

    It's nice to see so many people returning to the BBS scene -- fsxNet is a
    great "enabler" for that.

    Best regards
