I've been seeing that silly 24 hour warning since the days of Wildcat! BBS systems....

Now THAT's a blast fro the past.

Mustang Systems..wonder what ever became of them??? I used to have a BBS running their software in the 80's until I got too popular and ran up the family phone bill for the 2nd line...LOL

Thanks for the trip down memory lane Karl....:)

If I'm not mistaken, they wrote an ok Customer Messaging Tool for customer service via email. Could be a different Mustang.

WildCat! was sold off and it was picked up by Santronics who still continue to make it.. there are a few systems running it still as it's very web/internet oriented now.

Amen, my brothers. This talk reminds me of just how long I've been doing this stuff.
What a long strange trip it's been.:)

I just tossed a Qmodem box out a couple of months ago. Traded emails with John Freil a couple of years ago. He runs an ISP in Iowa now.

Let's not forget the T.A.G. BBS system. One of the best ones in its days. I forget all the other crazy ones that were out there, but there were definately a lot of hacks of some of the more original one, and T.A.G. was one very good hack. I forget which system it was based off of, but I sure do miss running my T.A.G. BBS.

Re: Are they even able to do that?

I believe T.A.G was based off of the WWIV bbs, which was a sort of open source at the time.
