BBS was our social media back in the day.  Especially when we had BBS with 2 
lines so we could chat.   Hooked up with a few women actually that way .. its 
true

    Trade Wars, I think that was on multiple platforms then.

     

    I ran a Macintosh BBS in the late 80’s on “Second Site” software and had 
like all possible software cracked and ready for download on my 100MB SCSI hard 
drive.

     

    There were a few turn based online games on my system as well, that the 
software “guy” updated every now and then.

     

    I remember he gave me the pascal code at one point and I did modify some 
stuff.

     

    Fun times!

    Empire seems to ring a bell.  It’s been over 30 years so kind of hazy and 
most of the time spent was the middle of the night.  It’s amazing how much less 
sleep I used to need apparently.

      Anyone into hardware these days wouldn’t even understand how basic stuff 
was,   a few hundred MB HDD was nearly a grand,  to get lots of files online 
for download cd changers would be used,  pretty cool how it all worked.

      What did you run the BBS on?  Our biggest local BBS ran on an Amiga 2000 
with 24 modems but I don’t remember much else about it.  I was one of the 
sysops for a while………. Best part of it was the games.  The Risk type game was 
pretty much determined by whoever got in first after Midnight (when you could 
make the moves for the day) who knew what they were doing.

        Ok let me rephrase.  Has anyone used Mikrotik as a BMU as an LNS server 
to connect to another provider's LAC server.   With powercode managing the 
leases. 

         

        Just curious if it can be done.
