-List of past and present Hamilton
[BBS]'s.
-----
-
-(I suggest not creating a node for BBSes that weren't run by WLUG members. -- CraigBox)
-
-Past:
-
-* __TheDigitalDream__ 1995-1996 - SysOp: OliverJones (aka Dreamer)
-* __[Toontown]__ 1996-1998 - CraigBox (aka Criggie)
-* __EchoesBbs__ 1996 perhaps? - GreigMcGill (aka Rider)
-* Wyrms 1993-1995? - Lincard 1000
-* Tower of Z - 1994-1995? - Richard Gallagher (aka The Green Banana) (ToZ was the first BBS in
Hamilton to run Renegade
BBS Software)
-* Dixons x-x - Pass
-* The Bridge Baud x-x - Bryan Beecher
-* Koinonia - 1989-1990 - SysOp: IanMcDonald (first 24 hour BBS in Hamilton, first with two phone lines, first to have a reliable FidoNet connection, first to have a HUGE 40 MB hard drive)
-* more...
-
-zcat(1) is still the 'official' BBS list maintainer, although I pretty much gave up
-maintaining it when there were only two BBSes left, (Galaxy and Dixons). Here's the Hamilton part of the most recent list. I have the entire list if anyone wants it, unfortunately I never kept any earlier versions; I suck as a historian!
-
-BTW; Global network is probably not a BBS; it was a node-only in '99 and is already not in this copy of the list.
