Description of BBS

Back after 30 years. Original BBS software which is likely one of the most flexible available for the C64. BBS software available for free including source code to others that want to run a bbs on it. BBS itself is generally the way it was when shut down 30 years ago... a bit of a time capsule.

Which terminal program are you using? I will double check the listing info and test it also.

Hey Danny,
So the domain name he submitted was wrong I updated that, it should be : microtownbbs.com

With that said it is not working for me either and I see reports from others on the same issue to, I have emailed Jeff to see if it is up or down and will update you here when I hear back.

Thanks for getting back to me on this.

Jeff just emailed me this evening, there were some issues today but he did get the BBS back up. Give it a try, be sure to use the corrected URL from above. 😉
