Hi Hooper,

well we started in I think 1991 with Bread board bbs software, which later was called TBBS. then we went to a 6 line Wildcat System running usr's and desqview.

Finally got up to Major BBS, Gcomm. 60 lines, Fast Isdn Line, etc.

Did pretty good with it, since we were huge in selling adult cdroms, content wasn't a problem. had 2 7 disk cd changers, 14 cd's worth of adult pics online. I do remember in I think 1995 when the guy from FL that your talking about came out with the live video on Worldgroup / major bbs. by that time, major bbs still ran in DOS mode, but they came out with worldgroup, users would d/l like a 500 or 1 meg file or something, and they would like have a windows / gui interface to the BBS system. Audio, video, etc. I just can't remember what he called it. Fantasy Foxes come to mind, but I don't think that's it. mabey something like that.. Was like 3.99-4.99 per minute I think.

See Major bbs is where Ibill really got started and big at, back then Ibill, was called Logicomm, and they did 900 processing and other things for Major bbs sysops. I never used them, we had our own merchant accounts, and never wanted to mess with 900 calls, I.E. Minors could access, etc.

We kept rose city online running till about 98, then shut it down. I sometimes miss the local bbs thing, as we had parties all the time, people met on our system, got married, etc.
