It sounds like you're picking a fight, MRO. So what if users are or aren't SysO
ps themselves? BBS'ing is a hobby, a passion-project, a labor of love. People s
hould be doing this, in my opinion, because they love doing it, not because they
want to convene some sort of mass-following of end-users or community-build.
That said, given the traffic that I am seeing on the active and *unique* BBS'es,
I am fairly convinced that most of these users are *not* SysOps. In particular
, I look at "20 for Beers," "CJ's Place," and "Valhalla" as good examples of ver
y active, unique, valuable BBS'es that don't just look like something that someo
ne else has done.
For that reason, if/when I set up a BBS, I would want to contribute something un
ique that makes people want to call and log in frequently. That will take time,
passion, and commitment. And I want to learn more about it.
