Funny how mine is doing quite well as a message based BBS with no files
whatsoever.  Plenty of regular callers.

>no one has said ProLine is the best file bbs,

In fact, I've given that, as stock, they are about even.  SuperTAC isn't
packaged with GBBS "Pro", it just happens to be what everyone runs.  That
is precisely why I refuse to run SuperTAC.  I don't run a clone system.
Never have, never will.  The transfer area I have is for my and my co's
use only, written by myself.

Oh, and I don't really use that many networked systems.  I like the
atmosphere of local systems, with the occasional "of local interest"
message is forwarded from a network.  It makes it less intrusive.
