AARGH!   EBBS?   All-American?!    ST/R!!   Excuse me while I puke!  (WRETCH!)
Ah, that's better.

    Hey, if someone is looking for BBSs, they should look for GOOD ones.
I've seen a lot of Commodore BBSs come and go, including a lot of different
formats.   If you can find any, and I'm sure there are still a lot around,
try to get your hands on Deadlock BBS Construction Kit, CMBBS, SCBBS, or
Color 64 or 128.   All of these are Color/Graphics, some 2400 baud but all
are 1200, Punter and XModem, mostly in BASIC for easy modification.
    Puh-lease.    All-American indeed!   That must be the worst -- well, no.
ST/R BBS is by all means the worst.    EBBS is all right, but because it's
easy to use, a lot of people have it, plus it doesn't offer expansion unless
you decompile it then recompile it, which gets to be a pain in the butt-ski.
    Another one that's pretty good is C-Net/DS-II.    I've never worked with
it myself, but a lot of people have it.  However, you need AT LEAST two drives
to make it any good.
    All-American!   ST/R!   EBBS!    HA HA HA ha ha ha .. .. ..
