    No, not really.

    Are you a Sysop?

    Can you elaborate? Are you feeling bored and not sure what to do with your BBS?

    He probably means the fact that days and days go by without any users calling in and why do we even bother when there isn't an audience.

    Last I heard, he didn't have his BBS open to the public..

    That might be another reason then.

    I still do it, as I enjoy it...and it's one of the few hobbies that
    I can still do. Plus, the BBS, and my other 2 hobbies of ham radio,
    and square dancing, help me forget about the other stressful things
    in my life.
