Just a note:
Out of the TOP-10 BBS systems listed in this year's Boardwatch Magazine
Top 100 BBS contest 3 of them were PCBoard systems. That is the highest
percentage of any software used by TOP-10 systems.
Of the TOP-100, PCBoard was the 2nd most used software, following
TBBS.
I am a firm believer that a sysop should choose the BBS package that
best suits his/her needs. Sometimes that is PCB, sometimes it is not.
One reason the PCB is so widely used is that it offers the functionality
to do just about anything the average sysop would need to do.
As with all products that target a wide user-base, PCB gets a bad rap
just because it is used so much (like MSWindows, for example - I cant
even count the number of anti-windows posts I've read).
Anyway, I am a PCB sysop - not because I think its the BEST pacakge
in the universe, but because it meets my needs. I suggest if PCB systems
bother you so much, don't call them. But, please don't roll us PCB sysops
into a single group of hitler-esque systyem operators. Some of us do run
pretty good systems. Despite the fact we chose PCB :)
Cheers,
Howie
