    The bbs scene appears to be slowing down some. New users, and posts have taken a hit this month.

    I have noticed that as well. Wonder if it's just the warmer weather and people going out or it's a continual downward trend? Sometimes I wonder if I should even keep this up or not? We all need to get regular people on BBS's not just sysops, and that seems to be a difficult thing to do for some reason. Plus, I see some of these very well established BBS's out there and think that I am lightyears behind them and can never catch up to what they have going on. Frustrating. What the heck can I offer that a thousands other BBS's don't already have the will drive folks my way? Thats is the $ 64,000 question. If anyone is running SBBS, then we all probably have very similar things available.

    I think one of the main things going on right now are, people not staying inside as much. It's warm out..I made the mistake of closing my old board down when things got slow. I won't be doing it again, that's for sure. Stay the course sir.
