Welcome back

Remember the modem handshake, redialing through busy signals, and watching an ANSI screen paint itself one line at a time? Old Time BBS is a working board in the spirit of those days: message bases, door games, ANSI art, and a sysop who reads every post.

The phone line is a telnet connection now. Everything else is about how you left it. Pull up a chair.
