For those that don't know what I'm talking about, Age of Reason is a telnet
accessable BBS that's running on an Enhanced Apple IIe, using GBBS Pro as the
host software. AoR also features the adventure game Land of Spur, as it was
when last run on the Tacoma, WA BBS Dura Europos in the late 80's.
I use a tweaked copy of Jim Brain's tcpser[*] running on a Windows 2008 server
to handle the TCP/IP end of things. The IIe thinks it's talking to a 2400 baud
Smartmodem. :)
There is a small glitch in the hang-up routine - when you sign off, you'll
see the board start sending a modem init string. At that point, just close the
telnet session. I suspect I broke something when playing with the configuration
last night and I'll look into fixing that as soon as I can.
Thanks for your support and I hope you enjoy the system!

Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical
minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which
holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd
by the clean end.

I posted about your BBS today including screen animations and
instructions on how to get "online".
Thanks!
Hehe. That's great! Thanks for writing that up! The animation was great. :)
