I couldn't agree more.  What I have always enjoyed about BBS systems
through out the years, has been the "community" atmosphere.  The
conversation, people, and atmosphere is what does it for me.  It is like
comparing a big city to a small town where everyone knows each other.  Both
have their own place. Quality vs. quantity works better in my book.
