Are you using the bbslink.py script?

I edited mine a little bit to make it a bit faster & clean up the Output a bit.  I just commented out these lines below the clear screen line:

os.system("clear")
#print "  BBSlink.net Linux connection client " + version + "\n  -=- Courtesy of Sampsa Laine, B4BBS (2:250/7), http://sampsa.com/b4bbs  -=- "
#print " "
#print "  Connecting to BBSlink.net, please wait..."
#print " "
#time.sleep(2)


I still get the telnet connecting messages, but they're only there for a brief moment before the door actually loads.
