Dear Interested SysOp,
MetroNet began in 1994 with as little as 3 bulletin boards
in South-West Pennsylvania and quickly expanded to well over
63 boards through-out Pennsylvania and a few western states.
Slowly but surely the InterNet reared it's ugly head into
town and the users were no longer interested in "lowly bbs's"
but all the "pretty pictures" of the InterNet. The BBS's
tried to put up a fight, but couldn't stand up to it. BBS's
began shutting down, along with that, dropping out of our
network and taking their users (what was left) with them.
If this sounds like something you'd enjoy, please fill
out the METROAPP.XXX application (or run METROAPP.EXE) and
netmail or email it back to me. (Replacing the XXX with your
initials please) We are always looking for people who want
to hub/host mail for BBS's that are still alive in their
particular area.
Mail can be transfered by standard telnet sessions with
mailer to mailer or by other such mailers as Internet Rex,
or any other newer style fidonet style mailer.
Mail will mostly be transferred via BinkP on port 24554.
If you feel you can help out, or interested, please
by all means join our network and help us rebuild it
better than before.
Thanks in advance,
T.J. McMillen
