I'm in no way attacking the Santos's. But as i see it the BBS scene is on it's
last leg. A modern version of the BBS could repopulate our hobbies. As of 2018
there are over 29M WordPress blogs online. It's Sysops comeback time.

Facebook is dropping traffic. Folks will never trust Zuck again, no matter how
many TV ads he runs. Our data is how social media makes a profit.

The BBS scene is dying because sysops and Fidonet heads have not kept up with
tech. Wildcat / Winserver is the package to update visually to be mobile
compatable. I'm not a coder but decent in PHP and HTML. Might be able to whip
up a responsive / mobile theme for Wildcat 5. At least it's not calling up
javascript files from within it's wcx.

No need for JavaScript.. Thinking that's where Hector ran into problems with
Winserver 7 and gave up. For a BBS calling up wcx and html should be all
that's needed.

... Just my two cents worth - don't shoot the messenger :)
