There is no consensus about that. In Z2 users flags are subject to the ZC's
fiat. Other zones may have other restrictions. FTS-5001 says this about user
flags: "advertisement is strictly prohibited".

You want to advertise your BBS, don't you?

There is a nodelist field that has less restrictions: the system name field.
AFAIK the only restrictions are that for an IP or email capable node it must
not look like an fqdn or e-mail address.

So you could put this in the system name field: "Paul's_BBS:12345"


Cheers, Michiel
