Let's Go BBSing at Armageddon BBS!

Let’s Go BBSing at Armageddon BBS!

It has been literally decades since BBSing had its heyday. But believe it or not, despite the technology being so old, there are some nostalgic SysOps who have decided to put their boards back online.

I happen to be one of them. In fact, this is about the fifth time that I have resurrected the Armageddon BBS since 1993. I have recreated it entirely, so that it looks very much like it did back during the 1990s and earlier in the 2,000s.

If you are a little curious regarding what us old guys did back in the day before the Internet was invented, check out the Armageddon BBS.

If you happen to be a macOS user, simply use the Terminal app that is located in your "Utilities" folder, which itself is located inside of your "Applications" folder.

Once the Terminal launches, type what you see in this graphic. In other words, type the following:

telnet armageddonbbs.net 2300

Make sure that you leave a space after the word "telnet", as well as after armageddonbbs.net"

Then, simply hit your return key, and hopefully, you will be connected to the Armageddon BBS within a few seconds. You will know, because you will see a bright, colorful ANSI graphics welcome image appear in the Terminal, set against a black background.

For an even BETTER experience, if you are on a Silicon Mac, please download the official "Hermes Terminal" app at the following URL:

IMPORTANT:

Being as you have never visited before, at the first prompt, it is important that you type the word "new" -- so that your BBS account can be set up for you. You will be asked a few simple questions to establish your identity. After that, you will be immersed in the old world of PC-ANSI graphics, and typing menu commands on your keyboard.

And, by the way, all of my Bill's Bible Basics ministry work is on the Armageddon BBS as well. You may also want to visit the board's companion website at:

Enjoy your BBSing. I await your visit.
