now you're catching on. stock sysops are part of the problem. someone
sees this guy's shitty bbs and never returns to the land of bbsing. also
he talks to his friends and tells of his shitty experience. bad word of mouth for all of us.
The scenario you described is entirely possible. On the other hand, the newcomer could just leave the boring BBS and move along to the next one in the list, which might be a better system. (Or not.) I suspect that anyone who would give up that easily wouldn't stick around for long in any case.
Of course, that's not to say that people shouldn't be encouraged to customize. The more systems there are with good content, the sooner a newcomer will stumble across them, the more reason they'll have to stay. I know that's what you're trying to say - it's just too bad that you're not better at saying it. If you really wanted to change the situation, well ... something something flies, honey, vinegar, and so on.
now you're catching on, ecunt. treat everything i say as gospel and
literal and you will go a long way.
Pathetic. I feel sorry for you. Best wishes.
