  • Discord & BBS Scene

    From Geri Atricks@21:3/235 to All on Sat Jun 13 15:02:50 2026
    I have created a server for the BBS Scene on Discord: https://discord.gg/nTcDnYAxNj

    I also have one on Stoat: https://stt.gg/JncQ3s4Y

    Also, is anyone else getting an error when they start SyncTERM about not being able to connect to the SyncTERM BBS List?

    Thanks Niter, the only thing besides my server that would come up when I searched for BBS on either Discrod or Disboard where mostly Bleach related in some way.

    Is this idea of a BBS related discord server something to bring people over from www into BBSs? I enjoy chatting *right in* a BBS rather than Discord.

    I'm not.. And I'm not sure what that error means - The SyncTerm BBS list is stored locally (in a subdirectory from your user directory), so it's not something that has to be connected to. Unless it's referring to something else..?

    I've actually gotten several new users from advertising on Discord and Stoat. Some of them that have never used a BBS before and are now enjoying the old Door Games. One of them is in love with DoorMUD.

    I don't know, it brings up my address book just fine. I think it's trying to connect to the online list to update or something. I don't know. In all the years I've been using SyncTERM this is something I've only started seeing in like the last week or so.

    I'll try to remember to get a screen cap next time and share it.
