Commodore 64/128 Bulletin Board List

[Andrew Wiskow]

I would like to formally announce the "resurrection" of the C64/128 Bulletin Board List. This list had been released monthly years ago, but it has not been updated since October 2003. I've decided to take it upon myself to bring this list back to life. I'm keeping the same basic format as the old list, but I'm including all known dial-up AND Telnet boards (the old list was for dial-up only). Anyway... I hope some of you will find this useful...  :-)

The ASCII text version of the list can be found here:

The PETSCII text version of the list can be found here:
http://hometown.aol.com/cottonwoodbbs/cbm-bbs-list.seq

Credit goes to Golan Klinger for compiling the TelBBS List, from which I aquired the BBS names and Telnet addresses used in this list.

Thanks also to all the SysOps who provided additional information used in this list.

Current stats on C64/128 BBS's:  As of today, 12 are up and running.  2 were up last month, but are not working right now, so will remain on the list to see if they return.  1 is down, but I've received confirmation from the SysOp that it will be returning.  4 were removed from the list due to being down for over 2 months and no communication from the SysOp.

There you have it!  :-)

Thanks for keeping this list up, Andrew. Though I'm not much of a BBSer myself, I think it's important to keep information like this out there and current.

In an effort to consolidate my various websites onto my own server, the C64/128 BBS List is now located at http://cottonwood.servebbs.com/cbm-bbs-list.txt  ...   I'll still keep it posted at the old address for a while, but eventually it'll only be available at the new address.

Additionally, the Cottonwood BBS Informational Website is now at http://cottonwood.servebbs.com, and my personal website is at http://cottonwood.servebbs.com/wiskow.  Simple HTML pages with a note providing the new addresses have been posted at the old addresses.

I haven't had a chance to update the C64/128 BBS List since May.  However, it looks like I won't have to anymore.  In my absence, Dave Spriggs took it upon himself to design a Commodore BBS List website.  This is an interactive website, allowing users to see both active and inactive BBS's, as well as edit listings and add new listings.  This will allow for a much more accurate way for people to find active Commodore-run BBS's.  So check it out!  The website is called the Commodore BBS Outpost, and it's at http://cbbsoutpost.servebbs.com/

Thanks for your hard work in keeping this topic alive, Andrew.

Without dedicated people like you, this hobby would fade away.
