Your BBS names ARE winners. This goofy BBS name of mine is limiting.
People don't wanna be seen logging into it.
Onlookers will say to them "Compufuck!? What kind of perverted website
are you on!?"
I'll admit - I borrowed the name from an early 90s BBS porn group. It's probably a bad idea to associate myself with them like that, but it's a chance I'm taking.
In today's world you need something catchy to grab people's attention, be it
a name, unique look or one of a kind software/setup.
It's real easy for someone to download and setup synchronet or mystic,
making it stand out from the rest is the challenge. People who put no effort before the basic install are more of a hinder to this hobby than a help. The only people who should be running a "stock" looking system are the authors
of said software. After all, "stock" synchronet or mystic systems are just copies of Digital Man's and g00r00's system, since it is their software.
