============================================
What is BBS's to the MAX? BBSMAX includes everything other BBS listings
have left out. There are many free ways to list your BBS, one is to call
with your modem (Long Distance) at least every three months to keep your
listing updated. The main problem is that it may take 6 months to get it
listed and by then the information is usually out of date. It is free,
but the call's for the 4 or more updates most certainly are not! This
same listing also does not in reality even scrape the total amount of
BBS'ers or Modem Junkies that are just waiting to hear of "THE" BBS or a
new BBS, or even of the BBS that produces and supports the games, or
other software that they spend all night playing, or uploading to other
BBS's to fullfill their File Ratio needs. (Very helpfull to the many
Author and support BBS's that depend on their files being spread Nation
or even World Wide).
I have seen many local area listings, regional area listings, and a few
national listings floating around which may or may not charge the BBS to
be included, but they all seem to have lacked in describing fully what
the BBS'ers wanted to know about the BBS's File Area's, On-Line games,
and whether or not there were any Adult Files available to them on the
BBS.
BBS's to the MAX, has included most everything a user could possibly
want to know about your BBS. You may describe three specific fields
in more detail in your listings. such as what files or software your
BBS has in Beta Testing, or even which software your BBS supports.
The following describes all the fields covered by BBSMAX. If you feel
that there is a field that would compliment BBSMAX, please by all means
let me know, and we will see about adding it.
*The first will be the main access number to your BBS,
the numbers will be in order of Area Codes and then by the City.
Here is a little catch worth noting, the first BBS that applies to
BBSMAX in a specific city will always remain First and second to apply
will be second listed and so on.
*The (@) field right behind a number indicates that nodes Top Baud Rate,
You may have a total of five Public access nodes listed (another plus)
behind the main number, each includes that nodes Top Baud Rate.
*Amount of files available will be listed under the Main Number.
--All Baud Rates Must Be Actual Carrier Speeds Only! 2400, 9600, 14400 ect.
*The (C) will be the main CPU files Carried ( I= IBM and compatible, M= Mac,
A= Amiga, ect) I will add any not listed, that you support.
*The (N) is your boards total number of Nodes (Public and Private).
*The (P) is the total number of Public Nodes.
*The (S) is the total number of Subscriber or Private (Non-Public) Nodes.
*The (MEG) is the total number of MEG (not Gig) On-Line, including CD-ROM's.
*The (CD) is a Yes or No indicator of The BBS having CD-ROM's.
*The (#) is the total On-Line CD Drives available (enter 6 for a Multi 6 ).
*The (R) is a Yes or No if your BBS Rotates any CD-Rom Disks.
*The (ASP) is a Y or N for a BBS registered with The A.S.P.
ASP is a registered trade mark of the Association of ShareWare Professionals
*The (HRS) is the total hours per day the BBS is On-Line.
*The (B) indicates a BBS has a Beta Test area for software products, Y or N.
*The (A) indicates an Authors or Software Support BBS, Y or N.
*The (V) indicates a Visiting SYSOP area or conference available, Y or N.
*The (X) indicates an Adult File Area is available on the BBS, Y or N.
*The (O) indicates On-Line games available on the BBS, Y or N.
*The (T) indicates there is a Trail Membership available by amount of days.
*The (%) is the nuber of files a user may DL before an Upload(File Ratio).
*The ($) indicates a Support or Subscription membership is available. Y or N
*The (U) indicates use of an Upload Processor on the BBS. Y or N.
*The (Z) indicates Z Modem Protocol is available.
*The (2) indicates a Two way Protocol is available.
*The (M) indicates Message Bases, Mailers, Networks ect. (For details on
your Messages ect. make a "M =" in the application)
Each BBS listing includes eight total lines. See the BBSMAX00.LST file
for an example. The first release will be BBSMAX01.LST, it will be a
monthly issue until it is so large that it must be broken down to be able
to get it around. Then there will be a complete issue every 3 or 6 months
with All the BBS's listings included, But there will always be a monthly
issue with the new or updated BBS listings included.
Each listing will have three areas in which to fully describe the BBS
You may use any of the fields above. For an example "#" is the Number of
Cd Drives On-Line so you could have an entry describing the disks like:
# = NightBird 8, NightBird 9, and Visual Graphics. For "O" you could have
( O = Land of Floods,) which tells which Door Games you have. or you could
just put what ever you wish in the three lines
There is a Main Interest Line to add what the main file interests are.
For example (Main Interest = Large Adult File Area).
Then there is the name of the SysOp.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
To be included in the first issue fill out the SYSOP.APP file and
send it in with the fee to the address at the end of the application.
Fees are $10.00 for One year of listings.
$ 5.00 for an Update.
This seems very reasonable for one year, probably less than the free
listings cost you in Phone Charges alone. And its for a full year.
If you have a NewUser Questionaire, add the line asking where they
heard about Your BBS and see for yourself if it is worth another year.
