    Hey everybody!

    My alias is thunderox and my name is Philip.
    I am soon to be 18 years old and world of BBS that is still kickin' strong
    even in 2021 is fascinating to me.
    Figured I would like to try and send a message on the board.
    I am currently exploring the world of BBS & would like to set up a little BBS of my own (WIP!).

    All the best,
    ~thunderox (Philip)

    Hey everybody!

    Hey there :)

    My alias is thunderox and my name is Philip.

    Avon here (look up an old telly show called Blakes 7) that's my alias but in real life it's Paul... either is fine :)

    I am soon to be 18 years old and world of BBS that is still kickin'
    strong even in 2021 is fascinating to me.

    Cool, glad you are having fun with it.

    Figured I would like to try and send a message on the board.

    You made it to New Zealand where it's summer right now :)

    I am currently exploring the world of BBS & would like to set up a
    little BBS of my own (WIP!).

    Perhaps you'll end up with a fsxNet node of your own.

    Sing out if you need any help.

    Best, Paul

    Sounds like a good plan! =)

    Creating your own BBS is a great way to learn how everything fits together. Many decisions along the way, of course, but nevertheless very rewarding!

    Make sure to have a look at the FSX_BBS echo (and perhaps some software-specific ones such as FSX_MYS for Mystic or FSX_MAG for Talisman etc.), too!

    Best regards

    Welcome to the network, and to BBSing! I first got introduced to it around your age. 30+ years later I am still using/running them. :)

    I was gonna ask you about that! There's also a character named Avon in the TV series called "The Wire."

    It's also a beauty/cosmetics company which does door-to-door sales in the USA.

    I'd best check that one out also... but yeah my alias is inspired of the old
    UK SciFi show from the 80's... Avon was a bit of a bad ass but he kept the
    crew out of harm and always seemed to have a plan to save the day which I
    kinda liked... more brains over brawn :)
