There's no difference.  sysops are the users now.
and we're all people. there's reasons why these online services
are popular.

Yeah i've heard him talk about it several times.  we already have like 5 of
those sites that people don't really utilize anymore.

People like to paint me as a negative nancy but pretty much nobody else has
put more time and money into getting people interested in bbsing and getting
old bbsers back into the hobby for 20+ years.

The fact is, people go with what they like.
