this is how it was in the BBS days. We volunteered our time to run the boards because we enjoyed it and had the hardware. I covered the telco costs and electricity because i could, and enjoyed providing the space for my friends. When it stopped being feasible you passed the torch. There’s always someone else with the interest and the desire and the means to be in charge for a while!

There were pay bbs’ and i just didn’t use em cuz i was already at my limit paying for two phone lines and hardware.

I don’t mind pitching in now and then but I don’t feel like i owe any of the admins anything beyond gratitude.

shoot one portal in my bathroom. Carry the emergency bathroom gun everywhere just in case. No emergency will ever actually be important enough to use it but the peace of mind is always there…
