WINSnet

Supporting Wildcat! SysOPs for 20+ years!

WINSnet is an FTN echomail network set up by Thomas Kloos, Frank Rauhuff, and Robert Wolfe to support Sysops who run Wildcat! for DOS, or Wildcat! Interactive Net Server (WINS) BBS software.

Today, in an effort to generate a stable and rich network, we have added more echomail areas, and are allowing systems of any type. You will notice some WINServer specific conferences, this doesn't mean other systems cannot post in these conferences, please understand, WINServer is at our core, but we need to branch out, and we welcome all other systems into our network.

Like any other, it depends on if anyone has anything to say. :D

Hi Tom

That's right what Jon said!

It has become a quiet society.... unfortunately!

hahahaha

Either the others are totally frustrated... no, joking aside...
They switched to Discord, which of course further questioned this network.

But, my opinion, The networks are what makes BBS'ing!

Greetings from germany
