When life is all around and threatening to destroy you, simply go to your happy place and count your numbers.. I got through many public stonings this way.
As the former beloved sysop of Demented Domain, I feel most assuredly your pain of the loss of the BBS communities. I fought it as long as I could, but when I got down to about 4 calls a day, I figured it was time to give up. I was a devoted fan of the renegade system which ran quite well under DesqView . As for finding a substitute these days for what has been lost, the best thing I've found is ICQ/EGN/AIM, slashdot, betanews, and archmage. Nothing like the old days I'm afraid, although if there was ever enough interest I would love to be a sysop once more.
