I used to run a Renegade BBS for like 3 years in south florida, with 300+ members and tons of warez & porn. We'd have some big parties and get togethers, I'd say everyone was pretty much in high school, with the occasional old guy freak in the mix.

I still remember laying in bed, and never being able to get much sleep cause every time I heard that click of the modem I had to jump out of bed to see who was logging on... damn those were the days...
Actually, I know ACiD is still around because they shifted over to VGA and SVGA graphics as things were changing. I still think the ANSI is the most impressive, though.

Where in South Florida? I lived in Ft. Lauderdale, Pompano Beach and Port Charlotte. Port Charlotte is where I discovered BBS's. That was the 813 area code (just across the bridge from Punta Gorda). Was that your area?
