It's been a long time since I've posted on a forum on an Amiga BBS and it's great to see some networks are up and running. I'm curious to know how many folks are out there and how many are working with classics vs the current hardware.

Is there much activity in the other Fidonet Amiga forums? What does the NF stand for in the Amiga forum?

Great to be here, looking forward to posting.

Well, I am running a Amiga BBS and I also call out with it, but it is an emulated system. It is rare that I Call boards with a Syncterm or Netrunner.

What does the NF stand for in the Amiga forum?

I do not know what you are talking about. Which forum? This Echo
is calles "amiga" there is no NF anywhere.

The BBS I'm on has a Fidonet forum that is called Amiga NF, but I'm
not sure what the NF stands for. The BBS just connected to Fidonet so there aren't any old posts to go back and read.

BBSes can name the areas differently.
The fidonet area is called "amiga"

... Of course I talk to myself. I love intelligent conversation!

I am here.
What do you mean classic vs. current Hardware?
I do have an Amiga 1200 and an Amiga 500.

They are purely used for recreational retro purposes if that was the question.

I do not know of other forums in fidonet.
There is an othernet calles amynet.
There is some life there.
