    The MajorBBS Emulator (MBBSEMU) is an exciting new project created by lifelong MajorBBS aficionado Wndrbr3d. Written in .Net core and C# it is a cleanroom implementation of the MajorBBS core containing NO outside intellectual property. The goal is to replicate the environment necessary to be binary compatible with the existing MBBS/WG1/2 module base similar to DOSBox.
    By maintaining binary compatibility MBBSEMU fully preserves the modules we know and love exactly as they existed in 1996. There has been a fury of progress and in a few short weeks Wndrbr3d has implemented a telnet server, new user sign up and the functions needed to natively run both the GWW Archery and T-LoRD modules.
    For over 20 years many individuals have worked to keep MajorBBS running on modern systems for the sole purpose of having a platform to play these modules. MBBSEMU eliminates the headache of having to setup the MajorBBS DOS core and the pain of maintaining it. If MajorBBS has a future in 2020 MBBSEMU is it!
