Improvements galore! 🙂

Okay, I logged in last night with SyncTerm v1.7a and everything looked fine - no problems at all. So...just a glitch in the Matrix. 🙂

Everyone should call DarkForce! today - but beware! strange things are afoot! Take care with all the Main Menu choices... 😃

Here is the lucky winner for March 2025 at The DarkForce! BBS: March 2025 1. Bob_C - wins a NetUSBee...! ------------------------------------------------------------- Congratulations to our winner, and thanks to all our callers! 🙂 PS Bob_C, I need your actual physical address.

Yep. I'll report what it does the next time I login there. Thanks.

I did upgrade SyncTerm to v1.7b but I had already called Cheese Daddy with it a couple of times since the upgrade, and it seemed to work fine then. I'm sticking with it was a glitch in the Matrix. 😀

Well, that's not the first time I've called into there with SyncTerm. It's always worked fine before. Guess it was just a glitch in the matrix? 😃

Yeah, it really doesn't fill it out like it's supposed to be. I'm really digging VT52 now though. After getting used (again) to VT52's screen response, it's kind of a drag to go back to ANSI... 🙂

Thanks for the picture. Acknowledge it can be done, see that it can be done, but my over-riding question would be, why do this? 🙂 I mean, compared to ANSI mode with an ANSI font, the output is not nearly as attractive. ANSI with a Atari ST VT52 font is like the worst of both worlds... 😁

That's a great story. 🙂

Good luck to all, and thanks for calling! 🙂

Excellent - free publicity...! 🙂

This is from the recent flooding we had, followed by around 5" of snow and ice. Just never a dull day around these parts... 🙂

Awesome pictures - looked like a great show, wonderful follow up to the success of the first one. Was it mostly 8bit and older then? I noticed a clear case Amiga 'n such but I didn't see a whole lot of 16bit machines, including the ST, on display. Thanks, and wish I could have been there. 🙂

I did....I read it out loud (long version), setting behind him in traffic, then my subconscious mind put the shortened (funny) version together. Gotta admit, I laughed out loud. 🙂

Okay, there's still a problem. However, there seems to be an easy fix. If I go into a message thread and the grey bar is showing, I can go back out to "All Posts", then back into that thread and the icons show up. Don't know why it's doing that but at least it's resolvable. 🙂

Okay, it finally worked - but I had to go out of this message thread, in to another one (which showed it working) then back into this one and hey, bingo! it started working. Thanks! 🙂

After logging, back out and in again...

Replying here because I couldn't reply directly to you. I grabbed a screenshot:

BTW, why is that sometimes you can't give a "like" but it's only a grey bar instead? Thanks.
