who?

oh i was wrong, it was a few years ago.

korombos was a big bbs guy;he was involved in a lot of stuff.

Sysops that got involved in bbsing when it was dead in the telnet age probably won't know who it is.

He made the sharkware stuff, sharkdriver, lord igms and worked on a bbs software i'm pretty sure.

Something happened where he tried to kill his family and had a big police standoff and another prominent bbs guy at the time got him to turn himself in
at his home.


Matt Munsen might know more, but there were rumors, too.

Ah, I hadn't heard about him.

I was into bbsing quite a bit before the telnet age but still don't remember the history here. But I was much more of an artscene guy back then.

Something happened where he tried to kill his family and had a big police standoff and another prominent bbs guy at the time got him to turn

Holy hell.
