Hi Everyone,
Is there a more up to date manual for mystic bbs, apart from the online wiki which is incomplete or is out of date with respect to the current version of mystic? I have seen many of Avon's videos on youtube but alas many of these are now out of date, even though they can point you in the right direction.

the short answer is no, not really.

Re the videos, I debate about taking them down as I don't want to lead people totally astray, and yep well aware they should ideally be updated but I'll get to them when I do.

If there's some specifics you want to know about feel free to ask here and folks will chime in with helpful answers etc.

If there's something amiss / could be added to the wiki I can help with that.

If you can find me the extra 25th hour in the day that would be amazing too :)

I was thinking about doing an updated 'how to' setup Mystic & an FTN video, or series... time will tell. (Unless you have desire to doso, of course.)

Yeah I'm still thinking I'll do something.

Devil's in the detail.

Hi,
No leave the videos on youtube, they do help even though they are out of date. They made me make the jump from synchronet to mystic. I am still rewatching them as I rebuild my BBS. In the 90's I did write some bbs software for the Amiga with a friend but then the internet came and killed off the bbs scene.
Peace.

Ok - I WON'T, then. :P (Happily, of course - was just asking so not to step on toes...)
