  • Should VERT/ALT119 have posting priveleges revoked?

    From Nightfox@VERT/DIGDIST to All on Wednesday, August 12, 2026 08:15:16
    I've been seeing a bunch of what look like automated bot posts, with usernames that change, from the system with QWK ID "VERT/ALT119" (the origin line still says "My Brand-New BBS"). I wonder if posting priveleges from this BBS should be revoked?
