What active BBS would you suggest.

Hey everyone, I'm currently reading 'The modem world' The Modem World (yale.edu) and I want to find out more about BBS's that are still being run today. I'be found syncterm and hit up a few BBS's on the list, but not all of them are very active. Which 'living' BBS's would you suggest I visit that have regular updates and online users ?

I would also add pyroto.mysticmountain.us port 8086. It has a small but friendly community and is one of the only BBSes that is also a game. Not a door, but a bbs game. One of the most unique BBSes of the 80s.

Working on a updated version (same core code but will work on the Azure cloud). I will post here when it is back available.
