    created?

    No, Mystic is way better. You should check it out. I hear it runs on iPad.

    Depends on what you define a "feature" as. There is quite a bit SBBS does that goes well beyond what one would expect a typical Bulletin Board System to do (like Hotline support, among other things) and while neat some are more practial than others, but sure, on a whole it's got more going on than I'd expect on any other BBS software package, if only for the sake of having such functions.

    No. Other BBS packages have the exact same features Synchronet has (granted Synchronet has a few more). For instance, WINServer and Synchronet have a lot of the same features (I run both, actually, and I also run Mystic as my main FTN mail system).

    Not per se MORE than other branded BBS softwares, but Sync certainly does it
    in its own way... and if you're good at Java/Baja, it would really be the package software for you.

    I used to use Renegade, so Mystic is more up my alley... more what I
    remember, and easier to use in 2020 because it works a lot (well... simalarly to anyway) how RG used to be programmed/modded; then you just have to add learning the MPL or Python coding part; BUT...

    Sync could be changed from the GROUND UP - and IMO much MORE than Mystic -
    but most folks don't do that, and the ones who do......... I just haven't
    seen a COMPLETELY changed Sync board yet - well... electronic chicken bbs
    kinda does it- much in the same way that archaic binary does on the mystic side. Both of those boards are COMPLETELY modified and look what they created
    - I think *THATS* what a real sysop is; the rest of use, at different levels, just modify the system so-so...

    For *ME*, my bbs is *MY* portal to the bbs world. Sure, I hope other people like it and want to use it... but I don't have the skills that:

    electronic chicken
    archaic binary
    hustler
    vertrauen (BUT his bbs is like... syncronet is HIS so i have a lot of respect for HIS bbs, even tho its basic Sync... its still HIS!)
    hax0rs place
    aBSINTHE
    and my very favorite "newcomer" THE UNDERGROUND on mystic...

    ^^^those guys REALLY push the softwares. AND, many other 'longtime' bbses... acid underworld, necro, bottomless abyss, TQW, etc...

    But sync is a badass software, IF you mod it correctly. It can be changed in ANY way you want. For that, sync is special..
