I used to run a 22 line BBS on an Amiga no less. Started with 2400 baud modems, ended with a high of 28.8 (and one tempermental 32(?give or take?)). Ran for 7 years, and eventually died as the internet really took off (and support for the Amiga was failing, as Commodore went under not to long after it went online... Not that it ever had a lot of support. :) ).
Had lots of gatherings with local users. Halloween parties, christmas parties, my birthday parties. Lots of fun. Gave me my only real social life, before or since. :)
Don't really get that all that much with the internet.
