      Yohan,              Did you ever figure this out? Back in the day there was a bbs called dkeep.com       that hosted a number of other BBS's for dkeep.com's Swords of Chaos game. At       least 7 separate BBSs' users would connect to the dkeep.com Swords of Chaos       server when the users        entered the game from their own BBS.              For instance, one bbs was gaianet.net. So if a user on gaianet.net entered the       SoC game, they would actually be entering the SoC game on dkeep.com. Dkeep.com       kept track of the users from different BBS's by appending a character after       the foreign bbs user'       s account name. So if user "example" from gaianet.net entered the SoC game,       their in-game username would be "example_K" with the "_K" denoting the user       was from gaianet.net.              Other BBSs had other appendages after their users' account names to       differentiate.              I've been trying for a long time to figure out how dkeep.com was able to setup       this host/guest Swords of Chaos game format. Do you think it was accomplished       using this DMA server you are referencing? Please let me know.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
