• Bots Be Gone

    Are you tired of bots trying to log onto your Mystic BBS?
    Tired of "hackers" who just slap a bunch of random keys
    instead of logging in?

    I forget how I did this because I set it up a long time ago,
    but when someone calls my board, the first thing they see is
    a menu like this:

    "Hello, welcome to Bunker 3. If you are a human being,
    press the number 1 on your keyboard."

    It really slows people down. After a person finally
    realizes that they must poke the 1 key, they are presented
    with the actual login screen.

    ... Read messages, not taglines
