Archaic Binary is an easy to use BBS open to the public. Lots to do! I have created the majority of doors myself, tools available for playing around. Door games locally and via game networks. We have active message areas, local and networked. Advanced security available with SyncTERM using SSH (username/password in SyncTERM is archaic/binary, you will authenticate later), Two Factor Authentication on accounts, SFTP Access available to files.
Custom Doors like; Your Local Weather, Reddit Reader, Justice Stats & Crime Stats from DoJ, NASA Astronaut Photo of the Day, Live Data from Religion of Peace, BBS Listings pulled monthly from “The Telnet BBS Guide”, Torrent Searching, and USCCA Stories, and Small Pastebin door that allows public and private pastes.
Some doors are integrated with access via HTTPS (USCCA, Pastebins, etc…) links are generated with my home-made link shorting service, Archaic.Link
Home of ArchaicNET the public BBS File Sharing Network.
No need for archaic ZModem/XModem/YModem protocols on Archaic Binary, instead “HTTPmodem” will generate short links and allow you to download files over HTTP/HTTPS. Legacy protocols are still available for expert users.

their screens



every screen this board has drawn for a caller before login — 3 so far, since . a board that changes its welcome art keeps every screen here; one we stop meeting on our regular calls is let go after three visits and six months. the art belongs to its sysop and its artists.
