A decent, free BBS is on my list of shit to build. Right after "homemade vodka distillery."

I went through a internet dbase scripting phase a while back, and had the same idea... iKonboard was already free, and way more feature-packed than I'd ever have time to write.
The dtman.com front page was even sripted for a while, then my then-ISP screwed me over by deleting all of my databases.

Yeah, but there's some features you just don't use that much. & it's the ultimate killshot against spam.
A decent, functioning BBS isn't that shitty of a project.
