    You can setup a default board, draw some mediocre and I and install a
    few door games. However, to make it your own board and deck it out, you have to program.

    Most BBS softwares don't use scripting or have a programming language that w with them at all. Sure, a couple of the softwares brought up in this conversation actually do, but most don't. So I'm not sure where this comment comes from. You don't /need/ to program anything at all. Old school menu editing, Modifying prompts, changing all the screens, putting content on the that isn't the same as everyone else's, etc. doesn't involve programming.

    so writing java script isnt programming? thanks for the tips dude!

    You do not need to write a single line of JS to customize your
    Synchronet BBS. Read that a few more times until you understand it.

    You *CAN* write custom JS to do certain things, or modify existing JS
    (which doesn't usually require much JS knowledge), but you don't *have*
    to. That's the point.

    Now, since you don't intend to run a BBS anyway, why don't you stop your trolling and ..... go away.

    Sure it is. However, That's not what I said. I gave just about every other option possible in regards to modifying a BBS /without/ having to write javascript and/or program.

    You don't *need* to write (or even know how to write) javascript in order to modify a Synchronet BBS. That was my point, that apparantly you didn't get out of my message. ;(
