I've never been a sysop myself so I speak purely from a user's standpoint (as well as that of somebody who's experimented with this type of software), yet I find it somewhat difficult to believe there's not a single BBS server package out there that offers more flexibility on this respect. Either way, I'd rather not register at all than go through more of this nonsense, which i understand used to serve a legitimate purpose back in the day, but it no longer does.

Personally I'd rather see more time going into ironing out the problems that will inevitably arise in the process of getting a BBS up and running than have it go to waste setting up this useless thing.

If it's an Amiga-oriented BBS, I'd say it should look and feel Amiga. There's quite a few generic, ANSI-friendly BBS' out there, but the authentic Amiga ones are pretty rare and seldom ever live long enough to build up a user base.

If no one but you cares about these files, a private ftp would probably suit you better.

and then i cut assess of 90% Amiga termina sw to log in my BBS

and what i do not like to do is buld some PC Synchronet BBS
there is no Amiga in there at all
I prefer it over plain text but not over a proper VPN because it doesn't allow for anonymous connections. Get behind a TOR router (either with a hardware solution or by interfacing your Amiga with a modern computer) and conduct business as usual. I access regular telnet BBS' like this without any trouble; no need for source codes or overpowered Amigas.
