This BBS carried Amiga releases and/or was part of the Amiga scene. Please note that it does not automatically mean that the BBS ran on an Amiga.

A BBS that was not accessible for the majority of scene members. Access was a privilege for the "elites" of a particular sub-scene. Often (but not always!), such BBSs carried pirated software, they were protected by a NUP (new user password), their numbers were not advertised, and their ads carried slogans along the lines of "No Lamers!" or "Elite Only".
