This used to be the BBS of a friend of mine. It was running on SMBX for which he had acquired the source code from the original author ("Snake" no longer supplied any updates for it).
Since it was written in GFA Basic and the stupid compiler had issues with the size, I helped by porting over some of the routines to C and put them in a library. That worked quite well and left space for new features. And I learned how to program in C along the way :) Good times.
Sadly Chis passed away at the end of 2017, much too young.

@ArKay, thanks for the info!
Oops, typed his name wrong :) It was Chris(topher), not "Chis".
