i didn't know how to really APPLY .js to my bbs and there weren't many 
examples back then in the beginning. furthermore, it seemed like more
work than baja for bbs related functions.  i lost enthusiasm for it. i just 
use .js for utility type things on my bbs, if even that.

despite what people say, you do not have to be a programmer to run 
synchronet.
you dont need to know javascript or anything complicated to run a good bbs.
the best thing is creativity and enthusiasm.

you can get an i5 from ebay for 40 bucks free shipping.
