The possibilities are extending for FujiNet… iOS is coming, app is developing! #bbsing #fujinet #atari

@ballistikcoffee This is absolutely absurd What can we do to help?

Update: Sadly, after my appeal last night, #YouTube has decided that my entire channel, #BallistikCoffeeBoy, will be deleted, after 6 amazing years. I'm unsure why, no specific reasons were given outside of "spam"... I feel some haters of my channel out there got me taken down, at this point. You know... my channel got me thru my Dad's death, Covid & became a beautiful place full of like-minded friends, I'll never forget the great love & support I've been witness to. I will be stepping away for now. Maybe I'll return one day in a different venue. The fact that they deleted all 1.8k videos is extremely upsetting. I've had the time of my life doing this & I owe it all to my viewers and supporters. A HUGE thank you to everyone. I'm sorry if anything I did caused this, but as of right now I don't know what that was. It's been a pleasure & I miss you all. Onto other 'hobbies' now, I guess. They've given me no choice. I will keep my podcasts going, both Atari Newsline & The Atari VCS Podcast, so there's that. You can find me on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Pocket Casts & on the social medias, as well as my BCB website, which has been going since 1995 and ain't going nowhere. Adios to BCB on YT, at least for now! 'Be a good person, get your java & go play some Atari!' xx -BCB, signing off.

@Raider_Z1000 Yes!

@atari_bbs Can you play trade wars?
