High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The WWIV Bulletin Board System was among the most popular dialup computer bulletin board software during the late 1980s through the mid-1990s. The modifiable source code allowed a sysop to customize the main BBS program for their particular needs and aesthetics. WWIV also allowed tens of thousands of BBSes to link together, forming a worldwide proprietary networking system, the WWIVnet, much like FidoNet but with fewer problems related to forum management.WWIV started out in early 1984 as a single BBS in Los Angeles, CA, run by Wayne Bell, who wrote the original 1.0 version in BASIC. Bell wrote WWIV as a high school programing project, and shared the software with 25 of his friends, many of whom had become disgusted with FidoNet and some of the FIDOnet sysops in their geographical region. This naturally attracted the interest of various other potential SysOps across the country, who obtained copies of the source to modify and run for their own boards.
