It looks like your message did get sent.. But I'm not sure exactly what you're asking - Is this about one of my Synchronet mods? And what is "oages"?

Venturing a guess, "pages" was the intended word here.

What UI is "this UI"? I don't know what you're referring to.

Is this your first time using a BBS? A lot of it is a matter of just pressing the keys on your keyboard that correspond with the menu commands to do different things. A Synchronet BBS generally supports single-key commands as well as commands starting with a slash (/), and some Ctrl key combinations. It looks like you're getting the hang of that already, since you're posting messages.

Also, it looks like you're using SlyEdit to write messages? It's generally a good idea to quote the part of the message you're replying to so that it's easier for people to follow the conversation.. With SlyEdit, you can press Ctrl-Q (or type /q on a blank line and press enter) to open the quote window, press enter to select the lines you want to quote (and you can use the up & down arrow keys to scroll through the lines to quote), and then Ctrl-Q again (or ESC) to close the quote window. And it's generally good to leave a blank line between the quoted lines and your new message.

Also, some things can show a help screen of some kind. For instance, in SlyEdit, you can press ESC to bring up a menu (usually it takes a moment after pressing ESC) and select the help option, or as a shortcut, you can press Ctrl-L to show a list of the command keys in SlyEdit.

BBSes are better on a laptop or desktop using a comm program like syncterm or netrunner.

... Your just jealous cause the voices are only talking to me.

oh i realise that a laptop is far better than a iphone lol, its not that i dont have a laptop its just im at one end of a country n my laptops are literally at lands end, i gotta wait a couple weeks to get them sent up to not that it matters but alongside my consoles and other effects ,,, but yeah iphone huh i get it ill struggle with default settings and obviously the ease of use, tho given my nature if i dont out an effort in now ill probably itll be harder when i do have my effects delievered so i figured laptop or not ill try my best ill put an effort in, so im looking to sync my syncronet up like with my email but im under the impression emails on the usual ibternet isnt the same context as emails on bbbs, and im abit confused how to do it as im trying to register on other bbs platform but hitting a wall with mybemail doesnt exist apparently

Hey Night_Spider, if you are stuck "calling" a BBS with an iphone or an ipad, check out the MuffinTerm app. It is a great ANSI capable terminal for iOS. Be sure to set your user config on each BBS to ANSI for best results. FYI, ANSI is the "graphics" standard that most BBS's support.

Hope this helps,

to late oh yeah was gonna ask if your signature was a bbs or like ya email on here or what?

The BBS you see there is my BBS (which is where I'm posting from). And that's not a signature, that's the origin line. Dove-Net is networked, accessed by a lot of different BBSes, so the origin line is useful so people know which BBS it came from.

As I said in a previous message, it's good to quote the part of the message you're replying to so that it's easier to follow the conversation.

If someone replies to me without quoting, sometimes it feels like the message is out of left field, and I'm less likely to reply to it if I can't follow the conversation.

I'm not Night_Spider, but for me, a big factor that I think makes BBSing on a smartphone difficult is the lack of a physical keyboard. I type a lot better on a physical keyboard. Also, hotkeys using Ctrl & things like that are a lot easier on a physical keyboard too.
