About CiX
What is CiX?
CiX is yet another BBS in England, but maybe one of the most popular. With thousands of Conferences from fishing to motor racing to the internet, and or coarse Transport Tycoon. Spit into many sections, all topics of conferences are there for the viewing, unless they are closed, when you have to apply to join them. Anyone with a Credit Card can join CiX, look down the page.
If you are wondering why I am writing CiX without a capital "i", it is because their recent logo is like this, but with the "i" uncapitalised and in a red strip of paint. The way of writing CiX is now a standard custom within the BBS.
To get into CiX
To get into Cix you need to have a modem, of which you probably have to be on the internet, and a major credit card. In a Windows program like Terminal or a simular program (eg. COMIT) dial . When it asks you your name, type new and follow the instructions from there.
If you want to use your internet connection to get to cix, use Telnet to get to it, the address is and follow the same instructions as above.
Once you have joined, you should recieve a handbook and a preview version of Ameol for Windows or Windows 95 (32-bit), shortly after. If you use Windows or Win 95 it would be a good idea to purchase a copy of Ameol, as it is a brilliant offline reader.
