5.4 Using and understanding the Avalon bulletin board.

The Avalon bulletin board is a method for all Avalonians to maintain contact with each other. It should be used for notices and messages relating to world-wide issues and as a convenient method for Cities, Guilds and Orders to speak to the assembled masses. Type BB to enter the bulletin board or BBSTATUS within Avalon to discover whether there are any new messages. You may also use READBB to apprise yourself of the contents whilst still in the land. HELP once inside the bulletin board will give you information.

There are a great number of selective-entry bulletin board sections in addition to those mentioned above, including separate boards for members of government, guildmasters, elders over a century (in Avalon years), comments about Avalon, treaties between cities and guilds, etc. You will know you have access to a selective-entry section when it appears in your BBSTATUS list.
