Sunny Beach

Sunny Beach

Sun of beach (SOB) is an electronic bulletin board platform in Taiwan from 1990s to 2000s. It was founded on March 6, 1996. The founder of the station is a member of room 420, the seventh dormitory of National Taiwan University, including Luo Ziyi, Dai Zhiyang and Chen Hongwei from the Department of electrical engineering, the Department of asset management and the Department of mechanical engineering of National Taiwan University.

Create a station

The purpose of the website is to exchange information with student associations and research computer intelligence. Since the dormitory network of Taiwan University was opened in February 1996, the webmaster group was set up to enable ordinary students to freely set up their favorite Kanban and discussion groups. The original equipment was very simple, using ASUS tp4xe motherboard, a SCSI hard disk and 256MB ram. When using FreeBSD workstation, the original code was transferred from Fengqiao post station of Qingda University. Because NTU (except BBS station of the University) had no experience in setting up a station, all the settings and program modifications had to be groped by the stationmaster group. Many difficulties occurred in the process of setting up a station. At that time, a stationmaster casually said, "son of Bitch. "I didn't expect that the website was successful. Later, Luo Ziyi proposed that the homophonic" sun of beach "should be taken as" sunshine beach ", or sob for short. This is the origin of the name of the website. Sunshine beach is also the first BBS station founded by students at NTU.

Community

Kanban's classification was initially based on the associations and interests of webmasters. The first association version was the chorus version of NTU, and the first alumni version was the association version of NTU. The publicity began on Wednesday, March 6, so this day was designated as "sunshine beach" birthday. As a result, sunshine beach has sprung up rapidly from the network industry of NTU. In a short period of one year, the sunshine beach BBS station has reached 7700 users from the highest record of five people going to the station at the same time. The reason is that users can introduce each other and set up their own community kanban. Later, many ethnic groups gradually emerged, such as a large number of animation, comic related discussion boards, and discussion boards of alumni associations.

BBS system

BBS system is the Fengqiao post station system modified from Qingda. In addition to the original functions, it also has some breakthrough convenience functions. Later, it has its own style, which is called sobvision. The purpose is to make the code public, so there are still some backward programming in the BBS program discussion group in Taiwan. The famous BBS stations, such as "bad cattle ranch" or "kicking industry square", are derived from sobvision. The biggest feature of sunshine beach is the establishment of the first set of BBS inter station instant messaging system (also known as water polo) standard. Users can directly receive information from other users and press the hot key (Ctrl + R) to respond immediately without returning to the user list screen. They can browse articles and response messages at the same time on the BBS of the terminal interface Information and other multitasking operations, overturn the traditional restrictions that chatting on BBS must enter the chat window. In order to reward published articles, sunshine beach launched a new function in 1998, similar to the "shell" system of the financial market. Users can earn shells of different values by publishing articles. When the number of shells reaches a certain level, they can enter the tool options to buy some special functions, such as invisibility or unlimited mailbox, and then imitate the stock market to push However, due to the flaws in the system design, some users found out the loopholes to earn a lot of shells, which led to the collapse of the financial mechanism. After 2000, "Nautilus" replaced "shell" However, due to the accumulation of long-term operation, the number of fixed users of sunshine beach has exceeded 100000, so the impact is limited.

The combination of stopping and kicking

After 2001, because the original webmaster group graduated from NTU, the managers changed hands several times, and they were a little unfamiliar with the system modification, so there were some bugs in the basic functions, causing inconvenience to users. On October 6, 2003, due to the failure of hard disk for unknown reasons, the user list was lost, and sunshine beach stopped the station without warning. Then, it tried to find a backup and failed to resume the station, which led to the failure of resuming the station. On October 9, 2004, it announced the merger with criticaI Industrial Park. The remaining backup articles and highlights have been remitted to the kick kick Industrial Park.

Set up again

In July 2005, the station management of the old Sunny Beach attempted to rebuild the beach, but the old information is almost gone. The popularity is not high, the number of people online is few, and the grand occasion is not as good as the old beach in the past.
