My MajorBBS based BBS was on Fidonet from 1993-1994 before I switched over to being a dialup ISP. The guy who co-ran the BBS with me leaked our serial number after we had a falling out. Was “fun” trying to get support from Galacticomm after that, despite having the original manuals with the serial number printed on it as proof I really owned it.

Nope, that’s another one that started showing up online a few years later.
