The origins of the word Sysop (or SysOp) predate BBSes, but definitely fell out of favor for those "other" uses (i.e. mainframe operators) during the BBS era.

I have worked at a business with a mainframe for 25+ years now. The only
person I ever remember being called a sysop was the guy who used to run the
dial-up bbs that was taken down about the time I started working there.

They announced that he was the former sysop at his retirement. IIRC, I
think the BBS ran Opus or something like it.

But I have heard that is where the term comes from. ;)

Do you pronounce it size-op or siss-op? That's been heated like the .gif controversy.

The admin/power level login in OS/400 was called QSYSOPR, I recall
people talking about "logging in as sysop", but not referring to someone
as "sysop".

Next question? Siss-op or SISE-op?

While there's a lot the current incarnation of BBSes has to offer, the
dial-up era was pretty nice, for what you mention. We had a local
othernet called NIRVANAnet, and we'd arrange get-togethers at least
quarterly. You'd get to meet the people you were arguing with
face-to-face, hang out and drink/eat with people you liked, share bits
about your real life with others, and occasionally meet and date someone
you'd met through the BBS.

There were a lot more local topics discussed and more local messages,
which gave BBSes an individual personality some lack now. In 1991,
during Desert Storm, BBSes were an interesting uncensored view of the
protests in San Francisco.

I don't miss busy signals, though. Now, you telnet into a specific BBS
and expect to get in. Back then, you'd set up a handful of BBSes into a
dialing queue and connect to whichever answered first after dozens or
hundreds of busy signals. Anyone with a roommate learned the Hayes
command to turn the speaker off!

I've never heard "size-op", but I've heard people pronounce it either "sye-sop" or "siss-op".

Years ago, I watched "BBS: The Documentary" by Jason Scott, and there was a person in there who said he preferred "sye-sop" because he thought "siss-op" sounded too close to "sissy op".

When I first saw the word "sysop", my first thought was "sye-sop". I didn't know at the time that the "sys" was short for "system". But I was 12 years old at the time.. :)

I had just got my own computer at the time, along with a modem which I had used to start calling local BBSes.. I was curious about it, and I did start running a BBS a couple years later.

No.. The first one would have a Z sound, and the 2nd one would have an S sound. I don't know how you'd get the same sound from both.
