==Influences and reception== Due to its popularity, WWIV influenced later BBS programs. [[Virtual Advanced|VBBS]], written by Roland DeGraaf in 1990 using [[QuickBASIC]], contained a WWIV-type interface and networking that was compatible with WWIVnet. Early versions of VBBS listed features such as "WWIV Compatible" and "Can be run as a door from WWIV BBS." [[Telegard]] and [[Renegade (BBS)|Renegade]] BBS packages were heavily based on an older version of WWIV source code. WWIV was ported to the [[Apple Macintosh]] by Terry Teague and later a WWIV clone for the Macintosh named [[Hermes (BBS)|Hermes]] was written by Frank Price.
