I agree and don't understand it either.  Even more so when the BBS is  connected to FTN message nets.  Quite an aggravating thing, for me.
I have a couple of those over here in Metronet ... drives me nuts, I end up  delisting them and some how 2 years later they start polling again
and finally logon and ask why there is no mail.   Well, because you quit polling for mail  2 years ago, don't think I'm gonna hold it for more
than 3 weeks for you at  most.
This I can relate to :)
