yet another reason of why lannytard shouldnt be an admin of a 'free speech' forum.
he doesnt have the maturity or prowess.

Originally posted by Jiggaboo_Johnson Yeah I was on BBS's, then CompuServe and AOL…I remember when Compuserve introduced a "gateway" to the internet" which you then had to buy/pay for separately from your CompuServe bill.
Compuserve had chat rooms and I even had a couple of rendezvous with CompuServe girls…and yes…you can imagine what girls using compuserve looked like back in them days…SMH
ETA: My first AOL account was created with a stolen credit card number…I never paid a penny for it…I foolishly shared the login info with a guy who promised to fill my inbox up with WAREZ everyday…which he did for about a week..then the motherfinger changed the password and that was that.
woopdee. my first 'online' experience was using a modem the size of a toaster over to talk to a literal network of other computers via the telephone line. that was my first experience with site admins that are real-life little bitches taking their bitch mentality to whatever site theyre hosting.
i had aol, compu-serve, and prodigy...same screen name: infinityshock. 'cept it was 'x8shock' because aol only let you have 8 characters and the first one had to be a letter -

mine was before that...there wasnt even any actual networks. the 'internet' was one computer directly talking to one or more other computers. any software exchanges was done via snail-mail using cassette tapes.
i seem to recall using prodigy/compu-serve/aol in 1984
also, the connection was via phone lines that sucked up long-distance toll rates. that was always popular when the phone bill came in.
the good old days... -

Just because YOU used computers back then doesn't mean it was widespread. Everyone made fun of you back then and bullied you for being a NEEEEERD which is why you're such a bitter contrarian
not true. i know many, many 'computer nerds' who made quite a chunk of change when parents paid them to teach their kids how to use computers and BASIC programming. -
