2018-09-12 at 1:32 PM UTCTotse: "Takeikin" 2006-08-04
"Thank you for registering on totse.com community (/bin/bbs/Ultimate.cgi)."
only a few dozen posts, I just lurked and read the p|-|1L3zzz
then straight away to zoklet as "Jack" (there was briefly false hope that I was jackketch)
Got drunk and blacked out on bltc tinychat, bought syncans and 4FA, got ID Chief's first run of free samples, and Greyfox sent me a card and a newspaper clipping. According to PMs, Stendhal Syndrome sent me a "purple bullseye" tie-dye shirt, but I don't remember that at all. The usual. I posted a little bit more on Zoklet but still no big deal.
Also: notse, TDD, I think another 3 letter one I can't remember, rorta, no.surgen.org(nightops.net), intos, rdfrn, and idk what else -

2018-09-12 at 7:20 PM UTCit closed? I just logged in out of curiosity. It doesn't look closed. I guess I missed something.
I joined but ended up using fb. I use zocalo once in while.
I still have the same screen name. -

2018-09-13 at 2:11 AM UTCI seem to recall either jackketch or his wife were crippled and he was quite easy to get angry. He would go on about how he used to be a heroin addict too. He was also British and likely dead now

Originally posted by -SpectraL Actually, the TelNet BBS didn't have a password. You simply dialed in using the phone number and your HyperTerminal client and you were on the Welcome screen. From there you could enter a handle (or not) and proceed to the BBS forthwith. No password required. No ratio required either, as most BBS did require to download anything.
I refuse to go over and over again with this.
whatever you say. The first Username I used on totse.com was the one I used on &TOTSE -

Ok, well, I never said you couldn't have a username on the pre-web version of Totse. I said there was no password asked for or required to get on, and that's true, regardless of what o_RLY says. -

You couldn't use it at the same time as someone else. If you did, you would get the error message "that handle is already in use, please choose another". But there was no memberlist. It's just that server saw what usernames were already in use in real time. -

Maybe there is truth to this. It was fucking 20 years ago
Maybe people just honored the name.
but in the threads, your username would show up if you posted a file.
most people used the real time chatter. which was boggy at times with a dialup.

Originally posted by Cooking with Zyklon B I must've created my account on totse sometime 'round mid-2004.
I had a nonfiction book report in HS where unfortunately I seemed to have picked a fictional book mislabeled or rather misrepresented as nonfiction out of the school library. That book definitely was a big part of inspiration for this handle.
The book title was Treblinka for those who are curious.
Well fuck, there's a name I haven't seen in a while. You got one of them memorable usernames, I'm kinda jelly. No one remembers me because of my username, mostly just for pretending to be a girl.
