2021-09-30 at 9:47 PM UTCThe vast majority of Totse members (tens of thousands) didn't want Totse to go to the WWW. But Jeff was insistent.

what the fuck are you talking about. If you had an ISDN line or a T1 or 3 line I could see that being true. but a dialup is a dialup. the telnet is an ap on the computer. you use it to dialinto the BBS.
I couldn't afford a ISDN or T1 line like apparently Jeff had along with his 7 node copper line. This is why he was doing computer to computer line of transportation of files. from persons board to the next to the next to avoid the toll cost. -

thats the whole point of the 6-7 hour of the documentary on BBS which guys from Nirvana to cDc and other well known boards across the country were talking about. they didn't know about html coming in and making the dialup antiquated technology. it ruined the enjoyment of nerds speaking to one another.
in the early years of Cable internet people were fighting neighbors because someone was hogging bandwith. bandwith used to be expensive and suddenly became a running tap. like having a slow filling well of water going to a pipeline from public water. people used to guard over the amount of water being wasted and suddenly there is this virtual unlimited source of water. same with bandwith.
they knew the internet was a great invention but would also take away that specialness of social communication between boarders. it also was a gateway to losing our freedoms. laws being changed because of "Trolling" went from playful to getting people to suicide or being murdered. and just as a way for the big brother to use each other to brother for them. 1984 fear to that of a Brave New World where using social engineering in campaign ads to make everyone turn into a snitch and a karen and the village is the parent over singular parenting skills.
9/11 was no doubt initiated with the help of the internet. as stated. cDc and totse.com and the manifesto that was picked up in June and was being emailed around to congress. Alex Jones FBI insider friend no doubt was talking about totse or cDc thread on an attack to come.
this allowed the popularity vote of President Bush decline to go through the roof after he said "Well get those who knocked these walls down" and all the mind fucking that followed with the NSA (which was doing this shit prior.. but now did it legally)
eCommerce was the only win from the internet. everything else came with problems (well hacking ecommerce is a big thing) -

TelNet doesn't use the same transmission pathway as a phone does on the phone lines, therefore it wasn't metered. You could Telnet into any BBS in the world at no cost. Took them awhile, but they caught on and started billing as long distance, but that was only well into the '00s. The '80s and '90s, no long distance charges. We used a program called HyperTerminal. You could also set up a "shotgun", with two identical US Robotics 33.6 modems for extra speed, if you had the motherboard slots to accommodate. -

As soon as we found out the WWW was coming, people really started bitching. It was almost like a civil war going on inside the Totse community. The vast majority just wanted things to remain as they were. We believed that switching to the WWW would allow any kidiot with a mouse and keyboard to come in and start shitting up our world. The Suburbs were under the threat of invasion of the 12-year-olds. By remaining on the NET, the Temple would have survived past Zoklet, but the lesser gods would have their way.
