2015-09-05 at 5:01 PM UTC in Poll Winner of Darth Beaver Fan Club Contest.
He just thinks he's being cute by using a done-to-death double-whammy which has already been done a million times before he dragged his sorry, lame ass in here. Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain.
Nice entry but the contest is over. -
2015-09-05 at 4:44 PM UTC in Poll Winner of Darth Beaver Fan Club Contest.Ok boys and squirrels it's time for you to choose the winner of the title: President of the Darth Beaver Fan Club. Please be fair and create plenty of alts so SpectraL has a fighting chance. Also remember that you should only judge based on the Insults in the following thread; http://niggasin.space/forum/half-baked/19644-darth-beaver-fan-club-contest or not. So who's it gonna be, SpectraL or Crazy Mike?

What year were you born in, Darkster? C'mon, now.
It's common knowledge that I am 53, do the math. O
BTW Why are you ignoring the facts kid?

I don't care to know. If I wished to know, I could easily know, but I don't care. I've never cared who anyone is. It's what people post and say that matters; I couldn't care less what handle they use or who they are, although I can still use it for ammunition towards the cowards who need to hide behind them. Everything else is just kids games. You are not your username.

C'mon now. You do know that radio waves can be captured from practically anywhere on the planet, don't you?
Ignoring the facts again Specky my boy? Why have you chosen to start another debate, sparked by one of your half thought out claims of past brilliance designed to impress kids on the internutz, before you have admitted defeat in the dial BBS/Email noose you've so firmly affixed to your own scrawny, wrinkled, toothless neck?
Do the facts in post #11 of this thread scare you? -
2015-09-05 at 3:48 PM UTC in fuck space jamI'm sitting here embarrassed for you Will. Everyone already knows that's not the real DS. But only a few of us know who's alt the account really is. Amusingly you are not counted amongst those few.

6 seconds is probably a good start, in my personal OPINION. It's easy to think not when you've never been confronted with a vehicle slamming their brakes in front of you, especially on the highway, but clearly some time is needed to react and most of the time nobody is expecting it to happen (understandably so, because it rarely happens). Personally when I'm driving behind someone on the interstate and I'm within 4-5 seconds separation time (which is as close as I'll get), I'm almost always maintaining my focus on getting ready to hit my brakes as fast as possible. I basically assume that everyone else on the road is a fucking idiot and something bad is going to happen at any time, and I've seen enough LL videos to justify it, though most of 'em are from Russia.
Yup, defensive driving is what it's all about. -

I was there in the thick of it all, not just the Screaming Electron, but many other BBS and newsgroup communities. Nobody used e-mail. It was non-existent, in that sense. Oh, I'm sure there were a few who used something similar; it was a very diverse age, but nothing like what we're looking at today. You weren't there, so you would have no real clue what really happened or the way it really was. You're a fucking poser, dude, so just start shutting up before you embarrass yourself even further.
You are still just relating a personal experience. The data shows that your experience was not fact. Hell Fido was the largest dial BBS network ever and here are 12 excerpts from it's history in regard to email.FidoNet: Technology, Use, Tools, and History

FidoNet is a trademark of Tom Jennings.
Abstract
FidoNet is a point-to-point and store-and-forward email WAN which uses
modems on the direct-dial telephone network. It was developed in 1984, and
has over 20,000 public nodes worldwide.The public FidoNet consists of over 20,000 nodes which move email and enews
over the public telephone network using a unique protocol and data format.The addressing scheme may be extended to accommodate points which are power
users who reduce their connect time by using private (i.e. unlisted) nodes
to exchange email and enews with public nodes.As all modem phone numbers are published in the nodelist, point-to-point
transfers are always possible. But, as store-and-forward capabilities are
specified in the basic standards, email tends to be routed through a
world-wide hierarchic topology and enews via a world-wide ad hoc, but
generally geographically hierarchic, acyclic graph.As all modem phone numbers are published in the nodelist, point-to-point
transfers are always possible. But, as store-and-forward capabilities are
specified in the basic standards, email tends to be routed through a
world-wide hierarchic topology and enews via a world-wide ad hoc, but
generally geographically hierarchic, acyclic graph.Topology
FidoNet's addressing hierarchy - zone, net, node, point - approximates the
route which email follows.Power users run points which may connect to only their respective host nodes
to receive and deliver their email and enews. As they are not in the public
nodelist, points are not considered to be official nodes in the network, and
thus are not subject to constraints of technology, national mail hour, etc.Within a local network (i.e. city), nodes usually exchange email directly
with each other. For example, 1:105/6 exchanges mail directly with all
other nodes in 1:105/*. In those cities where phone tariff zones divide the
city, local hubs are used to concentrate intra-city traffic to reduce costs.Each of the six zones (continents) has a unique host which provides
inter-zone email routing. These "zonegates" have alias addresses of the form
orig-zone:orig-zone/dest-zone. For example, the gate from North America
(zone 1) to Oceania (zone 3) has an addressing alias of the form 1:1/3.
Hence, a node in North America may save the cost of an inter-continental
call to Australia by sending the message to 1:1/3, which will in turn send
it to 3:3/1, which will see that it is delivered within Australia.The UFGATE package, which allows an MS-DOS-based FidoNet node to simulate a
uucp host, gates both email and enews. This package made gating fairly
popular by 1987. More recently, other DOS packages have provided similar
features. RFmail, a complete FidoNet implementation which runs on UNIX SysV
and Xenix, includes gateware to transform between FidoNet message format and
that of the uucp/Internet.Around the world, BBSs with FidoNet capability provide the most publicly
accessible and lowest-cost email and enews service today. While most BBSs
are only usable by a single dial-up caller at a time, others run multi-line
systems ranging from two to 20 lines. Public access requirements vary from
formal user validation and possibly a small fee to completely open
facilities allowing full use by the first-time caller.History
In 1984, Tom Jennings wished to move messages from his MS-DOS-based Fido BBS
to that of a friend, John Madil. As Jennings was the author of the Fido
BBS, he was able to quickly modify it to extract messages from a specially-
designated local message base and queue them for sending to the remote BBS.
As US telephone rates are much lower in the middle of the night, he wrote a
separate external program to run this email transfer for one designated hour
to exchange mail with the other node.
This soon grew to more nodes, reaching 200 by early in 1985. The nodelist,
a list of all known active nodes in the public FidoNet, was developed as a
distributed external file and was initially maintained by Jennings. The
reserved mail transfer hour became enshrined as "national mail hour," and is
preserved today despite current technology being capable of intermixing mail transfer and BBS access.FTS-0001 describes the original message data formats, session protocols, and
link layer protocols for FidoNet as it was originally developed by Tom
Jennings. The ability for a node to obey this standard is mandatory if it
wishes to be listed within the public FidoNet, although the vast majority of
connections now use the far more efficient FTS-0006 suite. Data transfer
uses xmodem and a variant called TLink, 128 byte block ACK/NAK protocols,
neither of which is streaming, bidirectional, or windowing, and which
discriminate between email and file transfer at the session and data
transfer level. Mid-file restart recovery is also absent.
So you see Spectard while you were busy breathing through your mouth trying to comprehend the 4 page instruction set which were included in the crystal radio kit your mummy bought that one year for Xmas, some of us were sitting in front of systems emailing one another.

Use one account, Darkie. There's really no need for you to hide behind others.
Nothing anyone says, does, or proves ever changes your opinion. Which is why you're so ignorant on most subjects. So if you want to believe I'm posting with that account I'm fine with that. Because you see I know the truth of which users alt it actually is Spectard. -

Lol 3-6 seconds can eat my ass, that will never be safe at all. But thanks for the chart, it didn't clear much up besides that the government is a bunch of buffoons.
So in other words you are just another opinionated buffoon like SpectraL who spouts hid opinions as fact regardless of the science and or recorded history.
Thanks for sharing. -

Just because something is available doesn't mean it is used. E-mail wasn't used until well into the '90's. So you can stamp your little flat feet all day and none of that will change the facts or the history of it.
Just because you weren't using it doesn't mean it wasn't being used. I love it when your wrong though it gives everyone a chance to see your ignorance shine.
But please continue to prattle on about your misguided opinion and be sure not to provide any documentation for it. -
2015-09-05 at 9:31 AM UTC in I fuck so much my left hip is dislocated and constantly hurtingYou dont actually know what "Edgy" means do you? Because it appears to me you heard the word and started using it without caring if its in the right context.

2015-09-05 at 9:25 AM UTC in I thought i could trust you guysAlso one post doesnt ruin a thread. Its one post that gets a reply which is in turn replied to which starts the downslope tumble of potentially good thread to a shitty thread.
But since u are the OP this thread was ruined from the start.
Stay fresh slampigglet. -
