One dialed into Totse using a standard phone line and a modem. No long distance charges applied, no matter where in the world you were dialing in from. The software used was HyperTerminal, which was TelNet-based. Once connected to the BBS node, one was presented with a full screen of colorful ASCII text, which described the site and contents, and also provided information about the BBS itself and its mission statement. Navigation to the next screen was accomplished with a combination of the LEFT/RIGHT arrow keys, the TAB key, the ESC key, and the Enter key, also the F1, F2, F3, F4 and F5 keys. The second screen in contained a flashing prompt at the bottom the screen, which allowed you to either choose a handle of your choice, or remain as anonymous, the default. The following screen contained a listing of the .NFOs contained therein, a kind of index, which one could open as plaintext and peruse. Once a topic of interest was discovered, the user would then use the navigation keys to page over to the appropriate section, whereupon all the text files for that particular item of interest resided. One could then highlight the item requested and press Enter and load the file for viewing, closing out back to the file list with the ESC key. Totse was unique, in the way that it had no "ratio", which means you didn't have to upload to get enough credits to download; it was a free information command center for the entire planet. No search engines. No browsers. No Internet at all yet.
Now, how could I know all this if I wasn't actually there? Try and Google this kind of information, you won't find it anywhere. All my peers of those days long ago are either dead or in a nursing home. I am one of the few survivors of that era. Once upon a time, we peppered the horizon like the buffalo. Today, we are like the last-surviving remnants of a great nuclear holocaust, roaming the barren lands in search of sustenance. -

That would be like calling a baloney sandwich real and then putting fake baloney on it and still calling it a real baloney sandwich. Ain't gonna fly! You could go as far as calling it a fake baloney sandwich, or a "simulated" baloney sandwich, or an artificially-flavored baloney sandwich, but that's all I'll give you. Enter's accusation is like a fake baloney sandwich. -

Do I really have to answer that question to get your support and backing?? Oh, OK. It's not that it's important, It's just that I happened to comment that I was on Totse well before 2006, and since I wouldn't tell ENTER what username I was using, he concocted this plan to attempt to tarnish my long-standing reputation. He would have you think I'm some n00b who just fell off the turnip truck this morning. -

Well, if it was motor or paddle-operated, it wouldn't be sailboat anymore, now would it? I don't think you've really thought this through.
Son: Look, Dad! A sailboat!
Father: Nah, kid. It ain't got no sail on'it.
Son: Does it really need a sail to be a sailboat, father?
Father: You're darn tootin' it does. Did your mother drop you on your head when you were a toddler or somthin'?
Son: No, father... I just thought... since...
Father: There's your problem right there, youngin'. You thought. -

2018-03-08 at 5:29 PM UTC in -SpectraL is a phony: definitive proof. Link him to this thread whenever he spouts his shit.This thread really is kind of ridiculous, Enter. There's no lie or bullshit or air involved. There's not even any proof I was not on Totse from 1989 all the way through to its closure. You keep saying I lied, but where's the proof for this accusation? I said the switchover to the web-version of Totse happened in 2001, and it was actually 2000, that's all; that doesn't mean I wasn't on Totse from 1989 until it closed, it just means I was off by a year. So this GOTCHA thing really has no substance, you know? It's like a baloney sandwich with no actual baloney on it. It's like a sailboat with no sail. A fish with no fins. Can't you do better than this?
