i wasn't online until the end of 1997; i apparently missed out on a lot.

even by then, things were beginning to tighten up on the web. more stuff was going behind paywalls. more sites were implementing basic security protocols, so you could no longer use simple telnet tricks to read all their files. and so on.

i got you feeling nostalgic, eh? well those were nostalgic times. yeah, i used all that shit. ftps, irc, icq, newsgroups. i was using all kinds of kiddie scripts--mass mailers, trojans, punters, TOSers, warez.

i used IRC well into the 2000s because it was still used in filesharing and online gaming. you had to go on IRC to find counter-strike scrimmages or consistently find the latest movies. those days were the wild fucking west. i used to sell music/video CDs to people at school for a quick buck. that was back when computers were a private club.

i was active on a couple BBSes. one of them my friend ran. he made money by charging for access to the "adult" file sharing section, which had topless photos of cindy crawford that took 10 minutes to load.

my mom was a guide so we got free AOL internet when everyone else was still paying $3.50 an hour or whatever for it. thats partially why my sorceress was level 78.
