A Look At Bulletin Board Systems. This is pretty much what the internet was in 1992. Anyone know what a BBS was?

aww poo i used those constantly.. there were games (doors) like legend of the red dragon and barren realms elite!! LORD was kinda like WOW in text format. fun as hell. if you had a 14.4 you were fast. if you had a 28.8 you were flying. and you'd get massive long distance phone bills if you didn`t go to a local bbs. I don`t think any dial ups exist anymore. but theres plenty of telenet (or telnet?) ones that look and act just like the ones from the days of yore.. find one off google n copy it to your address bar.

"It seems crazy that this was only 30 years ago."

1992 was 17 years ago.

To think they had such noble intentions, who at that time could have foreseen the intercrapz being used for petty arguments and dick jokes?
