If we type a bunch of stories about dial up and old time online communities someone will be along to call us boomers shortly. Don't pay attention to them, just get in the left lane and slow down. When they flash their lights and blow the horn it means they like us.Man, I got booted like crazy back then.

I remember you could go into a private chat, it was called the "loft" with a female and hope to god it wasn't another dude.AOL chat rooms and instant messenger are where I developed my trolling skills.
Yep. I remember the Commodore 64 used QLink.QLink, GEnie, Delphi, or the single phone line BBS. Can't forget FIDOnet and USEnet.
