my 2 cents.. (online illusions bbs representin') (Score 1)

Man.. those were the days.. I started "modeming" (hah, havent used that term in awhile) when i was 8 (1989).. i remember fighting for a 2400 bps connection with other users of a local chat system.. if you were at 2400, you thought you were blazing.. then i remember getting my 14.4 and thinking man! this 100k file only takes 10 minutes! (or whatever it was..) Eventually, i like everyone else it seemed, started running a bulletin board.. we grew from 1 line to 2, to 4 , to 8, and so on up to 32 nodes.. that was pretty damn big for our area (melbourne, fl).. we had full internet access, and all that.. but it still wasnt the same.. after awhile we decided to move on with our lives and leave it behind. I wanted to try to purchase our domain name back (lusions.com), but its owned by some strange internet "pay to surf" company.. strange, didnt think the "word" lusions was a hot commondity.. o-well, it was fun while it lasted, and im sure something will come alone to bring back that feeling (or whatever it was) that bbs's carried. I still have my autographed copy of the Lord - Tournament poster (seth able was the shit) shout outs to any of our users in the strange possibility that someone reads this alex.
