I still have the e-mail from our ISP explaining that they have to throttle our accounts to avoid disrupting their network.

ISPs would shut down our accounts within days after launching a site becasue of the bandwidth used. So we would move around.
those were the days LOL

i remember one of the biggest problems for the amateur girls in the early days was bandwidth ... it stopped a lot of sites from getting off the ground which today would probably thrive.

the first amateur girl site I remember was Casey Cox, however there were a lot of sites around at that time.
