How many people here were BBS users and remember Trade Wars 2002 and other doors? - GoFuckYourself.com

NoCarrier · 06-25-2005, 05:35 PM

That door kicked ass.. I remember waiting my next turns at midnight and re-dialing like crazy with my external GVC 2400 bauds modem.

I also remember an adult door called "STUDS" where you were a pimp.

The other door I remember was "GLOBAL WAR" (Online version of Risk). That one was really fun to play also.

WWIV boards ruled back then..

But in Montreal I used to call on Saturn V, GameMaster BBS and Canis Major BBS.

Those were the days... When GT's really meant something..

ha ha ha

i had a 300 baud modem ,,,beat that

Tom_PM · 06-25-2005, 06:01 PM

Yeah I grew up from 300 baud also. Still have my XT (that I souped up with an NEC V20 chip) with telix installed.. vintage!
I even wrote a game that was very much like Operation Overkill. I stopped messing with it when 9600 baud came out, so it doesnt have support above 4800 baud, lmao.

Yeah, I started with a 1200 bauds. So I guess it was a couple of years after you. I remember when the first Sysop stopped my BBS "browsing" session and entered in a chat with me, I got scared and turned my computer off (My Amiga 500).
