Prior to the internet condensing into just 5 or so websites, what do you remember fondling about being online?
I remember winning a raffle contest on the old Terraria forums and getting to pick my own title (instead of just New Member, Member, Well-Known Member). Of course, since I was like 13, I picked a random collection of letters that only I knew was an acronym of my signature on said forums.
I remember reading gamefaq guides on very pbscure ds games that I loved to play but was very bad at.
I remember my classmate printing half a rim of a ps1 game walthrough from gamefaqs because he can’t be online all the time since the modem uses the phone and his family can cut the connection simply by lifting the phone receiver.
