    And the Internet didn’t exist back than in the sense that there was no real yt, twitter or Facebook yet.

    Damn, what the fuck was I using to talk to random people about rc stuff and music and shit? CLEARLY it wasn’t the internet, as that didn’t exist before facebook and youtube blessed the world with their presence.

    Gladaed, what you’ve just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

      The Internet as thought of today. I know about Imageboards. Weird browser games that were actually fun and some flash game websites. But the Internet as used today did not exist in 2005.

      Usenet existed, lime wire and content piracy were a thing I guess. E Mail was new and used as a kind of instant message of today.

        Dude either you say something else than you mean or you should do a little history research before posting.

        Yes the mega Corp Internet as of today did not exist, but people had forums, blogs and many people had their own website, where they would post stuff to.

        Navigating was kinda rough but you had ways to talk to people and stuff.

        And I somehow just don’t like how you talk so from above about the old internet. It was different, not worse.
