As for pee pee stuff, well, that is part of the reason this thread exists....because of those kinds of posts. I don't run away. I just don't want to be part of that childish shit.
I was just surprised at your admission, that is all. I thought you were one of the ones that actually did well on the net.
Good luck and I hope you can pull the board up by its bootstraps. It does have a lot of potential and at least the traffic is now real.

Naw man... Ive never said I was an internet player. I made a considerable amount of money in the IT field during the dotcom ramp up.
I had 2 hobbies during that time. Forensic data recovery which starts at $300 an hour and then the adult web on the side. The BBS ended up morphing into a 5 letter domain name.

For me IT was a lot more profitable. Biggest mistake I ever made was having a hard time accepting people would pay for what several of us were extracting for shits and grins out of the newsgroups.

Homegrown BBS and Wild Rose Net were the big shits of the day making money on dialup and translating it to the web. As far as I know they have both kept on keeping on.
