any oldfags remember BBS from the 80s/90s? What were posters like then compared to now?

No, but this website tries to document the BBS period.

the trolls were better. if the troll posts were dumb, they were much funnier.
the BBS scene, IRC, USENET, etc. had a big IQ filter. everyone using them was pretty intelligent.

any oldfags remember Habbo Hotel? What would you actually do?
>>
>>84611894
Habbo didn't used to allow you to walk through other users, so we'd just stand in the way of things such as to affect gameplay and ruin the experience of other people. People would get upset! And we would do it while antagonizing them, dressed as black people in suits with afros (Patriotic Negra's was a related troll group), dancing, and calling the mods racist for banning us.

The raid in 2006 was incredible because imagine all of the main rooms in Habbo Hotel completely filled with hundreds of these negras, making the game basically completely unusable. And then these raids would continue on a spontaneous basis for years afterwards from people just making a thread on /b/ announcing the raid and calling for /b/lack up.

it used to be kinda funny, but then a bunch of normies flooded in and tried to replicate it.
