Are you saying those of us over 30 can't hook up with a 15 year old? [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Only if you are a female high school teacher. It's all the rage these days.

Most people over 30 (like me) don't IM and don't IRC. Well, maybe at gunpoint. The internet (as we know it today) wasn't invented back when we were kids. The closest thing to the internet was AOL and Compuserve - but these services were mostly a waste of time/money (except for downloading cheesy shareware.)

If you were super dorky, BBS message boards via modem were also available. Most were spare PCs run by kids in their parent's basement and only one person could log on at a time and download porn. Life at 19200 baud sucked donkey butt.

I guess you weren't a fan of 300 baud.

Nah, most of the people 30+ here are also pretty stupid.

2400 was bad enough. I'm glad i never actually had to use 300 other than to see how slow it really was.

I've been thinking that maybe we need an OOT only for people 25 and older or something. I hate sifting through threads about how to ask out a 15 yr old and "gimme props on how much beer i bought".

I think it should go by IQ, as assigned by me.

Damn, you have been around for a while. I started during the 9600 phase. Upgrading Paradyne modems to 19.2 was awesome.
