Well. BF6 was fun while it lasted

BBS's were great back in the day because you had one phone line and had to get off or your parents would kill you. Operation Overkill II, Trade wars, some of those persistent BBS games were awesome. Typically the Sysop had one line too and if you were on playing Trade Wars no one else could until you got off.
Legend of the Red Dragon... had me... The Realm took me and EQ owned me.

BBS door games were a lot of fun. Probably the earliest adopter of time gated/daily play models as well - it was a BBS admin setting, but most of the ones I played usually limited you to a set number of actions a day for games like LotRD (probably to prevent people from playing them all day). There were a bunch of dirty ones also - I remember "Pimp Wars" and you could do stuff to other people's offline characters, then when they logged in they saw what you did lol
Myrtle Beach, SC - Be me - Direct strike, came right through the UPS took out 2 PC's one so bad it blew caps off the motherboard & accessory cards. UPS was fine but I junked it anyhow.I learned as a kid living in Tampa to get a UPS for my PC very early...
Thank God for great gaming on the PS1/N64 at that time.


Same happened to mine - caps blew on the mobo and s bunch of devices never worked the same. It also melted a part of a CD player we had plugged in nearby so bad the top didn't open anymoreMyrtle Beach, SC - Be me - Direct strike, came right through the UPS took out 2 PC's one so bad it blew caps off the motherboard & accessory cards.

1st house, new to home ownership/mortgage. Meet the insurance guy . 1st question - are you going to cancel me? Guy gives a weird look , I said hey I just need to know if I should start shopping for insurance.Same happened to mine - caps blew on the mobo and s bunch of devices never worked the same.

The same logic goes for cars. If you pay off your car, you still 100% need car insurance. Hell, I keep full coverage even though our car is paid off. It's worth it.and still keep HO insurance. You never know........
