Used to use ICQ to play UO because there was no chat system and you could only see text on the screen from players around you. I remember alt-tabbing to chat with people to find out where the PKs were or which dungeon we were headed to, and I thought...this is awesome! Alt-tabbing to chat lol!

Holy shit I ran a really popular BBS back in the early 90s here in Austin (if you were BBSing back then from Austin you probably connected). I had THOUSANDS of LORD players. That game was fun as fuck.

Let's also not forget..

CompuServ was my first foray into the internet, and the wonderful world of chat rooms.

Oh, and there was this crazy bitch
