More about me: Good Lord, more stuff about me... well lets see, I'll try to be pertinent. I came into the BBS seen in 1993 on the Virtual Reality Warez Board, first place my friend Ramsey ever took me. Shortly from there and after a few other such boards (aquiring Doom in the process), I stumbled upon Jim Nunn's Paragon and TGWN. Jim's boards were the first which I used an authentic ID, my own, and was myself. I learned the ins and outs of WWiV BBSes right then, downloading my own copy of the software and setting up a local BBS (obtaining the source code shortly thereafter). Coding my own stuff, I met some friends in my area, and helped Cornbread set up "The Mirage." I met Nemesis in person then, and drank alcohol for the first time in my life then as well (boy was I a scared 15 year old), never had been drunken Ice-Street bowling either. Anyhow, I then set up "The Eclipse," "The Zoo," and "Master Control Program." Well I think most people remember "The Zoo" the most. After I did all that, Jim Nunn mentioned the need for a local area server for WWiVnet/IceNet, and whatever other nets there are (forgive the fact that I forgot some of 'em). I became the @1121 Server in many national networks, serving the (716) area code. But when nobody paid as was agreed, well I took it the heck down! :P From then on I lived on Nemmy's board, until it too went down.
