I miss it

I think the first hentai clips I ever saw was La Blue Girl. Set the bar pretty high.

Magical Drop is a puzzle game though...

You could click these on the sides of some websites(I was 13 or something) and it would take you to some pay for hentai website where you could download 15 second clips. streaming wasn't as much of a thing at that time.

and what are you faggot prepared to do to get it back? Because I just see people complaining and very few people trying to do anything about it

The only people that want the old internet back are people that probably never used it and don't understand how shitty and obnoxious using a 28.8k modem on a computer with a 133mhz processor and 16mb of RAM was. Functionally the internet is ridiculously better these days and the amount of content/information available now is astounding. Nostalgia is gay just like you and your gay mom.

lol you have no idea what the OP is talking about.
If you're this clueless now maybe you were just as clueless back then

It's pretty silly to think a thread like this is related to the technology of the time and not the community and experience. FYI, I started with Prodigy in '94 with a 9600 baud modem until my family upgraded to the blazing fast 28k a few months later.

If you have any ideas I'd love to here them

In my opinion one that that would really help is to have a site that's not as conducive of creating "community identity" as most sites today are. I believe that's the cause of almost everything annoying about modern internet users whether they're fighting to change the identity of a community or trying too hard to fit into it.

so you think the "ideal old-net" site were the ones without a community identity? I'm sure that many sites had that, it wasn't so obvious though.
another problem however is that a lot of places have conglomerated the independent sites. tumblr, wordpress and etc. took over blogging, other places followed similar patterns.

>so you think the "ideal old-net" site were the ones without a community identity?
No. I don't think the answer is to just go back to exact clones of old discussion formats and old technology. I think there's a real problem today and I hope that even younger generations can also see it too.
That if you just take an unbiased step back and look at the big picture of the internet today it's just a big cesspit of annoying whiny self importance.

The "old internet" is just a model but it's not important.
Times change and things that worked then to create the atmosphere it had won't work today, and if you want to recreate your ideal internet you'll probably have to come up with some new ideas. That previous post is just my guess at some new way of looking at it that might improve the situation

To where and in what capacity?
