Remember your first posting on the Internet?

I posted in alt.callahans in 1994. Until they had a big fight and I got disgusted and left. IRC’ed since Dec 94.

BBSing… Since about 1986. :smiley:

Another c64 + 300 baud modem user here.

My first BBS post was a question on how to solve one of the puzzles on Leisure Suit Larry.

Well, i guess it would depend on what you’d call the “Internet”.

My first post to an online forum was on the NORAD BBS in Orlando, in 1989. I was asking about what was a good communications program, since the one i had was lousy (i eventually ended up using TeleMate). I was 12 at the time.

My first post to a national online forum was on the Music BBS on Prodigy, talking about a They Might Be Giants concert. 1991.

My first Usenet (and therefore most appropriately termed first Internet post) was a question on inline skating on rec.skate. 1994.

And mine was in the same place, shortly after. Man, it’s been almost 10 years, zyzz! :slight_smile:

My first BBS post was in 1985.

First post to Usenet was in '87 or '88; don’t remember which, but it was before the alt.* groups were created…

I posted to alt.college.fraternities.sororities back in '93, but, yeah, I had probably posted something, somewhere, back in the 80’s with a mighty Apple II+, I believe [sub]though I could be wrong[/sub].

I was right there with Danalan in the 80s with my trusty C-64 on the original Compuserve, but that’s not really the Internet.

I think my first post to USENET was in 1992 or so on one of the guitar-related newsgroups. I can’t remember which one.
