I'm just glad you're not too old to remember playing Doom.

 

Almost too old. I was 26 when I'd heard of it and started playing it. Avid FPS fan ever since...

 

It took me a good minute or two before I realized where the music was coming from lol . I had about 15 browser tabs open from researching some parts last night. I really hope LS1Tech isn't next!

 

I'm 26 now and remember playing Doom and Wolfenstein 3D quite a bit. You're definitely old. Haha.

On a side not, looks like the site is back up.

 

Your avatar - steampunk of some sort?

 

I played Duke Nukem 3D, online, through a DIAL-UP connection!

56k FTW.

 

"It's time to kick *** and chew gum... and I'm all outta gum."

 

I used to game over 56k (actually connected at 26.4 on a good day). Duke Nukem kicks *** haha

 

X2! ShAkE IT BaBY!
Also played Tribes , meltdown hell version

 

X2 or KFlex or V90? (US Robotics or Lucent/Rockwell or 3COM/USR)

Sorry, bad old modem jokes...

AT+MS=k56,0
AT-V90=0

And old modem initialization strings for maximizing the connection. I can't remember any X2 strings- the 2 above are for KFlex and V.90. First one asks the remote terminal to negotiate KFlex @ 53,300; the second says give me V.90 protocol at the handshake or close the connection without handshake...

 

GoJiRa!!!

 

Playing DNF right now. It's 'meh' but has some funny lines in it.

 

X2 as in "me too" ... Lol no hand shake for u!

 

My parents let me play Sim City and Oregon Trail. Looks like LTXtech is back.

 

^^^ serious? How about some black ops if we on this subject. Hacker must have been A mustang owner,lol and I am in progress to get certified for being a "ethical hacker", counter measures and security prep.

 

Ha ha... I knew that but couldn't resist. Worked for a dialup ISP after I quit wrenching in 1999. The entire customer base got bought by Earthlink in early 2002. We went along the coastal region from Kentucky to Mississippi (Duro Communications > CoastalNet). Lots of NC users will remember them east of Kinston.

 

Guysssss stop derailing teh thread!

 

What were we talking about any way?Oh yea... Something now irrelevant ... And in the wrong forum..

 

Looks like they are back so we can let this one go.
