@Brian1946 Aaaah.
Mine was in my last years of school, where I used the school computers during lunch or after school, to explore this strange thing called the Internet lol.
I found this site called ’‘The Belly’’, which was basically just a big chat room, and you could go off into smaller chat rooms with selected groups of people. I met this girl there named Beth. Final Fantasy VIII was coming out, and that’s all we could talk about since we were hopeless fangirls. We became good friends though, at least through online standards, especially for back then. Didn’t last too long, but we did send one another letters through the mail for a bit. It was pretty cool.
The site also had minigames that you could play, and users would play against one another. One I remember was Tank Wars, where Beth and I got totally wasted, constantly and all the time. XD
That was ten years ago, give or take. Prolly a little more, like 1998 or 1999.
