Back when everyone on the internet was naive.
How many of these collectors are still in the hobby or alive
Let alone still have these games in their collections.

Bump
For no reason.

I was thinking how we thought freely posting our email addresses on an open forum
would have no consequences, or invite to get spam and junk mail.

It is a shame that 95% of messages on Google RGP is now spam and other junk.

Effective February 22, 2024, Google Groups will no longer support new Usenet content. Posting and subscribing will be disallowed, and new content from Usenet peers will not appear. Viewing and searching of historical data will still be supported as it is done today.

Good old John though is still holding down the fort over there

I still keep an eye here.

I'm using Eternal-September.org so I don't see anything but real messages...

I also got a note that giganews has been taken over by the users and
other usenet aficionados so I imagine their filtering is now dealing
with the problem.

google-groups is the joke here...

USENET newsgroup will still be active, you just will not be able to post anything to it thru google groups anymore

The Kaneda of his time, only worse, if that is possible.

Almost makes one miss all those old timey trolls.
Here on Pinside, you do not get much of a chance to get exposed to that vitriol.

We can also reminisce about some of the good people that were on RGP
that are not on pinside or around anymore like Al Garber
