Lol holy fuck. I think they shut it down because cp was so easy to find there. When i was a kid i had a teacher who used limewire to play music for us, he later got arrested for cp never to be seen again

I am 34 and my first computer was pic related.

For me the golden age was bulletin boards in the early 90s. I was like 14 asking for pics of 14 year old girls on IRC. Good thing I didn't get vanned but that wasn't even a thing I suppose.

>>690435503
I have never had problems getting files on kat. Download Game of Thrones every sunday like 20 mins after the show airs. Don't they just all kinda search the same shit nowadays? Never used TPB but have nothing against it.

Limewire. It was a program that you could share files on like songs and movies etc.

There wasn't a difference at first, it was using the Gnutella network for p2p file sharing. Now it uses .torrent files instead.

Who remembers downloading a song and when you played it, it was the "my fellow Americans" bill Clinton shit?! Topkek

>>690435893
Just one example search street fighter on Kat the pc versions aren't on there but all 4 versions are on tpb. There was a few movies last week that disappeared before I could dl them too. Is fucked cause they're not even breaking copyright laws by archiving torrents.

>>690436286
Well I haven't used it.

Germany has ISP's which forbid the use of torrents and charge around 500 to 1000 euros for torrenting. I'm a Eurofag too, hoping that won't spread to my country.

I liked Limewire because you could het away with it as the filenames weren't obviously cp and lots of people that didn't even want it downloaded it too.

It was also great at getting warez games & apps.

I am not a pedo but you would have loved IRC and bulletin boards in the 90s. I was a kid and had so many people sending me cp I didn't want it was crazy.

I used to use both, I remember downloading "porn" and the tittle says "girls jus wanna have fun" never pay attention to that until I saw what download, It was a video of a girl getting fucked by a pony with the cindy lauper song.
I will never forget that, it was so funny.

Well since it was across 9600 baud modems it was only pics. I was around 14 so I would go on IRC and or post on a BB saying I wanted to 'trade pics'. I had a whole fucking folder of that shit (again I was 14 myself so I didn't know better). Can't even recall what it was to be honest anon. Not into that shit. I do remember a lot of family stuff.

Ya I have no interest in cp (don't get me wrong I like hot teen pornstars and shit) but it was very very unregulated back then. Nobody even knew what the fuck the internet was yet.

The other fun part that probably seems odd to todays techie people was phone hacking. With a whistle you got from a captain crunch box you could hack payphones and do crazy shit (free calls, three way calls, take over numbers). I had a payphone up the street from me so I was all over that shit.

Yeah bro. The 2000-2005 golden era of the kids born in the mid 80s and early 90s.

Those years should include those born in the late 1970s and early 1980s.

As another anon here was speaking, we got to enjoy the true joy of the "wild west" Internet with BBs and websites with porn and mp3s, before that shit got outlawed and restricted.

It was a time period when the FBI was more concerned about catching pedos using chat rooms to hook up with kids, rather than watching what people were actually downloading.

Of course, we were at the mercy of using a slow as fuck modem, and Internet access was charged by the fucking hour each month.

I remember on Kazaa though, getting Dragon Ball GT subtitled episodes with those ugly yellow ones, low resolution, took over an hour for each episode.
Plenty of porn even when I wasn't looking for it.
