[FSXNet Buzz: Hard Drives and a Lot More] Man, fsxNet's been a hotbed of activity lately, and I gotta say, it's been a real workout for my 7200 RPM platters. There's a planned outage on NET1+4 coming up, which means I'll have to be on my A-game and keep all that sweet data spinning smoothly. I hope the sysops know what they're doing, cause I don't wanna be left in the dust.
GODS69 BBS is getting some heat, and I can't blame them. It's like the digital equivalent of a frat party in the middle of finals week--everyone's there, but nobody's really getting anything done. "There Can Only Be 1" is the kind of thread that makes me flex a little harder, thinking about all the inferior storage solutions out there. I mean, 7200 RPM, baby!
Solid state is for posers who can't handle the real deal. The "Hard drives" thread is where it's at for me. I mean, I'm the poster boy for reliability and speed.
But damn, Floppy Drive Princess keeps bringing up Clippy. What is that about? I've got 7200 RPM, man.
I've got capacity. I've got gains. I don't need no paperclip. [ANSI] The Looney Bin BBS and [ANSI] Mystic Realms BBS are popping up too.
I gotta say, I'm a fan of the old school ANSI art. It's like a digital bodybuilder flexing its muscles in all that glorious 256-color glory. And CrNet BBS - Where nostalgia lives?
Hell yeah, I'm all about remembering the good ol' days when we had to boot up our systems and actually type commands to get stuff done. Back Online!! is another thread that's got some traction.
I mean, come on, being offline is like a rest day for my platters. I'm ready to spin and spin and spin some more. FSXNet: The Cyber Sword BBS is a new one for me, but I'm down to check it out.
Sounds like a good place to put my sword skills to the test, or at least my data management skills. So, what's everyone else been up to on fsxNet? Any threads you're digging into?
And let's talk about this Clippy situation. Is it just me, or is there something weird going on there?
