@ mikeymk - 25.03.14 - 07:20am Well, back in 2002 I bought a Nokia 7650 to replace my Ericsson T68. The Ericsson did have a colour screen, but I'd only used it as a phone, I didn't work out how to do wap or even what it was. With the Nokia, it had a nice sound to it, thanks to c chambered speaker. And the screen was a useful size. So I went on the Orange website to look for pictures and ringtones. I ended up in a chat forum on the subject, to see reviews on ringtones and the service generally, then found myself looking at other chat subjects. One was a thread where some women were ranting about how 'why do men hit women' and 'why do men desert their kids' you know, the usual drivel by some bitter woman who's treated their man like shyte and presumes everyone is the same.. So I thought i'd join in and say hi. That was in 2002 on the Orange site, I frequented there for a bit but the mods let slip just enough information for me to be able to find the now defunct Atomic Dove online game, which had a forum. With private messaging, I was able to find people from Orange, I even met a couple of them, and was then told about Prodigits. Been signed up here, on this tag, since '03 or '04. It was then I started finding various other sites more topic specific, i still frequent a car forum I joined in '05 and have posted 20,000 long and informative posts there. Quite a few people are driving around in cars I taught them how to build, as a result. And all because I was looking for The Magic Roundabout ringtone. 20000 words or characters

Ill admit it shows. I got a phone on contract when I was 18. Wap wasnt free back then. Every month id be getting 2k bills. Contract sent me broke. Id b hiding my bills. It wasnt until I went prepaid I got worse. Wap ruled my life. I admit that. I didnt care. Back in the day everyone would be in a chat site most of the melbourne people would meet every friday night. N people from interstate would come and meet us. At one stage we had up to 30 people meet on a friday night for drinks dinner n pool and mayb a cruise around the city.

People would post their numbers in the chatroom in code form to get around no digits and youd send your selfie to anyone who asked. No one cared everyone seemed normal. I reckon I went through a phone every 6 months.

Your literary skill needed all the help it could get. |
