This conversation is making me feel old. Back in college I got addicted to a couple of text based "mods" that were pretty much the birth of games like world of warcraft. This was 10 years or so ago and before this "internet" thing really took off. It was all done through telnet and was on one of the old green screen monitors with no graphics.

I even gained so much experience points in one of them, that I because a "wizard" and got to code my own world. I'd get home from a party and be up playing that until the sun came up (of course if it weren't that, it was the newly released Sega Genesis system).

Looking back, I'm not exactly ashamed of this, but I'm not exactly proud of it either... Now I'l lucky if I can get an hour free to myself, so no chance of me getting into WoW.
