Hey guys try to beat this... I made my first Warez site when i was 9 years old! =)

My site had like 7k/day then =)
Man those days where sooooo COOL! :D

[dplaymax]

well as for warez - i just lived in Asia - it was easier to find than the internet :) ever hear of Tower Records selling warez cd's - they did in Singapore before :)

[Jon]

I love my warez...

I wish warez didn't die...But with all those major free space networks going down there was no way to survive...I mean...Its all gone back underground thru warez cds or ftps...Irc even...I have a feeling it will all come back...Just give it time :)

I've been in the biz for 0 years, actually, I'm just a porn surfer. I went to worldsex, a normal bookmark for me, clicked on the trade partner that went to easypic, clicked on another link, and then clicked on the link that said trade traffic, and just found this board. How fun

Hi, I just got in this business now, so I guess I'm a newbee. I'm now submitting galleries to tgp's, it's fun. I found this board cause I got jerked around a bunch of sites. I do this part time, I'm also a college student. It beats the heck out of bingo night down on the stip.

[Smitty]

Qualitythumbs,

Warezonline never got anything close to 150k a day. Your best day wasn't even 50k. Why must you come on here and lie so blatantly?

come on smitty, give him a break. What was your liquidwarez secret, hmmm?

[Dragon]

I've been in this business since 1997. Started out just surfing porn and found a link one day that said ...."Get your Free Adult Site now" ......that was all it took.
Way back in the day I surfed alot of the warez sites mentioned here....damn I loved them...prolly one of the few peoeple that actually clicked the banners on the sites out of appreciation :D

[DialerNET]

I can beat you all.
I started in 1995 when the 14.4 modem was lightning fast and took up the length of my PC case - and that was an external.
I believe Mosaic was the browser of choice, and a year later blinking text on webpages was all the rage.
I can't remember whether I was still using Windows 3.1 or had just upgraded to Windows 95, but I remember having to connect through that old crappy winsock client.
From memory my computer was a blisteringly fast 486/25 SX with 4 MB RAM.
I would have bought more, but another 4MB cost $200 *chortle*

My whole purpose of getting online was to provide the wonderful community service that we still provide today.
I started at the age of 20. And I was still a virgin...
hmmm... Maybe that's why I took to porn.....

So.. Coming up to my 7th year :)

I know how much traffic I got and I don't need no dumbass telling me how much traffic I had...

87? You shitting me? Did you mean 97?
I think in 87 we were browsing the web with DOS edit ;)

I started on my commodore vic20 15 years ago. We were exchanging warez tapes at that time! :)

[shane]

lol, yea, i mean 97. My ZX81 never had a modem

[Dan S]

Cool, some 96ers! :)
I started also back in 96, doing AVS sites on my 486 60mhz 4MB, I remember those win 3.1 nights!

[Dan S]

Oh yeah, and I skipped that warez time and went straight into porn :D

[shane94]

I started out in late 1999. Saw a ad at a pay site the said webmasters clicked it and said wow! I can do this! And the rest is history :D

[nasko]

I've been in the interent biz since 1998 when I had one of the biggest mp3 sites. Then in 1999 entered the porn and it's full time job for me now.

It was fun with the mp3 sites before 2000, it was like this...50k/day uniques = $15-20k/month...sounds good ? :cool:

[Brian911]

started '97 with a personal site slowly evolving to a celeb adult site :)

actually, I made more with the 2k/day on that free site back then than with 50k of freesite traffic in these days.. good old times

[bitz]

late 97 with maxcash as a sponsor :)

[Richard_IBSI]

Holy Cow...I must be the newbie on the block, I used to be part of the alt.2600 newsgroup. Reason being, funny enough, is that I hated the T50 sites with the spin off adult pop ups. Shit that pissed me off, until someone pointed me the NG's. Ahhh, bless their souls. Anyway, 1 year for me!
