The legendary Ronski/FBR 2001 sends greetings to you mere mortals...
I've descended from the heaven of eliteness to be amongst you mere mortals. Boy have times changed since we officially retired the Commodore 64. FBR owned the 64 and as such, we rightfully retired it when we retired late 1989.
I'm happy to see emulators and demo/intro archives in existence today! You guys are coding some really cool stuff nowadays and it's good to know that coders are still rocking with the C64. We won't punish you for continuing to code on the 64 after we retired it ;-)
For all the guys from the early days, get in touch with me! I spoke with Kickback recently and we talked about the good old days. I still talk to Rabdoe frequently but I've lost contact with the other elite dudes.
I'm back to the heavens now in that immortal world of eliteness. Consider yourself blessed to have read text from the infamous Ronski/FBR 2001.
WE OWN(ED) THE 64! |

"I don't think these people truly understand the power and magnificence of having you here! Back in the days of True C64 glory, 99.9% of these people would not be allowed access to the "Elite" BBS's (Jimmy Z's board, etc)."
======
Speaking of Jimmy Z, anyone still in contact with him? Haven't talked to him in years and wouldn't mind catching up.
And yes, Warez Galore sure brings back memories! |

All BOW before the legendary Morrissey!
We MUST care because it was a part of our life at that time and to be blunt, we KICKED ASS! We took an 8 bit machine and made it do things it wasn't intended to do. We were "kids" at the time and guess what? We were more organized than most kids our age because we were in a group and that required teamwork. The best of the best became Elite and I (as well as other C64 Greats) bask in the glory of such eliteness to this day.
Morr, your graphics now may seem pale in comparison to today's stuff but you can't compare today's stuff to the masterpieces created 20+ years ago. YOU WERE THE GRAPHIC'S GOD ON THE C64 at that point in time, a claim that many people can't make, even to this date on 32 and 64 bit platforms.
Yes, 20+ years has passed but so what! Yes, it's history now but many great events are historical and we still talk about them to this day and learn about them in our schools. We made history and for all of the true ELITE C64 people from the days of old, HOLD YOUR GOD DAMNED HEADS UP because you were a part of HISTORY!
The honorable Lord Ronski signining off....
