The Scene as it was.

I was in The Scene, therefore, I know what went on in the C64 scene. I see TOP GROUPS listed over there on the side display and I see DD listed #2, okay, I can buy alittle of that, Robin was a good dude, but there was only 1 number UNO in all of the C64 scene... and as much as I hate to admit, it was ESI, ONLY. Far and away, this group did more for C64 than any group, ever. Fairlight and Red Sector were a close second but not even close to Eaglesoft.

:) maybe there should be a Huge link on the front page of csdb... something like "Click here if you left the scene more than 10 years ago". Then let Vanja right an introductory article for that link. Would it save us from this repeating pattern?

Just like old times :)

WTF is a demo good for? LOL

Vanja 20 years ago I would be recruiting you for a good rag, very nice.

Before my next rant, let me say this, you are wrong Shadow, if it wasn't for piracy, the C64 would have died. This is the difference between what happened before 1988 and after. We were pirates, we did illegal things with phones, we harrassed people relentlessly, we ran BBS's and we passed along software, illegaly. Just like the little Vic20, timex and those pieces of crap machines that came out of europe, the C64 would never had made it past 1986. Actually, piracy is good for software, people play and go buy, even today.

I am not here to separate or ridicule what has been done with the C64 but give a little history to what happened before 1988 or 1989. You all made the C64 survive way past what it should have but we made it last as a long as it did.
You made it last but the software companys ran off and left you.
So, if you wish to make fun, it's okay, but do not distort the true past, the people you hail are phonys to what actually happened and how it came about. If this does not matter to you, then stop reading and go play with your demo.

I had many stories that are amusing to some and recollections to others. I was not the scene, I was a criminal, pirate and anarchist in the scene.

I came here looking for some of my old friends and I see all this stuff written in your database that could be updated but I see you want to fight and be judgemental about what I say. So, to end all this good chatter, I leave you to your on imagination of what really happened before you came a long and let you worship your demos. I can see why none of the other oldtimers wish to have any part of this. To those here that were from the real scene, I wish you a longer life and long live rock and roll.

the scene does continously exist since the early 80s, who are you to slice up history to real and unreal scene ? how do you expect a friendly attitude, when you are attacking on us like that?

Speaking for myself I'd love to read about your experience with how you saw the scene, the stories, etc.

What you totaly ignore is that many of the guys from the time you discribe is still around, this board even. So what do you say about thouse? That we have dreamt the whole thing? You must try to understand that your ignorant belive that you posses the obsolete truth here is most annoying and dissrespectful towards most of us hanging around here. Like Vanja said, USA isnt the center of the world.

Quoting The Dark Judge
That's different, Radar was never part of the original scene, he was just delusional :)


I really don't see much difference between delusional ex-scener and delusional non-scener. (not to speak about delusional sceners)

I should have closed this thread when there was chance. Welcome in the desert of misunderstanding.

Vanja: Your parody still perfectly fits ;-)

Roman, think twice, there was absolutely no reason to close this thread. forums are for arguing, and not for a friendly gay party :)

Oh noes, I scared it away :( I'm sorries, I didn't means to!

Adam, seriously, when you say stuff like you did in your first post...and some of your later statements too..."this group did more for C64 than any group, ever" - thems fighting words right there, mister. You might know the first 5-6 years of the C64 scene, primarily in the US, but the AGGRESSION and IGNORANCE you showed in some of your posts does nothing for your cause and you had *better* expect to get ragged on for voicing your opinions in the way you did. It amazes me how many people think the scene died when (because?) they left it. How terribly arrogant. You, sir, do not OWN the TRUTH as to what the scene is or was. If you chose to stick around and continue telling YOUR side of the story that would be GREAT, but if you expect us to sit by your feet and listen patiently and without interrupting as you EDUCATE us about the Truth then yeah, you're probably better off sticking your tail between your legs and leaving because that's not going to happen.
