Hiya
Just out of interest, is anybody still mailtrading after all this time? Does anyone know of anyone who perhaps doesnt have internet access and who still regularly mailtrades?
I think that would be awesome. I dont know why...... |

I'd be interested in some mail trading, but a more modern and efficient variety. How about trading CD's of own transferred D64's etc? If anyone wants to do this, PM me.

Wasn't the word 'retard-scener' originally based on basic-demo-kind-of-things ? ;) |

once they're more affordable (aka going below 5-3), i foresee a funky usb-stick trading scene rising up. |

Yeah, if you go to one of those companies that does customer-branded product you could get a load of 64Mb or so flash drives with a crew name embossed onto them - how cool would that be?! |

How about trading hex-dumped warez printed on paper so you have to type it in before you can run it. That would just be so leet. |

Cruzer: I heard that that was the way PGP (Pretty Good Privacy) was exported from the USA, since it was ok to export a book, but no ok to export encryption software. |

Think that snail mailing will be more safe than the internet stuff.. so sooner or later we have to reanimate our plk´s or else..
but .. hmmm, would be real funny to swap self transferred .d64 files by cd... with self drawn/designed cd stickers..

The Internet will probably be shot down soon anyway, so the good old "return stamps" phrase might get a revival soon.
