    It was expensive so you watched your time like a hawk on the paid services. Played games a little time in chat rooms.

    Spent a fair amount of time on BBSs, some had turn based games where you would log in every day to use your turns. Or pirated games, sometimes you would pay to download or you had to maintain a positive upload/download ratio (much like torrents)…
