Well first of all let's talk about the name Banditland. Everybody asks the same question, why Banditland? Back in 1992 I started a BBS (Bulletin Board System) that people could call to play online games, Download Files, Chat and just hangout. The internet wasn't like it is today and most people used their modems to call other computers not to an ISP. Anyways I called that BBS "Banditland" and the name stuck, it was just a name, so here some ten years or so later, I thought it would be nice to get the url http://www.banditland.net and have a place to share things with family and friends. I can put pictures online for people to see, links to my favorite sites, and have email for the people that need to get in touch with me.
Banditland bbs ran from 1992 until 1998, that is when the calls just didn't come any more. By then most everybody had some form of dialup to the internet or they had an AOL or Compuserve account. The BBS community had died off about as quick as it started, only the Multiline bbs systems had anything to offer and were usually connected to the internet by some means. I had lots of fun running a board and got to chat with all sorts of people, shared information, files and I managed to learn alot about the world of online computers. I believe that Bulletin Board Systems cause the main surge in the internet traffic that we have today, instead of being logged into one computer, you were now connected to thousands of computers, and the content, well you could find pretty much anything that you wanted, unlike a Bulletin Board that usually had a theme and pretty much stuck to that theme.
Well enough rambling on, in general this is just a place to hang out and share some information, have fun, and maybe see some things that you have not seen any where else, at least, that is my goal.
Thanks for Visiting my Site.
