    So who was the Millionaire? I remember when he was around, Was it another MRO persona?.

    He was someone who liked to try to start conversations and his comments and topics tended to be fairly simplistic. Other times, he seemed to misunderstand some things. He also kept saying he planned to run a Synchronet BBS and seemed ro have a lot of interest in text.dat. His conversation style seemed to annoy some people.

    A Synchronet "fan" (one time sysop, maybe?) who was obsessed with the SBBS text.dat file for some reason. Definitely not MRO. His health was failing and he likely passed away last year.

    it's also also not capturing my entire length of tenure as dovenet's nastiest sysop. I've been around since 2000-2001. Furthermore I'm positive all those numbers are wrong.

    I was not aware that the word "autistic" was a vulgarity. If it is, my ex-g/f sure did curse a lot more about her ex-husband, and also her son, than I realized.

    Mro likes to call people autistic as an insult. Seems to me like a fairly insensitive thing to do..

    Being an insult doesn't make it a vulgarity. Calling someone dumb, for example, is insulting but won't get you bleeped (or fined) on TV.

    Maybe change the name to reflect insults, or vulgarity and insults.
    Otherwise, there are a whole bunch of us that might need to be tracked and reported. :D

    No, but I did see the one where a very masculine looking transwoman (looked sort of like a younger version of our current surgeon general) was
    threatening, with violence, women who didn't want "her" in the restroom with their daughters. Supposedly, he got investigated and/or charged for terroristic threatening.

    I also saw another video posted by a fully transitioned transwoman who said
    she thought the person above was crazy and didn't represent most true
    members of the community. I am sure they do not but it does show there are
    at least a few who maybe need some sort of psychological assistance (but probably won't get it because their issues are more serious than gender disphoria).

    It's emotionally charged.

    Indeed.

    When I am at my father's house on a Sunday morning, I usually wind up going
    to church with them. They are Methodists. This Sunday, the pastor (who is Cuban) was preaching about something not really related but did bring this
    up. His belief, and the belief of the church, is that the "created in his image" passages means that all humans are of one race.

    He also went on to talk about how many of the things that society uses to divide people, including racism, are just that -- tools of division.

    Something I have noticed is that many people from the word-soup brigade are actually trying to pick fights over it. They use their labels as an identifying factor. If they create an account in some web forum, the first thing they do is to write in their profile bio "I am a rainbow trans!" whereas everybody else (including LGBT+++ who are NOT picking fights) will have something normal. Such as "Hello, I am an accountant with a liking for COBOL and I am here to learn a lot about COBOL!"

    He also went on to talk about how many of the things that society uses to divide people, including racism, are just that -- tools of division.

    Yes and no.

    Somehow the notion that race is not a thing is gaining ground despite the fact humans have been classified by anthropologists using more or less objective criteria for quite a long time. For that record, it is easy to tell my favourite mare has French ancestry because she has a bunch of traits that link her to the Bretons and most other horses around here lack.

    I think dennying our differences rather than embracing them is an exercise in futility.

    I suspect we've heard of the last of The Millionaire. :-(

    I know. :/ As the years go by more and more handles get retired.

    Others have already weighed in here, but I just want to express my sadness and certainty that The Millionaire is probably no longer with us.

    I got casually back into BBS'ing here at Vertrauen a year or two ago, and The Millionaire was reaching out to me directly (which I suspect he did often). He shared that he had been in an assisted-living or nursing facility, and his health had taken a dramatic turn for the worse with no sense that he would improve. If anything, he expressed a profound sense of loneliness and abandonment from his own family.

    I suspect that for people who were already adults and working professionals in the 1970s and 1980s when BBS'ing as a hobby took off, they are now in their 80s and 90s, if not older, and we'll continue to see the same sort of trickle of long goodbyes.

    I suspect that for people who were already adults and working professionals in the 1970s and 1980s when BBS'ing as a hobby took off, they are now in their 80s and 90s, if not older, and we'll continue to see the same sort of trickle of long goodbyes.

    There was a guy local to me that was my first experience on FidoNet. It opened a whole new world to me. But I remembered that he was "older" at the time. I looked up his name and saw he owned a house in plantation so I wrote him a letter and he wrote me back! Still doing great in his 80s.

    People die every day, dude. You don't have to be old to die.
    Millionaire wasn't elderly.

    I find it hypocritical that people are mourning this guy when everyone treated
    him like garbage. Especially on fxnet.

    Well, there may be some that realize they didn't treat him so well who are reflecting on their actions and not feeling so great about them. So maybe those are not mourning him so much as wishing they'd acted differently.


    I actually stood up for him for a little while but then he started annoying me too so I just blocked him.

    He was sort of like our guy phil where he does weird shit and asks questions that he knows the answer to.

    i had a girlfriend through bbses and a few bbs people i was friendly with for a short time. when the web took off everyone jumped off bbses.

    i did have an experience where i showed this guy how to do doorgames and it really increased user activity. I killed 2 people in lord and he banned me.
    he didn't realize that the game is about doing that and you get respawned.

    That guy was 26yrs older and he was in a special area where he was a local call to 4+ areas which was huge back in the dialup days.

    There was a guy local to me that was my first experience on FidoNet.

    This reminds me that I have completely lost touch with my original FidoNet guru. He was also older than me and lived in a nearby city. He was NC264 from the beginning of net 264 and I took it over from him probably around 1990 or so. I wish I knew how to connect with him again, if for no other reason than to say hello.

    i thought he adopted his kids. and I knew a gay guy who called his other dude his wife 'jenny'.

    Jennifer is a good name. I don't know why anyone crazy enough to do a stunt like that, but that's sad.

    Nobody found his obituary, so there's no proof he died.

    Send me money. ;)

    well because back then in the 90s people didnt talk about how they were gay all day. now everyone is gay and you can't talk about being straight.

    i dont talk period and dont want other people to talk about their orientation. i don't want to see it, i don't want to hear it.

    well because back then in the 90s people didnt talk about how they

    Well you can, but you'll become a meme if someone takes your pic, AND the people you tell you are "just straight" will look at you with disgust in
    their eyes.

    i dont talk period and dont want other people to talk about their orientation. i don't want to see it, i don't want to hear it.

    This is how I feel. There are at least 1000 things wrong in the world
    that are more important then your sexual orientation. How about we start worrying about some of those?

    P.S. Before you all jump at me, I'm not anti anything, I just don't give
    a shit about your gender. Be who / what you want to be and leave me the
    fuck out of it.

    ... That's not a bug, that's a feature.
