Voting for posts was changed greatly. Nobody can see that a post was voted for and the poster can see who voted for it. |

Forums had their own chat rooms. Being able to delete your own post (didn't last long). UBB forums. ugh. Points being viewable. Good riddance. Unlimited stars. I think someone Zhen-Xjell had like 6 or 7 green stars when they got capped. Wow this is tough. It is a lot easier mentioning unique features. |

I believe that when the point system was a little more prevelant, our points could be used towards line monitoring and others that we now pay for. |

It didn't have anything to do with points. When Line Monitoring began it was free for those who were guinea pigs. Great Kasia, now it will brought back up in New Features and I will have to install that camera again... |

Okay, sorry, maybe you needed a certain ammount of points to be a guinea pig? I really wasn't paying attention at the time because I was still on 56K when I joined. |

I think you just had to sign up before a certain date. I don't think any tools were ever point limited. |

You're right. There used to be far fewer front-page news articles, and far fewer ISP reviews. |

Only about 15 or so forums, and there wasn't any "premium" features. There weren't any entertainment or DC forums, so all the posting was aimed at helping or being helped by others about DSL. There were no animated avatars until sometime in 2001. |

Any chance of seeing a screen shot of what they used to look like, maybe for nostalgia purposes? |
