Yes. I was called Former PRN which I thought was so clever but made me sound like an ex-nurse or something. And I was just as unknown and mediocre on AMP and I am on the Org. Except there was this one girl who thought I was funny that she offered to pay for my move to the Midwest, She was sending me job applications and everything which was kind of cool I guess.

Wait maybe I'm confusing this with Paisley Park, the chatroom on AOL. Who the hell knows, I feel like I'm 80 lately.

Ok so who exactly was/is the infamous "T" and why did he have so many bootlegged songs? I remeber Rhastus (Time devotee) and Rude Dog and some others.

It was fairly nauseating in retrospect, but that was true of many Usenet groups. We were all learning to use the web back then, and Usenet was like the far West.

but it was always sooooo entertaining. I like reading whatever anyone posted without fearing that someone would pull it, block it, what have you.

I used to read alt.music.prince--I think I only posted a handful of times. But I also read Prince.org from its beginnings (and the Paisley Park mailing list before), but apart from 4 or 5 posts under a previous name I didn't start posting hear until about three years ago.

Anyway--I remember Rhastus and Rudedog (and everyone else mentioned)--didn't those two used to post here too?

I didn't post much, but I regularly visited and read the comments. It was a fun place.
