For me, it was the ample photo storage and access to the classifieds section.

Actually, the Power of Christ compelled me.

My roommate was talking shit about my music choices.

I saw something about it on the free expression tunnel.

I needed a medium through which to send unsolicited dick pics.
Back in 2000:
-Sending pics through text message wasn't a thing
-For several reasons, my audience of my church's email distribution wasn't working out
-Instagram, Facebook, and Myspace weren't really there yet

I couldn't creep in people's DMs, but I was able to creep in people's PMs with TWW

i saw EMCE's listing in the local church flyer for his new dick pic venture and had to get in on the ground floor

What about their BMs?

BM Sent.

I sent a BM this morning.

1/26/2026 2:20:43 PM

I haven't gotten any of your BMs

I joined TWW because I was promised a $50,000 sign on bonus.

Roommates and tunnel graffiti.

Are you tryna put this site outta bidness?!

1/27/2026 8:15:29 PM

I'm not sure he compelled me to do it, but you all have Trebinor to thank for my ultimate ruining of TWW

IDR why I signed up. it was definitely the end of the semester (judging by the signup date)

or, end of the year (like we probably would have been moving away from each other shortly) so idk why I did that. maybe because I was looking forward to a boring summer ahead or something

summers inbetween years at state were pretty uneventful and empty for me

I hated the summer after my 1st year. I loved my first two years

early user mdbncsu hit me up on AIM

Thank you, Trebinor!

I think a tunnel painting but in retrospect it changed the course of my life… it was in tww I saw a post asking if anyone wanted to work for NCSU IT, I applied and got a part time job, that lead to a full time job and the career trajectory I’m currently on

Without tww I doubt I would have ever got that first job, might have stayed at best buy and fell into who knows what…

1/27/2026 9:26:39 PM

Oh god

1/28/2026 5:15:20 AM

fairly certain it was because I ran into scud on IRC and he knew the crew that ran TWW back then

1/28/2026 8:12:28 AM

yeah, real story - I visited EvMan at UT and he showed me the infamous UT porn from TWW

we drank some Everclear from an empty Orbitz bottle and that was when I knew

but this place also changed my career trajectory
my addiction to shitposting led to me becoming a digital community manager and online marketer
also, after grad school, Danny hooked me up with my first in-person marketing gig which opened the doors for the job I got at RH some 12-13 years ago

1/28/2026 8:18:14 AM

I was late, but a friend told me it was a good place to hear about new music.

I only posted in ST for a long time though, defending Sid Lowe from trolls

1/28/2026 10:26:27 AM

It’s kind of crazy how TWW has had a pretty big impact on so many lives.

I met my wife through TWW. There are two children that might not exist had I not joined.

I used to do that with Herb. Now I barely ever post in Sprots Talk, because I just don't care that much about Sprots, TBH.
