This was WAY back, '94- 2000 or so. Here's a Wiki page on it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bianca.com It was the place to go to trade a little porn or have raving political debate. One of the first true Internet communities.
A great loss in terms of community and the porn was just a part of it. The news and political forums got hot & heavy.
Yes exactly, the US politics forum was amazing. A little crazy, but almost no censorship (oh that's what we call "moderation" now). Of course in the end that destroyed it like so many communities, through trolling and flooding.
The main thing that seemed to lead to the death of Bianca's was one of the main Trolls/moderators getting called up for the first Iraq conflict and seemingly not returning.
Where has the wonderful community moved to? I so miss being able to express my thoughts and opinions on the topics that were always chatted amongst friends in the Smut Shack; importantly more in the BASEMENT. Please get back to me or post here for more info on tracking down my first online community and family I was involved with. Thank you
I used to hang at Bianca's allot years ago. I actually ran across this site in my search to find it again. It was fresh and smart. I'm sorry it's gone. I enjoyed the fact that for a site containing adult topics, it felt comfortable. This site looks interesting, I hope I can find places for some of the same discussions. I don't partake myself, but hope I'm still allowed in .
Yep, I remember B's and since it no longer exists, I googled and this forum came up. I wish somebody would put together a new Bianca-like chat (wink-wink, nudge-nudge). Until then, any other place decent besides SOI? :rockon:
~tumbles down the google-slide on a tangent memory lane search... looks about and remembers some B's basement D/denizens of the past... Duke of Darkness, The Purple X, ponyboy, Lady Boadicea, Lord Silent, minion, snag and others...~
Hello everyone. I know where they are now. They gather in a "cork" which is short for cork board which means forum, at this site...(link below)...and that particular cork where they are is called z2 or z2cork. http://stateofinsanity.com
Hello...I remember you. Those folks are here: http://stateofinsanity.com ...and the particular forum/corkboard they're on is called, z2cork
I know where a handfull of the old Parlor peeps are on facebook. They still have the Mental Ward going there.
So, every several months I check B's just for the hell of it. Something is going on. I can now see the archives, and you can almost chat. What's going on? Anyone know? https://web.archive.org/web/20051026025418/http://chat.bianca.com:80/chat
94 i think i was too busy discovering other things that were more interesting to me on the internet to have noticed it. i remember naturist sites, and a.s.s. and xnxx back before it became a front for other things. even turkish and russian porn sites. there was such a tsunami of such things on the net, after it was all engineering and before it was becoming all business, but i was looking for and discovering transportation technology sites and the early big furry sites like fur nation, which was still a thing, before it got too big for the guy who started it to keep up with it out of his own pocket, and valin central library was still in its original form. tails from the blind pig was even still a thing in those days. so its not really surprising that, sorry, i missed that one. i remember zen bizaar though, which was how i discovered hips.
