Welcome Back.... to The NetherWorld

:pointr: If you're here in search of The Netherworld BBS (Northern Virginia) back from 1992-1996 you've come to the right place.

Step 1 :bulletgreen: Nab a deviantART account
Step 2 :bulletgreen: Click "Join This Group" to the left.
Step 3 :bulletgreen: Check back within a day, or note me ( spyed ) with your email address and I'll hunt you down!
My contributions to The Groups Project here at deviantART have been substantially inspired by my desire to rebuild The Netherworld BBS. But I didn't just want to rebuild The Netherworld, I wanted to allow anyone to build a Netherworld of their own.

So Dark Shadow, and Jyger, Silicon Soldier, Pitfall, Billy, Strider, VeXuS, and HaVoc... Tyranork.... and a long list of friends; I'm going to make it a side mission to get us all on here so we can hang out and catch up. And that's really the singular point of this Group... for now.

Now there's a secret here. Fact is, the account "netherworld" was taken in 2003 by a deviant who has since disappeared. Email address defunct. Totally dead account with no activity. With one exception; a deviation.. a poem.

I will leave you with this poem, copied and pasted and credited to an unknown author. But it follows, and to me it was eerie. Like a gift left by a stranger to be found by another stranger communicating through time and space. Whoever you are, the Netherworld means something similar to you as it did to me.

A memory...
This place I visit when life closes in
When enveloped in darkness, that's where I begin
It's all in the past...
But it just seems to last...
Eating away at my mind through the din.

A memory...

This place I visit when life closes in
When enveloped in darkness, that's where I begin
It's all in the past...
But it just seems to last...
Eating away at my mind through the din.

Holy shit. Blast from the fucking PAST. I recognize a few names from that list. Jyger, Strider, Vexus. I also remember a dude named Hepcat? He had some obsession with Julia Louis Dreyfus.

I remember TWC. Me and a buddy also made some WADs, we came up with "Mega WAD crew". Nowhere near as awesome as the TWC mods but we had some fun making them back in the day.
