I very much remember Hotline, and from before the days of Carracho or even the Windows version. With the Windows version came the banner advertisements, and along with that, the "click here for the password" scammers. The community feeling was quickly lost to unscrupulous greed.

but yes, for quite a while, Hotline was fantastic and it felt like you could find anything. I spent many a night filling up what little hard (and Zip disk) space I had from there.

actually, Hotline is still around. someone bought hltracker.com and it's back online and happily serving the Mac OS 9 era revival. :)

also preterhuman and the agency iirc. i wonder what happened to tracker-tracker

I remember hotline very fondly. :-)

Hotline was such a great scene!
