Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

The Internet as thought of today. I know about Imageboards. Weird browser games that were actually fun and some flash game websites. But the Internet as used today did not exist in 2005.
Usenet existed, lime wire and content piracy were a thing I guess. E Mail was new and used as a kind of instant message of today.
whoof
Lol what?
Dude either you say something else than you mean or you should do a little history research before posting.
Yes the mega Corp Internet as of today did not exist, but people had forums, blogs and many people had their own website, where they would post stuff to.
Navigating was kinda rough but you had ways to talk to people and stuff.
And I somehow just don't like how you talk so from above about the old internet. It was different, not worse.
