Imagine unironically caring that much about a forum, let alone one that has been digested through the bowels of the internet as many times as TOTSE.
I am waiting for something like a VH1 'behind the music' expose on TOTSE, wherein it is revealed the userbase consisted in the end of the same 15 or so damaged welfare-recipients sockpuppeting eachother.

In the 'totseans' BBS and subreddit, there are a few posts about former regulars' lives. they're exactly as you'd expect.
TOTSE did have its charm, though. imagine something like it trying to fly today.

Agreed. Totse morphed into some socio-politico chimera/ retard utopia. But it was interesting a I can remember a lot of other services/sites that emerged during the time period that seemed so important at the time but didn't have the longevity of Totse.
God damn it gaster, you now have me browsing the shitty mirrors.

TOTSE was an extremely controversial BBS and later forum where people passed around how-tos for things like drug manufacturing, scams, explosives, etc. it was very early internet.
TOTSE (, commonly mispronounced as "toot-see," "toat-see," or "toats") was a San Francisco Bay Area website and former BBS dedicated to storing text files on a variety of subjects and viewpoints, many of which were unusual or controversial. The name is an acronym for Temple of the Screaming Electron.

I'm actually more amazed that some vestige of TOTSE is still clinging to life.

it seems like they wander from forum to forum, server to server like hungry ghosts

I've been on the internet before it was an internet and I've never heard of this. I feel like I missed out.
