Did flat fee unlimited access ruin the net?

The internet was never better than in 1995 when AOL was 3 bucks an hour. Upper-middle class whites and asians used it almost exclusively.

Now it's overrun by shit and niggers. That monthly fee kept the riffraff out and made people use their online time wisely instead of wasting it.

Now every chat room is full of people who don't talk, staying logged in with bots. Every forum is full of spammers making 100 posts a day.

I remember being one of those September freshmen back in '89.
You've been on the 'net this long? Tell me more! Did you used to dial up to those old fashioned BBSes? Did you lurk on USENET, and if so, what newsgroups did you peruse? Twenty years later, how do you feel things are now? Better? Worse?
