Deafened Psychosis
==================

"DP began in 1991 under the name CyberLink BBS, but I soon found
out that it was taken already. I changed the name to Weird Al.s
Place (the handle I used), but eventually came up with the DP name
in 1992, during a creative session with another local SysOp. The
meaning of DP centered around the theme of the BBS, to let go of
your inhibitions and just have fun; be yourself and don.t let
others tell you who you should be. I was blessed to have an
amazing user base. The Marion, Ohio BBS scene was very active at
the time (1992-1994). Anderson Computer hosted regular computer
club meetings where SysOps and users alike would come together and
share. On a regular basis, I visited many of the local SysOps in
their homes, where we hashed out new ideas and talked shop.
Quicksand Jesus of Cerebral Intoxication, another local SysOp in
Marion, became an ANSI art creative partner. We would get together
often and work on a piece together, passing the keyboard back and
forth. I still have all of our work. QJ and I, along with another
art group, got together and formed the art group Evil in 1993 and
released our first art pack (EVL_0693.ZIP), which can still be
found on multiple BBS/ANSI related websites to this day. I shut
down DP in 1995, when it was evident people had migrated to the
internet. DP lived on as a website at deafpsych.net off and on
from 1995-2005, where I hosted music 6000+ files from the demo and
music scenes. I have always wanted to bring back DP in BBS form.
Several times over the years, I.ve considered it and it was until
recently that I got serious about it. I am now (as of 04-07-19)
working on a new BBS (albeit possibly under a different name,
haven.t decided), which can be accessed at telnet address
deafpsych.ddnsfree.com:2323. It is a work in progress, but it is
up and accepting connections. I also have a website page that will
put the name DP back in search circulation, so that users can find
the latest news on all things DP. I would like to reconnect with
my user base, so please meet me at my BBS." - Weird Al (Stephen
