Get Conected With Telnet!

As part of our uniqueness - we don't use the web! We are an interactive service that allows you to be directly connected to our online community "server". This method is called Telnet and provides you a fast, direct, real-time connection to our system.

If you have Windows 2000 or XP, just click here and you'll be connected to our system with the "built-in" telnet client. It works, but you'll see us on a small window.

But if you want to experience the system in full screen mode and in living color, click on the link below to get your FREE copy of mTelnet (a Telnet client) to get yourself on our system.
