Revision as of 10:47, 23 April 2015
The World Wide Web went online in 1991[1] and by 1993 was gaining momentum. Prior to this, pay-based online services, like, America Online, Prodigy, CompuServe, and GEnie dominated the market. These services offered a chat feature sometimes called, "chat rooms".[2] At that point in history, boylover's were not as alienated from the gay community, as is the case today. Boylovers often frequented gay chat rooms, eventually meeting and developing friendships with other like-minded individuals. By 1994, many of the users of the pay based internet services had began to migrate to the World Wide Web, as it was much less expensive. Many boylovers at that time, who had been use to communicating in chat rooms, discovered Internet Relay Chat and the Usenet which featured, "newsgroups".
The Usenet resembles a bulletin board system (BBS) in many respects, and is the precursor to Internet forums such as BoyChat and other web message boards that are widely used today, the most prominent boylove newsgroup at that time being, alt.support.boylover. It should also be noted that there were newsgroups in the alt.binary groups which showed very honorific images of children, most often girls but sometimes boys, being tortured and abused. The newsgroup that were more popular with boylovers such as alt.binary.pictures.boys showed images of boys playing sports and other activities, as well as some light nudist imagery.
While both the Usenet and IRC had existed prior to this time, they experienced an enormous increase in use during the period between 1994 to 1996. Unlike the pay services, these forms of communication were largely unmoderated which meant that boylovers were free to discuss their interests and concerns free from censorship. At that time, one of the most popular IRC channels (chat room) was on Efnet and was called #ASBL. Most, if not all, of the original pioneering boylove webpages and sites on the new WWW were created by users from that IRC channel. Most of the boylove sites from the early days of the web featured "picture galleries". Some featured nudist images but most showed candid pictures of boys doing boy things, unlike the posed/modeled images one frequently sees on the web today.
