CYBERBULLETS CAUSE NO PAIN

a promo t-shirt from late-'90s online gaming service Heat.net, complete with dog tag

imagine walking around in your community wearing this combo, enlightening passerby to the virtues of "cyberbullets" while advertising your membership in some sort of world wide web paramilitary squad. WWTNT? _{for that matter what would the vietnam vets think}

'90s hardcore PC gaming was a weird fucking era

the logo on the dogtags smeared off after a couple wears

The prizes for the local FPS tournaments at the time were always custom shirts. I had a bunch. I think the prints recently gave out finally. Now no one will know I won a Delta Force competition 😔

I played Quake II on Heat.net! This is probably the first time I've seen it mentioned since then, 22 years ago. Wild.

oh, i... actually hadn't grokked that it was playing at being a crosshair, heh. in my defense (?) the modified peace symbol / crosshair is pretty meh graphic design imo. like they went for something and the resulting effect is just middling.
