The Slave Den

Also known as

  • Slave Den
  • The Den
  • The Dog Den
  • The Slaveden
  • The Slavequarters

Location: Jacksonville, Duval County, Florida, United States

Area codes 904-331 and 904-376 (November 1990, both Jacksonville, Florida).

Originally called The Tardis and operated by The Timelord in 1989.

The board became notorious after The Timelord joined The Humble Guys in February 1990 and renamed this board to The Slave Den, himself The Slave Lord, and gave the couriers for the group the names "Slave #X".

For us, how it worked is Slavelord was as genius. He got shit done, and got it done faster and better than anyone I have ever seen. He was tireless, inventive, brutal, cruel, had no principles whatsoever other than winning. He was, in short 100% THG. He can tell you better than I, because running the couriers was his main responsibility,and he did it so well, I never had to get involved really.

The Candy Man


The board has operated under different themed names.

Ran for The Humble Guys between november 1990 and may 1992 (2 nodes), and as a memberboard for Pentagram between august and october 1993 (3 nodes).

The sysop (and hence the bbs) retired from the scene in 1992 after an advert of the BBS had been shown among other BBS ads in a report about hackers on NBC Dateline. (source) - though it seems there was a comeback in Pentagram in 1993.
