So many memories. I got into fandom a bit later than you, 1999, but it still applies so much. It took me forever to figure out what word counts would mean for a fic.
Also it's interesting to look at some modern fannish activities, like podfic, and realize that they just wouldn't've been possible back then.
My mailing lists always had the monthly discussion about proper etiquette too. Cut your posts, use the subject lines, understand that most people are using a slower modem than you.
