My first messenger was MSN. When I first joined MSN chatroom. I was very excited to chat with people tru Internet. Later on I found Yahoo messenger so I downloaded it. I go to their chatroom and listen to people talking on the voice chat. It was fun LOL
A few years back I was idling and chatting on IRC non-stop. I had myself a grand old time but eventually we all scattered to the winds and well I've gotten way too busy now to be idling and chatting. Though I understand your enthusiasm.
The last chatroom I used was napster. Man that was a great community, but the record ompanies took it down
I don't stay in chatrooms i use messenger (yahoo ) for business and to talk wioth my friends but i'm not the chating type
No longer, nowadays Chat Rooms are so crowded by bots that you do not know if you are talking to a bot or human beings. It is another totally abused system which is a great waste. Most of the bots will ask you to go on to some paid sex chat lines etc.
