This is nothing like the old days of chat rooms and instant messaging.

In those chat rooms you could chat in the room or go and private chat. I kinda enjoyed both ways. It was hard to keep up with all the chatter but then you could just sit back and see the personalities. I miss it

It was face paced and chaotic. I couldn't understand it.
I remember one time when I opened two rooms at once and I would copy what was said in one room as a response to conversations in another room.

Some people would ask, "What? While certain people in both rooms figured out what I was doing.

Oh, the laughs!


A guy I worked with used to go into porn chats where a live naked girl was visible.
This guy would have to make a username for the session. So he made up nearly the same name as the girl except for one letter in the name. Then he would say ridiculous things in the chat room and users thought it was the girl responding.

Oh, the laughs!

You can't have fun like that anymore.

All I can say is, sometimes the "occupants" of a chatroom forgot to either lock doors or "clear" conversations. It's rather unsettling to find out what some people (Who seemed ok) liked to do behind closed doors...

I have never been in a chat room. It's creepy and not for me. I like face to face conversation. Call me old fashioned but I not crazy and killing people with swords.
