I think they're reserved for the under 13's or weirdo perverts now:disturbd:

Re: Chat rooms
 

There are loads over on yahoo.

Re: Chat rooms
 

Oh yeah is that the ship thingy, i was a bit confused with it all, cos you have to build yourself up the ranks and stuff. Too complicated for my liking:D Gimme a good old fashioned forum anyday:D

Re: Chat rooms
 

lmao ! I remember that ship. It was Lycos.

Or so a friend told me. oops:

Re: Chat rooms
 

There are ???


Thats what I'm on about, ok, I understand the need for child saftey but .................. i used to enjoy chatrooms, it was the annominity, made some good 'friends' and had some wicked laughs :D

At the end of the day, I put a LOT of the blame on irrisponsible parenatal control, I should know, my partner's one of them :(

Re: Chat rooms
 

Just fire up yahoo messenger and get to them that way, or download a chat client.

Re: Chat rooms
 

Yahoo UK now uses Lycos for chat (ships 'n all). Download Yahoo messenger from Yahoo.com and you get all the US chatrooms.... full of weirdos, loonies, porn bots and Americans. :dozey:

Re: Chat rooms
 

No problem !

A heads up, you can find plenty of chat stuff here for yahoo.

Re: Chat rooms
 

Seriously though, we used to have 20 + peeps in a room and have a right time, music playing / virtual partee, and no hint of any 'hitting' on anyone.

Re: Chat rooms
 

Same here, have met loads of people in the past, haven't touched it for a few years though.

I've met lots of nice people, and one or two very unhinged people too. :erm: :D

Re: Chat rooms
 

LOL, know what you mean, you could have asked Marina ( I miss her :( )and Chim about unhinged, lets just say, the naked chef took on a new meaning ;) guess it's down to Chim to uphold my good name now, all good clean fun :disturbd:

Re: Chat rooms
 

I used to use one a good few years ago called firetalk, it was taken over and renamed paltalk there are some good chat rooms on there, lots of virtual dj's and tech rooms + social issues lots of fun. There's too many americans on it though. You can use voice and cam or just txt. Recommended if you need technical help real fast.

TBO I prefered it when it was firetalk, paltalk is supported by ads and some spyware checkers dont like it.

I haven't used mIRC for a while

My hinges stayed intact at all times Bop - and who would cook in the nude? shrug: :naughty: :D
