IRC in Quakenet as I have roughly 8 years of buddies on there.

Oh and something called LiveJasmin?

Rarely used a chatroom even when they where popular.

 

[Neodite]

Good times had with MSN chat rooms creating proxy bots in mIRC to take over channels or flood them till they crashed... Then when more people started doing it moving to C# bots and giggle at how much faster my army was

Being a script kiddie like a boss.

As for chatting in them? No not really, except some old IRC channels.

Mind thinking about it, I had an IRC channel with a Q bot that only 3 people ever used. This was before Q bots needed a ridiculous amount of users.

I remember AOL chat rooms. I don't think I've used one since then. If I did it would probably be to troll it with SCSI spam.

I idle in our IRC channel most days

I used to love chatting on AOL when I was 13. Loads of hot older women on there always wanting to private chat... Them was the days

I used to use AOL chat rooms when I was a kid with my dad sat next to me making sure I was OK.

"Press 453 if you want to chat"

Last chat room I used was chatagogo about 12 years ago, met a girl from Swansea dated for 2 years great girl shame it ended. Those were the days, spending hours talking rubbish. God knows how many months were wasted sitting in front of the screen writing crap

Coming from aol back in 94, i used to miss the chat rooms from there, met many a gamer/ girl .

What with MSN now dead what is there?!

 

[gigeorge]

I think the internet has been dumbed down a lot in the last 10 years so people use stuff like facebook on their phones instead of old style chat rooms.
.

Yeah thats so true, computing as a whole..

Used to use them way back before the flood of pervs took over. Hooked up with a few girls back then but this was before digital cameras were about and they all claimed to be 21 y/o Britney Spears look a likes. It was a lot easier and seemed more innocent.

Last time I tried one a few years back it was just blokes trying to harass females into watching them have a waz on the webcam

Still friends with a couple of American girls I speak to regularly on phone, email etc.
