@NeoNeo I thought it was....though I am not sure in what way you access it now. I didn't try to get into it..thanks.
NeoNeo · 46-50, M
@ravenwind43 Those IRC servers can be accessed by using clients like mIRC, Kwirc, androirc and few others
ravenwind43 · 51-55, F
@NeoNeo that is what I used...MIRC
ravenwind43 · 51-55, F
They were great and yahoo messenger was too. I miss them!:)
Pretzel · 61-69, M
I was more an AOL chatroom-er
WillaKissing · 56-60
I do, and then yahoo became the red headed stepchild of Google, and never fought to regain its prominence.

My first internet connection at home was a WebTV. It was easy to maneuver, no risk of getting viruses, and I could use it as many hours as I wanted each month without having any overcharges. One of the neat features was chat rooms on a variety of topics and some just social chat rooms. They also had many topics of message boards that were interesting and fun to use. Having conversations with so many others at the same time was kind of fun at times.

I met my now x wife on yahoo.
I made friends via yahoo, and when it went down, I lost touch with a lot of people.
JustNik · 51-55, F
LOL I was a regular on Moonlight Way. So much fun. 😄

SW-User

Yes! AOL and Yahoo had chat rooms and groups full of lively chit chat about anything and everything under the sun. Before that, there was CompuServe and local bulletin boards. Since they were mostly modem connections it was mostly all text.

I think most of it was destroyed by spam and advertisement, and it looks like spam is going to destroy e-mail. All the important e-mail I receive is now buried in a mountain of junk mail.
bartender · 36-40, M
I met my bff from Yahoo
bartender · 36-40, M
@woodyemma2013 i met some very interesting people on ep
Staying in contact even after 12 years
woodyemma2013 · 41-45, F
@bartender I still have contact with a couple of people but most have drifted off these days
bartender · 36-40, M
@woodyemma2013 it's sad, isn't it
I also lost one
She was here too, not anymore
Heartlander · 80-89, M
I remember Yahoo Group chat rooms. They were great until spam destroyed them. Also AOL chat rooms were a big success.

I belonged to a few on various topics. I remember the ones on the computer programs like Windows and the various Office products. Those chat groups were great for getting instant advice. Even big shots from Microsoft and Apple participated.
familyfunguy · 56-60, M
I remember going to the library for that purpose.

Suck my Richard.
originnone · 61-69, M
I liked chat rooms. I'd still do it if I could.
Classified · M

Oh yes! I remember the old yahoo chat rooms. I first charted chatting using the aol chat rooms. Hell, I couldn’t even hardly type back in those days. Had a lot of fun chatting though!
TravisTx · M
Yeah, I used to mess around in those old yahoo and aol chat rooms. I started chatting before I even knew how to type, yet! Haha!
I remember the world's biggest chat... I think that is still going - though I don't use it anymore.
DViper97 · 46-50, M
I do remember using them and would love to find something similar. Hard to find people willing to chat anymore.
in10RjFox · M
yes.. but I didn't find it good as I was more into IRC & SKYPE (until it had the search feature)
olderuncle944 · 70-79, M
