remember internet chat rooms?

[Iggle Piggle]

I do and I think they all got closed down, or am I just not looking in the right places?
I used to be a member of Grapevine Edge on MSN but cannot find it anywhere.
Maybe the AB editors could start up a chatroom ?

[Mustardmit]

I think most chat rooms closed down because of hysterical propaganda -I used to have great fun in some of the msn chat rooms.
AB has a chatroom! here it is ...wanna cyber? (jks)

[dizmouk2009]

Teen chat used to be popular, if you didn't get someone asking to cyber in a few minutes of joining the chat then you were on the wrong website lol.

They're still on gumtree & yahoo. The yahoo ones are multi-lingual.

MSN closed all their groups and chatrooms down a couple of years ago.

[ummmm]

Hiya Daff....how are you?

[squarebear]

Shame really. I used to take part in a quiz room and that was great fun.

[Jumbuck]

ICQ http://www.icq.com/main.html has a number of chatrooms (including a non-stop trivia quiz in which the questions are generated automatically)

[hippyhoppy]

http://www.ukchatterbox.co.uk/ has regional rooms as well as triva and other quiz rooms...

Hi Ummmm, i'm ok I suppose, i've not managed to replace my broken PC yet so haven't been getting much computer time since Christmas day :(
My son lets me use his PC sometimes but I just want my own again.
The oh is thinking about cashing in some shares to buy me a new one but i'd rather he kept the shares for now....so we are trying to save the money up, it isn't easy though when you don't have a good income!

squarebear, my first ever forum and chatroom experience was MSN and I had a couple of my own MSN groups for a while, I was also involved in quite a few MSN groups involved with forum signature making, I miss them :(

[ummmm]

Daff....I can't find you on FB. I've forgotten your real name (sorry) Give me your initials and I'll send you a message.

[daffy654]

My initials are J.M. ummmm.

[daffy654]

I never had problems in them either apart from the odd people sending whispers asking me what colour underwear I had on etc. lol

[ummmm]

When the internet was a novelty...Me and my sister use to go into chatrooms and see how quickly we could be banned. :-)

[daffy654]

I only ever got banned from one MSN group and that was a single parent group, the group manager didn't like me telling the other members that it maybe wasn't a good idea to post photos of their children in the group albums of an open to the public group. I do wonder what his justification for the ban was as it was perfectly sensible advice as far as I was concerned.

[B00]

Yeah, remember them well, I used to be a moderator too for MSN chatrooms, called The Lobby- great times...great times.

[ummmm]

I was in my 20's at the time and would just call people names...so childish I know...but it made us laugh :-)

I don't do it anymore...

[B00]

Only 'cause the chatrooms have long gone Ummmm ;-)

[ummmm]

Lol...no no no...I grew up :-)
