They obviously did it for some reason, and were more than likely driven to it. I rarely use yahoo myself, and if I want to rp, I use AIM or AOL. While it *is* stupid, and their theories have holes as to it working properly, they probably won't change this strategy.

There *are* sickos out there trying to do stuff to kids, and some kids who aren't internet savvy enough to know how to deal with it. While yes, there is a time when we have to own up to our mistakes, sometimes it honestly isn't the kids fault. Blame yahoo and overprotective parents who use the inernet to babysit their kids instead of taking the time to warn kids against sickos.

I've never really used Yahoo chatrooms, I don't like the fact that you can't make your own rooms, which would negate a great deal of this. On aol and AIM you can make your own rooms and you can't get in without knowing the name, but last I checked you still couldn't make a room on yahoo, just use public rooms, which are always risky. That in itself is a problem. Don't get me started with MSN's flaws....

If you want to rp, you can make a conference with im's on yahoo though *shrug* We can wish parents would start educating their kids about the net more instead of expecting yahoo and other places to do it for them.

Well see that was the problem, the RP'ers all stayed in the RPing user rooms, but what happened was that the educational/school user rooms had names like *40 year old guyz and 13 yr old gurlz* ect. when that happened Yahoo pulled the user rooms. Not a major deal...the atheists rooms and the RP rooms were mostly affected. (We could still RP on the normal rooms, just the amount of one-liners jumped tremendously) But then this happened and the chat was seriously affected. Now people are saying user rooms are going to come back. Not going to happen. It's not too bad, it's just the amount of people to get any real T1ing experience against has gone down. I need to find a defense against temporal experts....... =\

Karasu: YIM>AoL> AIM when it comes to RP.......

Nah. I've found some of the most intelligent and decent roleplayers on AOL of all places, and I haven't found a single one yet when I sign on yahoo. But to each their own, really. It all depends on what you're looking for.

One liners in an RP are horrible, I have to agree with that. But to the point Yahoo is just riddled with flaws and trying to please everybody without really pleasing anyone. Doom.

This is true.........The oneliners are bad but if you can find some of the better T1ing experts like myself, then it works out okay, it just takes a few days. We've pretty much scattered for a while.

And the girl knew what she was doing, she was obviously being abused already because no right thinking person would sit there and strip on a webcam unless it turned them on. This, people, is why you see America as you do, the stupid masses affect the few intellectual superiors. You all wanted America to fall(Dirty American infidels must die, ALA AKBAR!!!!), and now it's here. Come on India/China, here's the world power you've been building up *hands over the world super power reins* So that seems somewhat extreme as an analogy, but really. Stupid people elect stupid leaders (Not that Bush was bad in the beginning but he screwed up majorly in the War in Iraq) and they make bad decisions. When EkwEE runs for President please vote for him.
