Yahoo kills chat rooms

http://www.click2houston.com/news/4645857/detail.html

"A lot of them feel betrayed that Yahoo did not give them prior warning," Carr said.

This is for user created chat rooms only. Yahoo maintained rooms are open.

My comments:
First of all, get a life! If these people have nothing better to do...so much so that they get pissed about this, then good grief...please get a life.

Second, it was a FREE service. So stop whining about it for God's sake.

Now, those innocent computer users are wondering how they will fill the massive void on the Internet.
Obviously they haven't discovered the joy of Internet ****.

True, they did a sting story where they played as if they(Ch2) were a 13yo girl and they told the guys to come to her house. Some brought beer, one of them was a childrens orthodontist, and the smart one brought religious phamplets.

I think that they played like they were 13. I'm not sure though.

Man that is what I was thinking.

We should have an emergency back up plan.

Like....if f150 goes down everyone meet at such and such forum.

We'll do a head count and make sure everyone made it out safely.

New Sticky thread: "In case of catastrophic forum thread meet here..."

I'd just do something else with my time. If it was only temporary, no big deal. If it was permanent, I'd go the my backup site which I haven't been to in awhile
