Insomnia hit me hard tonight...If someone would be nice and drop by to chat at parachat, It would help me to spend some time and, of course, know my fellow jatraqueros better.

I'm online right now...

That should keep you occupied for a while.

Will the senseless burninations never end?

Will they?

Posted by kwsni (Member # 1831) on :

hey, come to AIM chat!

Ni!

Posted by Eduardo_Sauron (Member # 5827) on :

Sorry. Only have ICQ. Is AIM good?

Posted by Trogdor the Burninator (Member # 4894) on :

**burninates eslaine**

Never.

Posted by rivka (Member # 4859) on :

It's useful -- there are a whole lot of Jatraqueros who have AIM. And if you have AIM, you can go to the Hatrack Chat chatroom, where those 'rackers who feel like chatting can be found. [Big Grin]

Ok...already installed AIM. How do I go to hatrack chatroom?

Posted by Eduardo_Sauron (Member # 5827) on :

Oh, Yeah...my screen name at AIM is EduSauron

Posted by Marek (Member # 5404) on :

ok I started to post how to get to hatrack chat and found out you are already there, so I guess you know how. [Blushing]

Why do you use AIM instead of Parachat?

And could you tell me how to get to the chatroom on AIM? I'm downloading AIM again...I uninstalled it because people kept using advertisements (especially for porn sites) a couple years ago...But I want to try it again.

Posted by ana kata (Member # 5666) on :

To get to the chatroom on AIM, you invite yourself into the chatroom "hatrack chat". The easiest way to do this is to put your own self on your buddy list, then right mouse click on your name in your list and choose "send chat invitation" off the menu that pops up. Then when the chat invitation pops up, change the random assigned chatroom name to "hatrack chat".

Posted by ana kata (Member # 5666) on :

But parachat is still cooler!

Okay, the other way you can get into hatrack chat on AIM is to right click on anyone's name on your list and pick "send chat invitation". When the box comes up, change the name to your own name, and the chatroom name to "hatrack chat".

Parachat has a more comfy confused couch, and better decor, and lets you play the identity game, and has newbie fishing. Parachat is way cooler. [Smile]

Posted by Da_Goat (Member # 5529) on :

Ah, okay. I am now in chat. Hip-hip-hurrah!

I'm DaGoat12345 if you want to add me, but I can't guarantee I'll be using this count very long if those ads start popping up again.

I miss the days when it was not so uncommon to get a dozen people or so in Parachat. Parachat had a certain clunky charm.

I think Ralphie is to blame for the mass exodus to AIM.

[Grumble]

Posted by ana kata (Member # 5666) on :

I would go there now except I'm supposed to be asleep. [Smile]

Posted by Megachirops (Member # 4325) on :

I've never had a pop-up issue with AIM. What are you doing differently?? Are you sure you're not thinking of icq? I used to always get "come watch my web-cam" messages on icq . . .

Posted by Megachirops (Member # 4325) on :

Me too, ak!

It wasn't a pop-up. It was a user that would mass-message people (I assume he/she was using a bot) with links to webcams and generic viagra clones.

You mean, everyone was avoiding me and my siren call thread?

Posted by Megachirops (Member # 4325) on :

Anybody wanna come to Parachat and make me feel popular?

Posted by Raia (Member # 4700) on :

I come to parachat... I wait the 3 million years it takes for the thing to open... I enter the room... and there's nobody there!! [Grumble]

Posted by Eduardo_Sauron (Member # 5827) on :

I'm using AIM now. It is very good :-)

[Frown]

(So what it it's in the early hours of the morning... that's no excuse!)

Posted by Tzadik (Member # 5825) on :

Anybody at AIM?

Posted by Raia (Member # 4700) on :

*bump*

Come to parachat, and we can have a party!!

It's SO boring in there by myself.

Posted by Ralphie (Member # 1565) on :

I think the Siren Call thread has been officially retired.

It's kind of a sad moment for me, but necessary.

I tip my hat at the new generation of parachat invitations.

Posted by Raia (Member # 4700) on :

*bump*

THIS IS A ONCE IN A LIFETIME OPPORTUNITY!!

Well, not really, but I'm in parachat, since I can't really get on AIM, though I may end up doing so anyway... but I need to go to bed soon, it's late where I am! But anyway, come join me, I miss hatrack, and I've been gone since last MONDAY! AAAAAAAAAH!

[Sleep]
