so is there a program/chatroom with mostly 90% hatrackers?
Posted by Tatiana (Member # 6776) on :
on AIM it's "Hatrack Chat" though I don't think it's very active lately.
Posted by Lyrhawn (Member # 7039) on :
How do you even enter a chatroom through AIM? I've never done it
Posted by Tatiana (Member # 6776) on :
One easy way is to add yourself to your buddy list, then invite yourself to chat, and when the chat invitation dialoge box pops up, replace the long random chatroom number with "Hatrack Chat".
(The way you invite yourself to chat is to right click on your buddy name in your buddy list, and pick "Send Chat Invitation" off the menu.)
Posted by Tatiana (Member # 6776) on :
I'm in there now, Lyrhawn, just to see if you make it in.
(At the moment it's me and two corpses.)
Posted by Lyrhawn (Member # 7039) on :
Yay I figured it out!
Woot!

I don't want to install AIM... they read your emails...
Posted by Mr.Funny (Member # 4467) on :
Umm...
Do you mean instant messages?
Most people (aside from those who use AOL as their ISP) don't use AOL for email.

Using iChat in File menu select Go To Chat and enter Hatrack Chat
Posted by Kwea (Member # 2199) on :
They don't, actually....

Use iChat? Posted by Mr.Funny (Member # 4467) on :
I think he's talking about the email reading comment.
Posted by Blayne Bradley (Member # 8565) on :
argh trying to install it, it aint working.
Posted by Mr.Funny (Member # 4467) on :
If installing aim doesn't work, you can also try AIM express , which is a java version that doesn't require installation. You'll still need to register an user name if you haven't already, though.

I recommend Gaim. Not that AOL actually does read your IMs, but they do bundle a lot of spyware and other junk I don't want with AIM.

I have dignity to maintain. I will not install AIM.
Posted by kojabu (Member # 8042) on :
The AIM chat has had some hopping nights recently. Everyone should come!
Posted by Jonathan Howard (Member # 6934) on :
I am NOT going to have anything to do with AOL. So you'll just have to deal with it [joyously / miserably / rapturously / ecstaticly / sadly].
Posted by mr_porteiro_head (Member # 4644) on :
Jonathan Howard -- have you ever used Winamp? That's an AOL prduct as well.
Posted by The Pixiest (Member # 1863) on :
I just hopped on hatrackchat on AIM right now and no one was there =/ There never seems to be anyone there when I look. I'm wondering if Trillian doesn't handle the room right or something.

Posted by kojabu (Member # 8042) on :
Wait. I'm there.
Posted by mr_porteiro_head (Member # 4644) on :
It's not "hatrackchat", it's "hatrack chat".
Posted by kojabu (Member # 8042) on :
It shouldn't matter though.
Posted by The Pixiest (Member # 1863) on :
is anyone there right now? Trillian seems to pull the spaces out.
Posted by kojabu (Member # 8042) on :
I am! getsmartkaos99. MrPorteiroHead is as well, but no one seems to be responding to my greetings.
Posted by Tante Shvester (Member # 8202) on :
I'm not!
Posted by The Pixiest (Member # 1863) on :
doesn't look like I can get in. Trillian pulls out the space =/
Posted by kojabu (Member # 8042) on :
That's weird though, because for things related to AIM, spaces don't matter.

So is Netscape, which is why I use Firefox now. Posted by mr_porteiro_head (Member # 4644) on :
I use firefox because it's a better product.
Also, you didn't answer my question. Posted by Architraz Warden (Member # 4285) on :
Someone invite Architraz Warden if they can... I want to see if AIM Express will let me into the chat (the invite isn't working on my end).
Posted by Jonathan Howard (Member # 6934) on :
I did use Winamp for a while. But no, not now. I'm going between media players.
Also, Winamp is not as directly controlled by AOL as AIM is, kinda-like Netscape. AOL don't give a damn. But then, PartitionMagic is now 25% Microsoft.

trying to get in, pulls out space and I'm the only person in chat, anyone still actively using it?
