Yea, I am upset that you didn't PM me at all Dianna! From now on everytime you don't PM me I am going to bite the head off of a gummy bear. How's that!!!!
LOL! If you had said that to me when I was 5, you wouldn't be here right now.I could carry a gummy bear with me for hours and pretend it was my pet.

I used to be in the chat rooms more often before, but now I rarely go in there...sometimes it's fun, sometimes it's not, sometimes I feel awkward. I think I have talked in the mic like 3 times in all the time I've been in CC, I either PM or chat on the main if I see a friend or the topic is interesting.

So true.
Some days I love coming into the chatrooms because majority of people I know I have developed online friendships with and I love just hanging out or discussing things. But othertimes, yes you do get those types. But Ive discovered the remedy - the minute I realise an argument is getting heated by one or more overly opinionated anti social types I just say:
"Who wants to play bible trivia!!!!"

I also give prizes to the idiot strangers who don't read my PM box (and I hate to say this but they all come from a Middle Eastern nation).
Prizes usually come in the form of:
Third Place - They get a polite but very hard worded message from my husband asking them to leave me alone.
Second place (if they ignore my husbands message) - I name and shame them publically.
1st place (if they ignore my husband and me naming them publically and they STILL don't stop), then I report them to mods.
If they win 1st prize I have a sneaking suspicion they get their membership removed only for them to use their other backup name or make another one then send me annoying messages AGAIN...
*sigh

Probably a minority opinion, but I miss the old chat days before the whole web cam/voice chat thing dominated the attention of the main room. I liked the good-old-fashioned text speak, it seemed less distracting.
For a short while there was a text only room, but no one used it and I guess they got rid of it cause it wasn't popular.
Yeah I know you can mute it, but it's not the same. It seems people don't pay as much attention to you now if you are too shy to voice.

I tend to be more of a typer than a voice chatter too, Relena. I won't fight for the mic unless it's important. I do like voice when there aren't many people in the room though.

Im glad you had fun!
in my case I'm stuck with old fashioned dialup internet and the result is that I can't get the chat rooms to work if I have it set to hear speaking or see the webcam, which of course means I miss about 80-90% of the conversations, so I see folks responding to something that was said by mic, but have no idea what it was so I really can't join in the conversation.
I know this is off topic but, why is it that every web developer assumes that everyone has highspeed internet access? Am I really the only one who doesn't have hs internet?

How come u still have dial-up? Is there no broadband access available in your area? I'm just curious because even cell phones have broadband these days.

I rarely go in the chat rooms.
but I like CC chat rooms , they are better than other rooms in the internet (they are safer)
I usually go to the lounge (but i only like to listen ppl on the mic) and to the biblestudy (its interesting most of the time when ppl talk about only one subject) and youtube
And i usually visit all the rooms for few minutes, when im in one of them i start to be very curious about the others .
But to speak in the mic i prefer the rooms in which are only few ppl.

I've found myself unemployed for the last 8 months, and had to move back in with my mother who is also unemployed on disability and dialup is all we can afford. This fact is playing mary hob with a few things that I used to enjoy when I had spare time.
Oh i'm sorry to hear that. I've been unemployed for some time too. There are some companies offering cheap broadband for low-income families now like Comcast. Only about $10 a month if you qualify. That's probably comparable to what you're paying for dial-up.
