Just a question, how many of you don't turn on AIM when you're online? I know that theres a few people posting right now that don't have it turned on right now. Just wondering why? I can't help it, it's like an addiction. Theres just certain people that I ALWAYS want to talk to when I can. Theres some that I dont, but I just ignore them.

So why don't you turn on your AIM?



A second question to this......What chat program do you use?
I have AIM which is always on. And I also have accounts with Yahoo and ICQ, but dont use them that often.

I dont think ive ever turned my AOL IM off while ive been online. at the most if i dont want someone bothering me ill jus put them on ignore. I had a yahoo chat type thing but my accounts there got all fucked up. forgotten passwords, that sorta thing.

Ill add a question to this that kinda relates, do u go online with other screen names so noone will bother u, or so certain people wont know ur online?

Yeah, I never took to AIM - I think I came from a time when it was considered even lamer to have AOL than it is now.

And yes, obviously you don't need AOL to use AIM, but still...

I'm one of those folks who signed up pretty early with ICQ - I'm a big fan of that... but of course, they're owned by AOL too.

Sigh, can't escape it I guess.

No Fez, it's not all about you.

But my point is why don't you feel like it? Do you not want to deal with other people? Are you doing other projects when it's off. What's the scoop people.
When I'm online , but my AIM is off, I'm usually hiding from people, or I dont want to deal with assholes IM'ing me.

my aim is almost always on if i'm online.its just a reflex, and i get really screwed up when the first little window on the taskbar isnt aim.i also always have on yahoo messanger, but thats just to tell me when i get mail and save my bookmarks.its been about a year since i've talked to people over it.
occaisionally i'm off aim, but thats just when i want to avoid multiple people.if i want to avoid only one, they get blocked

Lets play a game with Maynard, everybody block him on AIM for one week. ;)

My AIM is always on unless I am doing a sig pic or at work.

Well the first thing I do when I log on to AOL is put my AOL instant message on away. To many people that I dont want to talk to anymore that know it. But then I turn on my AIM and its always on untill I get off the computer.
To answer JJ's question yes I do have another name that I sometimes use, but thats not very offten.

I usually forget to turn on AIM. When I remember, I usually get snagged by someone I have no interest in talking to.

I used to use Yahoo and ICQ, but got weird instant messages on Yahoo, and only knew 2 people on ICQ.

And, yes, I have a "hiding" screen name.

My Aol Im is on alot under SuckaMC26, feel free to say hi anythime.

Sometimes I'm under this other name, a girl name and I prank my friends with them, pretending to get ask them out and when they act like losers and make assess of themselves, I tell them I'm a guy and laugh at them the next day in class.

The World Trade Center may be in ruins, but the American spirit and unity will never be "rooned".

My AIM is on 24/7, though I use alternate screen names when the show isn't on. I had to create several private names after getting pounded by IM's at odd times during the day when I wanted to get away from the board for a while.

I only have my AIM open to a limited number of people because I got sick and tired of strangers IM-ing because either

a) they happen to live in the same city or state as me
Them: Hi. I'm from (insert city here).
Me: And I should give a fuck because....?

or b) they're some horny kid looking for their first round of cybersex. ("HEy BABY WanA SUK MY COckK?")

Besides, I hate IM's; I always feel this pressure to be witty, for some reason.

I dont blame you. I think it is a general rule on OA.com that you never click a link I post. Fuck, i would pay to have that rule added to the FAQ.

...and it's bad
that i took that second look
i guess i'm an open book
you know i didn't really intend
to embrace you that long
but then again i wasn't the only one
