Are you all too young to remember old school chat on services like Prodigy and AOL? Where did all of those people go? AOL Chat survived in some form until 2020, what happened to them all?

WRONG. I'm right here.
what was your service of choice? Why did you quit?
I used AOL when I was 9 once and I talked to some b***hy 14 year old and never used the AOL chat rooms ever again
People talk about CoD lobbies but AOL was way fricking worse.
I used to go in the VB3 room before they shut it down, I even had several Host accounts on both AOL and Prodigy. It was rough and prone to abuse. I know because I was one of the worse abusers kek.
Whats a good terminal bassed chat program
irc is the only one and its dying fast. dead, really.
>and its dying fast. dead, really.
still alive, just not popular with normie homosexuals and zoomy zoomzooms. irc is better for it.
I've been on efnet since 1999 anon, IRC is fricking dead
>Are you all too young to remember old school chat on services like Prodigy and AOL?
i remember them, i remember that they were fricking trash and irc was far superior.
> what happened to them all?
meth addictions, multiple kids and living in trailers (probably).
> efnet
embarrassing. how does an internet protocol die exactly? a server can lose traffic but a protocol isn't "dead". anyone can run an IRCd. IRC protocol will be supported until the end of time. there will always be IRC servers. will there always be a discord or <whatever cancerous app of the day> ? absolutely fricking not. can you run your own discord server? a real server, not this fantasy nonsense invented by furgay pedophiles? ah. that's right. no, you can't. cope, seethe, dial8 and go the frick back, Black person.

tl;dr, stop sperging, IRC is dead you dumb fricking geek
efnet is dead
dalnet is dead
undernet is dead
NO OTHER NETWORKS MATTER
especially not fricking geeknode
cope, seethe, dialate yourself you fricking false flagging reddit Black person
> he thinks a protocol is dead
you better let the Internet Engineering Task Force know about this. they'll have a great laugh at your schizo cope post. imagine not knowing the difference between a server and protocol?
> durrrr IRC is dead
> lists a bunch of garbage servers nobody has ever liked
why is it that you furgay pedophiles are never actually on any good servers? just live stream your suicide and get it over with. you're too pathetic to live.
>not familiar with the original big 3
>probably not even aware of how the protocol was created and the efnet/ircnet split
either you're trolling or you're ignorant as frick. i think you're too fricking stupid to troll, you 100% believe your lamer bullshit.
>didn't even link IRCv3 spec
goddamn you dont know anything do you
homosexual geek
Exactly. irssi is comfy AF
I used to be an EPiC kid, then a b***hx guy, now I use weechat
What networks are you guys on?
I'm on LiberaChat.
yeah you obviously don't actually use IRC or you'd realize those user counts are 90% eggdrops you dumb fricking newbie Black person geek
have a nice day gayface
>thinks those are actually people
This motherfricker has never been on IRC in his life.
Not in 20 years at least.
ngl this surprises me, I haven't actually tried to be on IRC in a few years, I'm glad some new(ish) networks have sprung up to carry the flame.
I pulled in mad b***hes from aol when I was 8. Also at least one pedo who started talking about his penis and made me very uncomfortable
18/M/CA professional skateboarder with the world's hugest wiener reporting in
weechat is comfy
and the secret IQfy irc network is also comfy
>mfw they don't know the server address
Like deekchat.ml? Seems pretty old-school to me, in terms that gays got their own ciclcejerk in self-written shit over discord group
>deekchat.nl
what the frick is this abomination
there's 4 people on LMAO
>nl
anyway
>what the frick is this abomination
A chat room.
>there's 4 people on LMAO
Yes
i met my first girlfriend in a roleplay IRC, turned out we went to the same high school. dated for about two years, and then split up. ill not go into the details but that remains the only relationship that failed because i fricked up;- since then its always just been shit women
thats interesting anon, I met my wife in chat RP. i was involved in Prodigy back in the 90s, then transitioned to IRC and met her on darkmyst
one of my friends is currently married to a girl he met in star wars the old republic, ehich kinda counts.
i miss the comfy feeling of the internet from 1995-2010
im curious though, i've been all around IRC rp at this point, what channel? not trying to glowBlack person you, wont ask for further details
i hardly remember, but it was an incredibly small group, mostly local people and a handful of americans (i am an aussie). i got invited by a mate from usenet where we used to RP as german prison gaurds (and prisoners) during an escape. couldn't tell you the name of that one under oath either, its been like 15 years and i hardly ever think about it
Surprisingly, Microsoft's Comic Chat from 1996 still works and people still use it.
I was a Host on MSN Comic Chat Beta in 1997
Anyone use Pow Wow Messenger? It had VoIP, text to speech, whiteboard, browse web together, audio player.
browse web together sounds rad, thats ahead of its time
I remember this one https://download.cnet.com/CheetaChat/3000-2150_4-10025380.html
Everyone would collect the same wav file and when someone played it in the room if you had the wav it would play.
both aol and prodigy had that feature in 1995

God i miss xfire
never used chat services when they were major things
used google chat till it died, moved to skype till they banned me for no reason and admitted it was automated and wrong so I should just make a new account, and now discord.
and what happened to them is simple, they evolved.
i mostly wanted to know if there was an organized migration to another service or not
miss alot of those people
I remember on AOL figuring out how to get mass mails and discovering the wonderful world of warez.
It was really just a haven for grooming, asking people if they liked wearing diapers and all sorts of weird stuff
