Yeah, that was a classic way to troll peeps since the early 2000's.

IMing is still a key way to talk to peeps. At least in real-time.

You just have to ask. Usually, it's referred to by the IM being used anymore.

IMing has been publically redundant for years. time was it was the top way to keep in touch, but the introduction of more and more social sites soon put an end to that. the closest thing you ever hear about these days are phone apps such as Whatsapp, Oovoo, Tango, Viber, snapchat and their ilk. most of those apps now have free internet calls and even video calling. skype is still going strong, though I personally don't see the appeal, and most decent online gaming sites use in-game instant messaging packages along with Mumble voice chat. so instant messaging is in fact an everyday part of our lives, it just hides behind other products ��

some people are still categorized as being low tech, they have no computer, limited to no internet, and old school analogue push button phones. the IM is for them. especially if they're in a life situation which inhibits their ability to physically socialize. for someone like that IM could be the only barrier to chronic depression or bed sores. you should count your lucky stars that life hasn't dealt you such a poor hand, not that they rank at the bottom of western cultural echelons, but because, for some, internet is life, such an existence would be akin to social demise
also, I just gave you a list in my previous post of IM services which are currently in service, and being used today. and I forgot to add KiK to the list too ��

My favorite thing is when I emerge as a leader in my friend group's nonsense.

You're like me. But with 80s kid cartoons instead of K-pop.

lol, I'm so much the king of only wanting to level up and look pretty, that I've just created a SWTOR guild dedicated to just that (well, there is some rp too of course, but its all PVE). I created it three days ago and already have nearly thirty members, this time next year we'll be bagillionairs. lol, when I get out of this infernal place I'll screen shot my charry and his sidekick for your perusal

when guys create female characters to garner better treatment from other guys.

when guys create female characters to be that much closer to sneak-dating girls ��

When beginning writers go through that stage where writing a character of the opposite gender feels like it should be completely different from writing one of the same gender and therefore a huge challenge.
/I remember this stage well
/now, my favorite OC is male

I hope I can exchange perseverance without a receipt. This one's defective. It never shuts off and makes me kick a wall to China and throw a lamp into the sun.

I tried SWTOR, but I couldn't get into it :\
I jump a lot between MMOs so I'll probably give it another go eventually.

Right now I'm playing FFXIV and GW1
