Adult people are the only people who even use it, as far as I know

Maybe they became "known" for that

LoL

Business can be stupid as fuck some times

Anal Hobbit 06-10-2011 01:51 PM

Yngwie 06-10-2011 01:58 PM

LOL right.. They will ban people using ICQ in the adult business for text that they type to each other that no one else other then the ones in the convo can see? haha

I guess russian spammers are fine though :1orglaugh

Wait till the morning in Moscow and everything will be working again. The new owners of ICQ just need to connect it with FSB's COPM sniffing system. I believe it won't take more than a few hours.

The OP should learn the proper use of the apostrophe.

the closest I see to prohibiting adult would be this in their ToS

:thumbsup

you can sign up for a free jabber acct
at https://register.jabber.org/
you just fill out a username, a password and the captcha to register

you can then download pidgen, a popular open source im client and set up your xmpp (jabber) account and your online in minutes.

make a thread with everyones jabber username and add/chat away.

ive heard bad stuff about skype since microsoft bought it, i never used the messenger. this is an alternative if anyone wants to give it a try. Could skype do this type of thing later as well since its owned by microsoft? jabber is open source.

Bump these fake news to the top! :pimp

Lamis 06-10-2011 11:45 PM

Perfect...

Glad I switched over to mainstream. There is the money and the action now.

Adult is plain dead, just check the adult webmaster forums, most of them are dead or there is less activity now than 5 years ago. And internet population is 3 times bigger now. So, what is your explanation?

2intense 06-11-2011 12:14 AM

icq is up and working

To be serious, Skype doesn't deliver offline messages. Also it case closed encrypting algorithm, so you don't know who is able to read your conversations. Personally I don't trust it.

vsex 06-11-2011 07:35 AM

Wow, Boneprone let loose most of his fake nick's in this thread! He was really pushing for a win!

$5 submissions 06-11-2011 07:42 AM

LOL @ Boneprone

Dude's got mad jokes

The Porn Nerd 06-11-2011 09:46 AM

I use ICSkyMSNpeQ. Maybe that's the problem?
