Yillara Skye 1 Posted May 24, 2003 Hey everyone....I was just informed of something by my brother that is really sad. I will be unable to make it to the chat tonight, because he too is doing a system update. He is updating his computer, but needs the DSL...so I unfortunately will be off line at 1 am. :) this is SO unfair! But, maybe things will go smoothly, and he will be able to relinquish custody of the DSL and I will be here...even if I am a little late... *crosses fingers, and prays* The chats are just too much fun to miss!

Yillara Skye 1 Posted May 25, 2003 I forgot....I thought the server update was on Saturday morning! I guess I need to take a break from the other projects I am doing an pay attention to what DAY it is... :) Asides from watching Nemesis(all but the ending for the fifth time), doing my three art projects, tearing down the old kitchen cabinets, fixing a bathroom(helping my mom), cleaning my disaster area(my room), and trying again to work on my story....I just got the day mixed up. Â So I will be there!!! Yay! Plus, my brother's update went successfully, so his computer is completely up to date. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tank 0 Posted May 27, 2003 Has anyone else ever used a program called Trillian? I use it because it allows me to log into AIM, ICQ, Yahoo, and MSN all at the same time and with only 1 buddy list. However I haven't been able to log into the chat and I'm thinking that this is probably the problem. Has anyone else found a way around this? If not I guess I'm just going to have to download AIM again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Data 0 Posted May 27, 2003 I have found problems with Trillian also. I have stopped using it because it does not seem to support mics and webcams. It does keep a neat consolidated list of buddies but it has too many limits. It does have a lot of smilies though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Indy 8 Posted May 27, 2003 You can get into the chatroom with Trillian if somebody who is already in there invites you. Otherwise, I just exit Trillian and log into AIM. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
