This email I got explains EXACTLY why I hate the majority of AIM users:



These rules were compiled to ensure the best possible experience on AOL Instant Messenger (AIM) for all parties involved. They are meant to be a guideline for which all users are to follow to prevent frustrations, mocking sessions, and tears. Follow these simple tips and you will never have a problem.



*Edit* These were way too LONG! So I put the best ones a few posts down:

#6. No one cares how angry you are at your bf/gf/parents/relatives/self, so don?t write about it in your away message and/or profile. I don?t feel like going on to see something like; "I'm ****ing sick of everyone. Leave me alone. No sex for Scott! Love always ~ Princess"

#10. Don't use neon colors for your font. Green highlight with neon yellow is not acceptable. It hurts our eyes. We won't talk to you. Plus, it's a little immature don't you think?

#12. LOL!, LMFAO!, LOL!!!, LMAO!!, and HAHA!! Should be used with discretion. Something needs to be super ****ing hilarious for you to actually use those. No, you know what? Don't use them at all. Ever.

#18. TyPiNg LiKe ThIs Is NoT AlLoWeD. i HaTe wHeN pEoPlE tYpE lIkE tHiS.


#19. DO NOT TYPE IN ALL CAPS. It means you're shouting. Once in a while you can emphasize a single word in all caps. (I.E. "That was ALL she did.") All caps may not be followed by excessive use of punctuation. (See Rule 13.)

#25. Speaking of skills, don't spell it with a Z. (I.E. Skillz.)

Don't spell anything with a "z'. Chances are, you're not black if you're spelling words with a z. Black people are much too cool to be spelling words with a z. You're not a homie, playa, or a bad ass when you spell your words with a z. So don't do it.

#31. If you haven't IMed a buddy for about an hour and you're signing off, don't say goodbye. Obviously, there's a reason you two aren't talking. The conversation is done.
It's over, its Oprah. Your buddy could be moving on to more important things like porn or more interesting people, just sign off. We don't mind, honest. We've already closed your IM and pretty soon, we're probably gonna block you too.

#37. This isn't TRL. Please, no more shoutouts. No one cares who your friends are. In fact, if you have shoutouts, you probably don't have too many friends. Don't go trying to prove that you have friends. Half of the people in your shoutouts section probably hate you anyway. That kid Joey in your math class who gave you his SN? Yea, he doesn't care. In fact, he already blocked you.



#38 Do not reveal your life story to someone on AIM whom you have known for less than a week. Actually, this applies to real life too. Guess what? We don't care about your problems. That's why they're called YOUR problems. In order to complain to someone about anything other than HW, such as your life, you must have known them at least two months and have already greeted them as seen in rule #1.

Those are great :) I use AIM all day for work, but other than that, yeah it tends to be anoying. Those things you just described happen more often than not when talking to new people. :shrug:

AOL users in general are usually morons, hence the reason they are using AOL.

As a general computing rule of thumb, I tend to avoid any software that begins with A, ends in L, and has an O in the middle. :nono:
