Stupid IM bots

[sagelink]

Who has trouble with these online bots that IM you and tend to crash your AIM/Yahoo/MSN messenger? There is this one called "pigofthewig" man I felt stupid even accepting his message.

I've never run into one, at least on AIM. I have on ICQ a couple times, however. I've tried to find out how to make one, but I've never had any results.

Have you ever been targeted by a human for advertising on any chat medium? I used to get a lot on AIM, but then it stopped. I occasionally get some on ICQ, and I always try to screw with them, but eventually they stop replying, or I figure out that they're robots. It's fun for a while though.

Yea, I haven't had one on AIM in a long time. When I had ICQ (a long time ago), I was solicited by many supposed young woman with webcams or whatever. It was a good supply of pornography at the very least. :shrug:

NEver had this happen to me. But I do like to mess with bots like Zola and SmarterChild and see what kind of funny responses I can get out of them.

For example:
Saxman10885: Can I see your boobs?
ZolaOnAOL: Where do you want me to show you?
Saxman10885: Right here, on the IM screen.
ZolaOnAOL: Understood. Oh there.
