I have been reading Yahoo’s blog for a few weeks now and I’ve seen people complaining about bots, booters, hackers, spammers, and various other things.

These are all major problems in chat, but even worse are the whiny control freaks.

You know the type I mean. They come into a room and decide what topic “they” want to chat about and then throw a fit if no one else wants to discuss it.

They tell off the whole room in text, and then start screaming on the mic till they sound like a mad dog foaming at the mouth.

My chat group has been plagued by several of these control freaks, including one who has been dogging us and has followed us from room to room just to wreak havoc and destroy any chance we have at a peaceful conversation with our friends.

He has openly admitted that he is going to continue to disrupt our chat until we agree to discuss what he wants to discuss and for the length of time he wants to discuss it.

He wants to decide what subjects are acceptable and when we will move from one subject to the next.

He is a self-proclaimed expert on EVERYTHING and has admitted to using us as psychological guinea pigs to provide him with subjects for his blog.

He continually follows us from room to room harassing us, insulting us, calling us names, and telling lies about us to new chatters.

Then he wonders why we don’t want to talk to him.
