Hey guys, I read msgs re: our chatroom. IMHO(IN my humble opinion) folks DONT know about this!!!<br />Can we have an ADVERTISED msg. bout when, what times(PST, MST, CST EST) we could have groups based on LOCATION in U.S. and abroad? I KNOW folks would get in on this! Just for my info, is this divided in tech/nontech/boats/etc categories? Or just a general chat? Please MORE details! I personally want to know when to chat about WHAT, dont want to "break" any rules! Someone let me know and I'll post if you guys let me know how. In my mind a forum where we just bs about geez, family, boat, fishing,guys wanting to talk to guys in same "boat" whatever, just need informative direction! WE ARE A GREAT BUNCH OF GUYS/GALS that have awesome info, life experiences, that we could share that would HELP lots folks in REALTIME(beats waiting for msg. response 12 hrs later)! Oh and also I just setup my wife via microphone to do chats that way! Cheap and immediate! Thanks as usual, Heinz

Re: CHATROOM!!!! folks need to know about this!

Hi Heinz,<br />The chatroom is a free chatroom from Yahoo.<br />iboats doesn't run it.<br />SBN set it up, and I believe from previous postings, that anyone is welcome.<br />Don't think there are any "rules" either, just don't pick on Ladyfish or Bassy.<br /><br />Check out this post, then click the link to sign yourself up.<br /><br /> http://www.iboats.com/cgi-bin/ubb/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=20;t=002308 <br /><br />Best time to catch other chatters seems to be 6pm till midnight, eastern time. But some drop in at other times of the day.

Yes you would carpy.<br />Just go here to join my friend.<br /> http://groups.yahoo.com/group/iboatsmembers/ <br />You will get a couple automatic messages from me, but I will approve you after getting them on my end.

I look you gentlemen up sometimes and you have been perfect gentlemen. PC is in the shop right now, so I'll be seeing you soon. Good thing I can still get my iboats fix here at school. Hee hee. Have a good weekend and Happy Valentines Day to all you boat and fishin' lovers.<br /> And Roscoe, you can pick on me anytime. Just as long as I can pick back. Hee hee. <br />Bassy :D

Re: CHATROOM!!!! folks need to know about this!

Don’t know if this is of any interest to any of you. It is from another Yahoo! group I read, but here it is:<br />--------<br />This applies to all Yahoo Groups <br /><br />Dear Friends, <br /><br />Yahoo is now using something called "Web Beacons" to track Yahoo Group users around the net and see what you're doing and where you are going - similar to cookies. Take a look at their updated privacy statement: <br /><br /> http://privacy.yahoo.com/privacy/us/pixels/details.html <br /><br />About half-way down the page, in the section "Outside the Yahoo! Network", you'll see a little "click here" link that will let you "opt-out" of their new method of snooping. I strongly recommend that you do this. <br /><br />Click below to opt out<br /> http://pclick.yahoo.com/p?optout <br /><br />Once you have clicked that link, you are opted out. Notice the "Success" message the top the next page. <br /><br />Do it with each one of your web browsers.<br /><br />Be careful because on that page there is a "Cancel Opt-out" button that, if clicked, will *undo* the opt-out.
