Chat rooms were so popular back then in 1990s and 2000s, I still remember the experience even though at that time I could only feel a little bit at the end of its popularity in the early 2010s. Somehow I still use some of the remaining chat rooms from 1990s and 2000s like Chat-Avenue or Paltalk.

Why fix what we can nostalgically complain about? πŸ“‘

The words "black friday" in red against a black background. "The RPG" is written on a red sales tag underneath. A red blood splatter is in the background.
