ICQ ??

[Guest ncm2169]

One option in completing a profile here is to enter one's ICQ User ID.

 

For those of us middle-aged tech-challenged guys, what is that? :o

ICQ is an instant messaging system, like Yahoo Messenger, AOL Messenger, etc.

[Guest ncm2169]

Thanks, but that raises this question: why does the next option on the profile here talk about AOL Instant Messenger? (Not that I expect you to answer for this site's management).

Not speaking for the mgt, but they are different systems. Some people may be on one and others may be on the other, and some people may be on both. The userIDs are specific to each. Not like telephone numbers or email where the systems are interconnected and your number can be called from any system. It's sort of like providing one line for your aol email address and another for your Yahoo email address, etc.

All of the IM systems (ICQ, AOL, Yahoo, MSN, etc.) are decidedly separated. Intentionally. I have friends on AOL who aren't on MSN, and friends who are on Yahoo but not on MSN IM. As a result, I have several IM clients installed. My system suffers accordingly. I have too damn many IM clients installed.

 

There's a product called Trillian (http://www.ceruleanstudios.com/) that tries to bridge all of the IM products but it's a tough job because they all routinely lock out products like Trillian.

 

I wish they'd all just let Trillian bridge the gap, or would cooperate and just let us all chat. But they won't. They're all floundering for market dominance right now.

 

Why does the M4M signup form ask for and ID for each system? Because each system has its own ID scheme.

ICQ was developed by an Israeli company. It is a play on the words, I Seek You. The reason why you see so much AOL stuff is because they bought it years ago. And like everything AOL (Netscape, Moviefone Winamp, Mapquest and the rest)they just can't resist putting their logo and adverts everywhere.

 

At the time AIM had just gotten off the ground in the States but over 20 million people outside of the States used ICQ for Instant messaging.

 

In fact, AOL's beta version of 9.0 blends the two applications. Seems strange that they took so long to do so. I'm sure this will soon happen with AIM & ICQ.

RE: ICQ ??/ and French Masturbation

 

Since we're talking shop, its a perfect place for me, who did not suck my first cock yesterday, to ask, in the Escort Description line of a review, what does French Masturbation mean (can you do that here or only in Paris or on Paris or does Paris do it to you?), and what are some of those other popular descriptions of kissing and anal etc., mean. Have I been missing a lot of fun with cum on my tongue anyway? ;-)

 

Thanks in advance, trust me.

Sorry to pop the bubble of your fantasy, but happy to reassure you that you have not been missing out on anything. "French Masturbation" in the reviews is not "French Masturbation," it's "Kissing: French" "Masturbation: Xxxxxxx."

 

There are several such unintended combinations that develop in the "new" review format because of the spacing in the final form of the review, wih the :-plus-space being much larger than the space before the next item. For example, another review seems to be offering "Bi Masturbation," "Both Anal" (how many assholes does the guy have?), and "Top Oral" (maybe a comment on the quality of the oral). The powers that be should really do something about that.

ThankYFSCYou, you have helped me regain my self-respect. I thought I had missed something while having a three-way with two of Taboo's finest at the Goveneur or skipping from Stella's over to the Gaiety to pick out some lamb chops for later that night. Whatever.

 

Would that HooBoy take YFSC's suggestion to audit and clean up the mantoman descriptionsin theexcort reviews so that normal cocksuckers like me who love to suck the spent cock of twinks will know what's going on with the buddifuckers who share similar passions.

I beg to differ but there is such a thing as French Masturbation. That's when you get a cock jammed all the way down your gag-free deep throat, and you clamp down on it with your throat muscles and jerk & stroke that meat as if it were in your hand. At least, that's how I do it. }(

OK, Rick. Thanks for the info. Happy to bow (kneel?) to your experience and talents in that area.

 

But that's not what it is in the reviews, which is all I said. I didn't say there is no such thing. In the reviews it's just a "typographical illusion."

 

Another one that I saw yesterday was that a decidedly non-punk, non-twink escort has "Blue Hair." (from Eyes: Blue Hair: Xxxxx) :+

Was it my grandmother? She has said that she wants to break into the biz.

No sense commenting here. Daddy and Hooboy rarely read the MC.

 

But there's a section, Daddy's place, specifically for such suggestions.
