Guest guest Posted September 3, 2001 Report Share Posted September 3, 2001 Well, I went to Talk City and filled in all the TOO personal information they wanted just so I could enter their chat room without tellng me FIRST that I would need to download their software to view it. I am PISSED! I know it's no one's fault on this group, of course, so please don't feel that I'm pointing fingers. But, I wish there was a place you could report sites like that. I think it should be illegal for them to ask for your personal info without first warning you that you will have to download their software to use their product. I do NOT download new software onto my computer for that kind of thing. I prefer my hard drive to be as clean as possible and this just infuriates me that I can't go to the chat room after doing all that. I am soooo annoyed!

Guest guest Posted September 3, 2001 Report Share Posted September 3, 2001 Tracey, I'm not a big fan of Talk City either, but it is one of the few chats that is WebTV friendly. Maybe you got into something I didn't, but I didn't have to download anything. And as far as personal information is concerned, I wrote that my first name was maria and my last name was " k " and I gave them a bogus everything else, just like I do with all the non-shopping sites. What are they gonna do? How do they know if I'm lying? Yahoo thinks I live on 1st Ave....and there is no 1st Ave in this town! = Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talk City is irritating as all hell, though. alyssa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 5, 2001 Report Share Posted September 5, 2001 Hi ! That's a good idea. I should have thought of that. I may try it again next time but I could not get that page to show up and they kept asking me to download their software so I'm assuming that's why I couldn't see the page. I refused to download the software. Thanks for the suggestions! Tracey in San Diego > Tracey, > I'm not a big fan of Talk City either, but it is one of the few chats > that is WebTV friendly.
