Chatters are in chat. Yahoo can send messages to chatters via a very simple software mod. Yahoo deliberately refuses to do so either because their programmers are dolts (which I don't believe), or because the the programming staff has proposed such a thing, and in "meetings", management refuses to spend the money. How much money are we talking about? Chickenfeed. Get Yahoo to send us broadcasts warnings that chat is going off-line. I'll suggest a format: Yahoo Chat: Yahoo chat will be going off line in 1 hour for scheduled maintenence. We will will be back at XPM PST. Thanks. Yahoo Chat: Yahoo chat will be going off line in 30 minutes for scheduled maintenence. We will will be back at XPM PST. Thanks. Yahoo Chat: Yahoo chat will be going off line in 15 minutes for scheduled maintenence. We will will be back at XPM PST. Thanks. Yahoo Chat: Yahoo chat will be going off line in 5 minutes for scheduled maintenence. We will will be back at XPM PST. Thanks. Yahoo Chat: Yahoo chat will be going off line in 1 minute for scheduled maintenence. We will will be back at XPM PST. Thanks. Bob Frank –

Chickenfeed.

Get Yahoo to send us broadcasts warnings that chat is going off-line. I’ll suggest a format:

Yahoo Chat: Yahoo chat will be going off line in 1 hour for scheduled maintenence. We will will be back at XPM PST. Thanks.

Most of us that aren't noobs...know that Yahoo will never do away with the bots HELLO how do you figure Yahoo is free ;) and "maintenance" is always a word they use when they really mean to say..."we are now going to screw up your chat experience for the next month while we attempt to pull our heads out of our butts because we have nothing better to do."
