I recently went into a game room in yahoo (graffitti: apples and oranges) and I noticed in the lobby area they have people (annoying people) in there with names which doesn’t show up in the box for you to click to view profile. And also id’s with symbols for ie only: [sicko] or even spaces between names ie: hot and heavy. How do they do that?? These same people who has similar names are spamming the lobby area which makes it hard for players to join due to the lag from spamming. Just curious ……thanks
well..
before 1999 Yahoo used to allow ppl to make ids however they want even with long _____ in name even symbols like (!@#$%^&*()+={}:. etc) in yahoo id. but now yahoo have stopped it, so u cant get or create ids like that anymore. And there are too many programs to give lag on the games chat roomI hang in there a lot myself. A few months back a guy from pool made a super scroller, it scrolls the same thing over and over, and they are only in the room for like one second, not enough time to let you iggy them. This program only works because of the /open command, and yahoo needs to get rid of it. If you are in any yahoo games lobby, and type /open, it will d/c from the room momentarily, then you will come back in. I dunno how the program is working because now when u do /open it doesn’t take u back to the room, it says error logging into server.
To ignore these people, you need to do it on your messenger, goto Login – Privacy Settings – then Add them to your ignore list then apply them. They won’t be on ignore til u refresh the game room, and also possibly messenger as well.
As far as people with weird ids, these are the ids that crackers like myself target, ids you can’t make any more, space ids, symbol ids underspace – . and number ids.

That id is actually [warped] and any id that has [ ] in it, will show as invisible when they talk in a game room lobby or table. Instead of seeing “warped: blah blah” it will say “: blah blah” when u click on his name, you can still ignore him. I know this warped character very well, have argued with him a lot, he gets all philosophical about arguing on the internet, it’s pretty funny. Another guy in there has a space id, and these ids are really really common, theres thousands and thousands of them, theres prolly less then 30 ids with [ ] in them. People on these types of ids have either cracked them, traded for them, bought them, ripped them from other crackers, trojaned people for them, or even begged for them.
If you switched to another room, i doubt you would see these kinds of people in it. They tend to stick to the same rooms.
