18 June 2005  Chatmag News.

The currently open Yahoo! chat rooms are full of irate Yahoo! chatters, demanding to know what has happened to their rooms.  Many groups maintained chat rooms within Yahoo, and with the closing of the user created chat rooms, users are migrating to the remaining Yahoo! operated chat rooms.

Chat rooms quickly became filled with "ad bots" and users have complained about being constantly messaged with advertisements.
The "ad bots" are not traditional Yahoo! advertisers, rather they are touting primarily porn or malware/trojan sites.

Other complaints include the inability to find friends from the users regular chat rooms, and unwanted messages of a sexual nature.
