Why can't I get in chat rooms?

Still cant get into chat rooms why?

• I have reinstalled the messenger I can see the yahoo chat room but cant get into one then when I sign out the yahoo chat rooms disappear ....so frustrating

• Answer:

  After you get logged into yahoo messenger look up at the top of it you will see Messenger , Contacts, Actions ,Help. Click on messenger then down about half way click on Yahoo! Chat and then Join room. That will open a new window with all the chat room categories which will be on the left side and the room listings will be on the right side. Lets say you want to go to a music room? you just find Music on the left side and click on it that will make all the available music rooms show up on the right side. Then maybe you want to try one of the Rock rooms,so just click on the little + sign and that will expand and show all the rooms that are under Rock. Double click on which ever room you want to go into. A small window will pop up with some numbers and letters that is called the captcha screen, fill it out and hit enter. If for some reason that don't show up just look up at the top of the chat room window and you will see a big long blue colored link, click on that and it will open a web page captcha screen for you to fill out. Fill it in hit enter or whatever it is and you will be officially in a chat room. If you want to change rooms just hit the Chat button at the top of the room window and repeat the selection process and join another room. Must be 18 or older to enter chat rooms! Hope this helps
