Once upon a time, there was a very busy chat room in a site named English Club. One could see all kinds of life form in there - humans, half-humans, cyborgs, animals, flowers, and yes, also life forms from other dimensions such as fairies, ghosts, zombies, aliens, and many more.
Whenever these creatures entered this virtual world, their fingers or toes or wings or beaks instantaneously tapped their respective keyboards. Not a single sound was coming out from their voice boxes, but it seemed their virtual room was always filled with loud noises. When they needed to shout, they used capitalized words. When they felt like crying, they used a teary emoticon.
The room was like a flea market at its busiest, and the exchange of words and sentences could match the speed of a rolling slot machine. But along with every chatter’s type-written sentences were emotions and reactions of joy, sadness, innocence, flattery, and even outright stupidity.
This room was not only a place for fun and laughter, but also for argumentation and resolution of both serious and absurd issues. Here, friendships were built, broken and repaired.
Then came the day when their virtual universe suddenly disappeared. Feelings of dismay came in different ways. Questions were answered, but the chatters remained frantic.
Most of them used the “Latest Activity” page to show how frustrated they were. A fairy was incessantly shouting, “Anybody online?” One from the animal kingdom wrote an open Letter of Complaint. Some threatened to leave the site for good while others were patiently waiting in the background, hoping for the immediate restoration of their virtual universe.
In one corner, amidst the darkness in the virtual kingdom, this writer saw a bright light shining through, so she finished the story with the typical ending of once-upon-a-time stories: AND THE CHATTERS LIVED “ENGLISHLY” EVER AFTER.

But it presented analogies to make the concept of Bitcoin easier to grasp. Chatter were worried about future of virtual world (EC chat). now this era, sun is rising in the main chat room....
(i hope, there will be long shining day)
To everyone who took time to read my blog...my sincere thanks. To all the members who gave their comments…I really appreciate every word you wrote. To the tech guys who temporarily disabled the chat room…thanks for the inspiration.
Now, the chat room is back and running, so is the Kingdom with all its grandeur.
Nice depiction of the Chat Room Realities...and am able to understand your sorrow by reading in between your lines......Cheer up, My Friend....
And I do agree with Mr. Asif's quote saying "Good things always come out of dark times"...ofcourse, this change in EC has made all the Chat Room Genius to come out of the Room and mingle with others and make others enjoy by blogging....
In such scenario, Tara you'r not right, I personally felt that its already came out, now a day you can see that brilliant writer who always busy in chat room and dosn't writes Blogs and took part in discussion, now they'r writing Blog and write something in comment box and we enjoying great piece of writing.
