Yes, I have IM's and no, you may not add me. I had my ID posted for years with no problems, but when I started becoming "popular" with the XP Services Page, I was flooded with requests for permission to be on others lists and from jerks telling me I am pathetic, etc... Click the link at the top of this site to "E-Mail" me. That is about as instant as I allow.
As for IRC, I have never used it and never will. Several have reported to me about "others" using my name and claiming to be me. Presumably attempting to be "cool" and accepted. I guarantee it is not me and if you are the moderator of the channel, kick/ban them from your conversation. Even better, just ignore them. People starved for attention by pretending to be someone they are not hate that.
