What happened to MIRC?

I remember during my high school years, whenever I felt unhappy about something I would log into MiRC and rant to the world. Screaming, cursing, ranting to the the channels flooded with strangers about my frustrations and disappointments in life. Sometimes there are nice people who would console you, sometimes there are people who would just make fun of you and most of the time people just ignore you. 

I was again feeling frustrated about life today, so I googled MIRC to see if it still exist in the internet world. Wow, it came up top and it was so easy to download. Took me less than 2 minutes to get it up and running, but it's no longer the same. The channels are empty, some channels that used to be flooded with hundreds of people now only has less than 10 people. The Penang channel only has 2 people in there, I guess nobody uses MIRC anymore these days. 

How come people don't like to use MIRC anymore? It's a pretty simple idea, a platform for people to come together and get to know each other, of course also a wonderful place for perverts, sex hungry, pedophiles, rapists to target their victims. Isn't Tinder the same thing? 

Luckily I still have my blog, a place for me to come and rant about things not going my way in life. I try to focus less on negative issues, negative people, but it's not good enough. The universe doesn't want you to avoid these people, the universe wants you to learn how to live among them, live with them, work together with them. No matter where you go, there's one just around the corner. 

At age 28, I'm still struggling to break out from living in people's judgments perceptions. It's not difficult to know what is the right thing to do, what is the right way to feel towards something but knowing and doing is two different thing.
