AOL Instant Messenger is mine and my friends choice for our IM client. Occasionally, we use the "Warn" feature to try and kick each other off. The warning works as a percentage, and the closer to 100% you get the slower you can send messages. When you finally hit 100% if you get logged off you can't login again for the day. Normally we only get up to about 35% since you can only warn 3 times per user. Enorym, however, has taken the time to find out how to take advantage of the system. Below is what I found after returning from lunch. He had no less than 15 usernames to warn me with.
