I really hate Yahoo. When they bought Geocities they changed my user name that had 64 in it to 63 automatically. What a stupid number. Then, because I didn't log into it within a certain time frame, they up and deleted all my content. It was the first (and only, really, besides school requirement...) personal website I ever built, in 6th grade. It had all the cool images, gifs, midis I had gathered on the internet and I even created custom gifs for it. I even copy pasted some javascript code to make my gifs animate when moused over.

Even though I only used the email account they automatically set up for me for junk registrations (my main mail was already @home/attbi/comcast before they bought geocities, then gmail when that was created), I ended up making a second yahoo account with a name that wasn't lame (which I still used for junk registrations, and other random things, but moreso than the one automatically created). One day the password on that second email account suddenly changed. I used the same password on both the accounts for years with zero sign of infiltration. I still continue to use accounts tied to the one with the mysteriously changed password. I did everything I could to get that one back with no luck. Maybe I was compromised by some hacker? I do recall during my efforts being asked by yahoo support something along the lines of "is this your main account?". There was never anybody that I could talk to, only text support, and most of my attempts/ticket submissions went ignored. Maybe they think I'm a hacker.

In the end, nothing but bitter feelings toward Yahoo for me.
