Yahoo closes user created rooms in its chat service#

Yahoo closed a part of its Chat room service, where users can create their own rooms and will be displayed in the User Rooms section. And when you are entering into user-created rooms column, it warns that "the topics found here may be offensive ..." and if you agree only, it will allow you inside.

Yahoo Chat Warning : While we are trying to get into Yahoo User created rooms...

The problem started off is due to, KPRC-TV in Houston reported that the service was absued by people, means countless men tried to display pornography with children... 

That may be true, but what will happen to other Non-Sex content, useful rooms??? There were tons of room plying daily, and users get help like advise... Even I have given and I have got advise too....  I hope yahoo will change its stance towards this issue. They can put a word filter, etc., to handle the situation.....
