Counterpoint: I am too young to understand this technology, it scares me, and I am unwilling to learn.

Then you can stay on forums that needs to be refreshed, or uuuh.. isn't there a proprietary IRC like thing for young people, something like Disco? Or Discom. Or Discord? Apparently it's much like IRC but without the freedom.

I think that's always been the allure of IRC in modern internet times... Keeps the normal people away and makes it a place that's more exclusive to nerds. It's scary, you have to learn a few things, has it's own etiquette and you can't just use it from any phone.
