Abstract

Negotiating between two or more online computer users, including a first user and a second user, with the objective of engaging in a mutually desirable online activity (e.g., instant messaging, online games, chat rooms, e-commerce) in an environment having specified characteristics, can be accomplished by (a) issuing a proposal message from the first user to the second user, the proposal message specifying the particular environmental characteristics desired by the first user; (b) issuing a first response from the second user to the first user, the response comprising an accept message indicating agreement with the proposal, a reject message indicating disagreement with at least one aspect of the proposal, or a counterproposal offering to change one or more aspects of the proposal; (c) if the second user issues a counterproposal, issuing a second response from the first user to the second user, the second response comprising an accept message indicating agreement with the counterproposal, a reject message indicating disagreement with at least one aspect of the counterproposal, or another counterproposal offering to change one or more aspects of the counterproposal; and (d) repeating steps (b) and (c) until acceptance, rejection or cancellation occur, cancellation representing a withdrawal of a proposal or counterproposal. A user's misbehavior during a negotiation session can be objected to by others, thus potentially affecting the user's ability to access system resources.
