I've been gone all this time, and I come back to find the chat room is more dead than ever. If anyone else has some time to kill, come on over. I'm bored out of my mind. :yawn:
Nobody using the chat room?

Thanks Rick, its good to be back. I had a feeling the situation may have been something along those lines. I know the chat room doesn't exactly have the best track record.

You mean the integrated instant messenger? I wouldn't know why, but its an interesting idea.
Personally, I like the setup of the chat box over at http://terraforums.com/forums/index.php. It has worked very well for that community for a long time. That said, there's really nothing wrong with the chat room here at all.

yeah the integrated instant messenger is awesome like Flytrapcare has it everybdy can talk to each other
I check the chat room quite frequently. I saw you in there recently, Andrew, but I think you weren't at your computer at the time. If I remember right, I think this forum used to have a thread in which people would post times to chat, or to let one another know that they are in the chat room. I could be thinking of another forum, though.
Maybe we could setup a thread like that? I'd be down for chatting whenever.
Welcome back, by the way.

Thanks Shorty. I think I must have walked away from my laptop briefly. I remember coming back and seeing that you had entered and left. Yeah, I do recall a thread here that people would bump if they were in the chat. We should definitely try and set something like that up, maybe an evening chat on the weekends? Two different threads, one sticky with the official meeting times and another one for people to bump if they are in the chat at another time. Or maybe it would be better to keep it all to one thread.
Just brainstorming.

I tried it out, can't seem to type in the type box, it's not working for me.
I like the idea of having official meeting times, perhaps even a few days a week. Sunday evenings would be a good time when I think most people would be home. Maybe we could have chats on a few weekdays as well. We could poll the forum members and see what the best days and times are for everyone. Having a pinned thread with the official times as well as another thread for people to post when they are online would be better, in my mind, than having one thread for both. It would be easier to find the times for the official community chats this way.
