Travis Posted October 10, 2009 Report Share Posted October 10, 2009 The subject of a chat room came up in another thread. As of now, we currently don't have one. But, if there's enough interest, I could certainly add one. We'd have to figure out the logistics of it, but right now I just wanted to gauge the interest. Waddya think? You guys want a chat room? I've added a quick poll, go ahead and cast your vote. Any thoughts or feedback are also welcome. amazingkevin and OCtoolguy 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Messman Posted October 10, 2009 Report Share Posted October 10, 2009 I like the idea. I like to bounce ideas off of folks live when I have a project coming up, it tends to help with my creative process. I also like joking around and getting to know folks as well.

r6239cleo Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 Would use it sometime, have used them before, however, sometime it's just overwhelming to try to keep up. I guess it's a age thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Travis Posted October 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 I'd be careful. The women scrollers may outnumber the male scrollers. With those odds, you might not survive very long. Wilson142 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Travis Posted October 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 The staff has been talking about the possibilities of adding a chat room. We're still working on the details. But for now, we're leaning to a scheduled chat once a week. If we do this, what day of the week would work the best? What time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grampa Posted October 15, 2009 Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 For me it would be best on friday or sunday ......Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frieke Posted October 15, 2009 Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 For me it can be on every day of the week, but could you think at the people from other countrys? I think when i finished working, most of you just come out of bed( in America) and i think thats why i almost never see someone else online , isn't it? So maybe on a sunday so whe can chat with everybody ( there must be a time of the day nobody sleeps?) Have a funny day Frieke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadylady0447 Posted October 15, 2009 Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 A weekly chat session sounds like a great idea, Travis. Its always been hard to pick a day and time so that everyone can join in if they feel like it. Whatever works for the majority is OK with me. I'll pop in to chat if I can make it and I'll try real hard not to sound like a chicken, AMAZINGKevin! LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amazingkevin Posted October 16, 2009 Report Share Posted October 16, 2009 Daytime ,nite time ,graveyard shift time.anytime.I'll make time to go to this one.The words used ,are what keeps me or breaks me from chat rooms .Looks like travis has good club standards that i approve of highly .If the same rules applie as for our club it will be an honar to have a seat at.all i favor iiiiiii.The amatuer radio club i use't to belong to was more of a party party place than shop talk,Really reminded me of cb radio which is very low on my scale.the telescope club i was in was a little better but the hours didn't work for the working class.the outings were so far away too.This village thing should sounds tempting.i give it my best shot!

OCtoolguy Posted March 30, 2020 Report Share Posted March 30, 2020 I use the private message a lot. A chat room would be neat. We could organize regular chat sessions for anybody who wanted to participate. scrollingforsanity 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim McDonald Posted March 30, 2020 Report Share Posted March 30, 2020 On the old SSW magazine board, we used to have a Monday night chat. Even though it was the middle of the night, we would get some European visitors and the folks in Australia and New Zeland would chime in after their breakfasts. Monday was general chat, but I think the intarsia folks tried one on another night. OCtoolguy and scrollingforsanity 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scrollingforsanity Posted March 30, 2020 Report Share Posted March 30, 2020 I hunt and peck also on the keyboard but would give it a try. OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
new2woodwrk Posted March 30, 2020 Report Share Posted March 30, 2020 What is it with all these years old thread resurrections? LOL Anyway, my vote would be for a voice chat room. No typing that way - but either way, I'm good OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clayton717 Posted March 30, 2020 Report Share Posted March 30, 2020 I like the idea. We used to have one and it was set up for a specific day and time (and time zone). There also used to be a chat tab that notified if anyone was in the room waiting.For me I think Sunday evening would work best.

Travis Posted March 30, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2020 Holy cow, someone was digging in the archives! This thread is 11 years old! We haven't had a chat room in a few years. Chat rooms are incredibly resource heavy and was taxing the server too much. I might be able to find a different solution. Maybe using Discord or something. I'll poke around a bit and see what I can find. OCtoolguy, new2woodwrk and scrollingforsanity 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
