Just out of vague curiousity, do any of you guys and gals use that chat room on the Hatrack website?
 
Posted by Netstorm2k (Member # 2279) on :
 
I guess not.
Or, I'm the only one online reading these things right now.
Oh well. I guess I'm just bored.

I believe it has been used in the past, but those were specifically scheduled events for which people wanted to participate "realtime".

Oh, bummer.
Of course, in a way, I can understand. It's hard to really put a thought out there, complete and polished, with all the right words in all the right spots, when you have a little slot window the size of a cigarette to write in. Plus the fact that everyone seems to get distracted rather easy as it is.
They don't need help from a scrolling text window. (Grin)

I've been here nine months and I've never seen it used.

We've had some talk once or twice about having some scheduled chats, either here or on some other IM.

I, personally, think it would be fun. I just can't get enough of some of you guys!

Oh, only "some" of us. I see how it is.

You KNOW I can't get enough of YOU, Survivor! (Wink, wink, nudge, nudge)
 
Posted by Survivor (Member # 213) on :
 
Now the winking and nudging is making me nervous...(for some odd reason the line making it's way through my head is "Oh, only spoken for! You had me scared.").

I know that I actually did participate in a chat room event at some point in the past, but I can't remember whether it was just a rehearsal for a later event (which I probably missed) or whether it was an event in itself. It was a long time ago, though.
