Petition for a Chat Room

[Dan the Man]

After successfully gaining a Sports forum, what about a chat room?

All those in favour.....

[Smash]

Oh I do love a good petition.

AYE.

[Alistair]

I propose you change thesite's name to TheSiteCooperative.org <IMG alt="image" SRC="biggrin.gif" border="0">

Oooh yeh, we could have some good fights in a chat room. Hey, I should have stayed as the moderator and agreed to this!

[Whowhere]

I already know what their plans for a chatroom are <IMG alt="image" SRC="biggrin.gif" border="0">

Come on Susie! There's a good girl.

Spill the proverbial beans!

Pleeeeeaaaaaaase... (I'm pulling my cutest face with 'poky-out' bottom lip).

Ah yes, think of the opportunities to shout at annoying newbies! We'll soon distinguish the wheat from the chaff with a chatroom!

ah, but with time you wont need a chat room for that

[katchika]

Don't understand!!!
I hate chat rooms, you just get dumb people saying a/s/l and press 555 if you want sex. If the site are going to have a chat room is it going to be moderated? Or only open at certain times?

I'm with KT! <IMG alt="image" SRC="smile.gif" border="0">

here here, a chat room could see the death of discussion boards <IMG alt="image" SRC="frown.gif" border="0"> and you do get some weird people on them.

Obviously you've been in far kinder chat rooms - in most of the one's I've used we say "press ALT and F4 keys, together, if you want sex and/or naked pictures" and then we have the room all tidy again. <IMG alt="image" SRC="wink.gif" border="0">

[the_Paranoid_bunny]

it seemed to work ok last time.

i have the new one 99.9% ready, but it doesn't look like you'll be needing my services anymore. <IMG alt="image" SRC="frown.gif" border="0">

*disappears*

[All For None And All For Me]

MSN chat or Yahoo based are the best ones I've seen

[J]

I think a chat room's a great idea!

*Hopes so*

This may sound stupid but why don't you get regulars to moderate the chat site? We can be there to answer peoples questions and keep things nice? We know TheSite better than anyone. And we are free <IMG SRC="smile.gif" border="0" ALT="icon">

[wuckFit]

A chat room would rock for topics but would thesite board not die on its feet if that were the case?????

[TheKingOfGlasgow]

I say yay to a chatroom. It would be great to be able to talk in realtime, and talking on the boards (not that I've ever done it) I reckon is longwinded etc. C'mon mods, answer to the demands of the baying crowd and give us a chatroom! Please? Pretty please? Pretty please with suger on top? Pretty please with suger on top and a cherry? Pretty please with...you get the idea ; <IMG SRC="smile.gif" border="0" ALT="icon">

this'll be the death of these boards <IMG SRC="frown.gif" border="0" ALT="icon">

Hmmm, I don't think so. I think the chatroom should be only open at certain times of day, like when there is a moderator about or at say lunchtimes when people fancy a chat.
