Do We Want an MLU Chatroom?
 
The suggestion has been brought up. I can't run one off MY server, but there is a good company out there which specializes in this which I can use... but you have to have Java enabled on your machine.

Do we want a chatroom, or is this forum sufficient?

Vote, please... this will be open until next weekend...

Phil,

I hadn't even thought of the idea until several brought it up... time zones CAN be a problem, coordinating the Aussies with the North Americans and the Brits/Europeans... you're right, it makes no sense if the majority can't play, and we'd have to single out a particular time once or twice per week to-start to see how it went.

Comments welcome, everyone.

It's probably worth a try
 
Not big on chatrooms myself, but if it could be set up and tried without too much hassle it's probably worth a bash.

Nope
 
I think the current Forum is sufficient.:)

Chatroom
 
I'm with Gordon - if it happens I'd give it a try but you'd probably miss a lot of the Aussies and others in the Southern Hemisphere.

Chatroom
 
Hi Geoff - I find I have enough to read just on the forum and combined with my research for replies I find this enough. The whole site provides me with more than enough overt and/or covert contact with the other members. Besides which, how much more do you want to take on. You would have to be "flat out like a lizard drinking" at the moment anyway.

I Like `AS IS'
 
HI!

I for one, think the current set up works
great as is. We have private messages which
work for when people don't have the time to `chat' but want to send a private message.

There are always the chat programs available
outside of this site, for people to use and chat:)
AOL for one...you know the one...the one with the little yellow figure:D

My vote is...Don't fix it if it works:D

Take care.

Count me in. I reckon there are always times when you need a little immediate sympathetic help from a like thinking person.

Thanks for your comments, everyone. Consider the issue closed.
