It's so hard to find anyone online at the same time, willing to talk on the shoutbox....the shoutbox has lots of Hi's, and Anybody here?s which never turn into real conversations...so I kind of think that if there were multiple chatrooms, it would only lessen the likelihood of people actually talking to each other on any of them.Hmmm, I'd like to give it a go. Im totally happy with what we have at the moment. Perhaps the only thing would be more than one live chat facility? Shoutbox is great, but it'd be fun to have chat room or private/group chats perhaps? Im just thinking of the special interest group section which would benefit from live chats....
Dont ask for much do I?
1.If this were a huge forum, like the one we don't talk about, then multiple chatrooms would make sense.
But given the small size and tightness/closeness of this community, this one shoutbox works best.
Plus, the one shoutbox turns into opportunities to talk to and get to know people one might otherwise never talk to.
Plus, there is a sense of closeness between the members here, unlike what is the case on other sites. If people were to be separated by being pulled in different directions by multiple chatrooms, that might not happen.
2. Plus, as Droopy said, that might lead to less posting on the actual forums, In my opinion that would be a mistake, and much richness and diversity of thought would be lost.
3. Anyway, the one special interest that draws us all here is a special interest in AS. Right? And that's something we all share in common.
