Chat Rooms here at SMC

[Donnie Raines]

It appears that the chat room here is never used. I breeze through a number of time per day and never see any action there. Are there particular times of the week where conversation takes place in the chat room? Thanks.

Before thje ffp there used to be people there once in a while. One of the more frequent visitors was Ken S. Not hard to figure why he's not there now.

Donnie,

Looking at the connection logs, we actually have a large portion of our membership that connects to the chat room--just never at the same time.

I think we should schedule some more general chats for our members. If anyone has any suggestions on live chat topics, please post them here.

I have hit that site a number of times...and no one is ever there. I would go for a day set aside(say Wednesday night(or any night for that matter)) where we have topic to discuss and just let it fly. We are all adults here, so it should pretty much self govern it's self...though I suspect many of the monitors will take part any how. Rather then do this every week, maybe go twice a month.....just a thought.

When you enter the Chat Room you must join the SawMill Chat Channel to chat, possibly some people do not undersatnd that you must join the channel before you will see any names on the chat listing.

It would help if you could EASILY use the thing using Internet Explorer.

Terre,

We agree. There is, unfortunately, a trade off when it comes to Java-based programs and Microsoft's Java Runtime--a lot of inconsistencies.

The one we're using now works in more various browsers, and without locking up the text window during a long chat session. The trade off, of course, is that you have to type /join #SawmillCreek when you first enter, or click on the Channels button.
