Let me introduce to you...
...a little known feature called the "CHAT ROOM".
Guess what? It doesn't bite!
So, how do you use this chat room, you ask? EASY!
-Generally, there is a tool bar on the bottom of your browser window.
-The easiest way to keep the chat running smoothly is to use the "pop out" window button (the one that has a small square turning into a bigger square). This will open it in a brand new window!
That way, you won't have to reload the chat each time you visit a new page.
-Some days you may experience "Chat Lag". Symptoms of chat lag include: "frozen chat" when the room is completely active and/or delayed posting of messages you type and send.
To fix this, log out of the chat and log back into it. Whether you close and reopen the window is up to you.
-You can also privately message any member in the chat room. All you need to do is click on their name and select "Private Chat". When you do that, it opens a new tab in the chat window, and it should "flash" anytime you receive a new message from that member.
--If you don't know who any person is, you can click on their name on the members list in the chat, and view their profile, just by clicking "view profile". Easy enough, right?
-This chat room feature is awesome! It'll help you get to know more people, and you'll find out things you might not normally know just through chatting in the forums. We don't bite, much.

ALSO NOTE:
There is a person icon with a red or green spot next to it. If it is red, you are "off line" and not showing up in the chat room members list. If it is green, the members in the chat room can see your name listed.
If you do not want to appear as "on line", click the icon. Answer the question, and you'll be good and "off line". Also, you will not be able to read anything in the chat room until you log back in as online and open the window.

Please, do not try to burn bridges before they are built. Take the time to get to know one another before you decide that you want to make everyone hate you. It's never pretty, okay?

AS SPOTTED IN THE CHAT ROOM:
Chat 101:: Step 2. Once past the greeting of choice, ask a question, like:'How are you lot? You lazy lurkers!' (Introduce some mild insult if you are feeling a bit anti-social, though, be warned it might lead to a LOL; punch or further silence.)

Hahaha. (Chat 101).
Maybe I'll give it a try. I dont know. Any luck getting more people in?

Yeah! I've noticed some new people chatting when I was off line (it saves messages up to a certain capacity, so if there is little to no activity, you don't miss much in the day).
and we got reverend in there, and he seems to be enjoying himself.
feel free to stop in!

Aw, thank you!
I'm glad you came by. Let me tell you, it's a lot easier to get to know someone by chatting, rather than the forums!

Chat 102: Step 3. Remember what folk are doing or going to do from day-to-day and ask about it another day. You can also try sharing links and images of things they are interested in too in chat.
But be aware that there was a bug with photo links from this site where the Colon and Question Mark in the link gets changed to a smiley breaking the link. :(
If all else fails, hang around for at least ten mintues - folk can be busy and slow to reply at times on chat.

Know what is really sad? I can remember almost all the big chats we've had and I don't know what the HELL that step 2 came from. lmao
