    Default Chat SUNDAY night - 7pm (PDT)

    We are thinking about having weekly chats. If you'd like to attend, what day is best for you?
    We all imagine ourselves the agents of our destiny, capable of determining our own fate. But have we truly any choice in when we rise, or when we fall, or does a force larger than ourselves bid us our direction. Is it evolution that takes us by the hand, does Science point our way, or is it God who intervenes keeping us safe.

    So much struggle for meaning, for purpose. And in the end, we find it only in each other. Our shared experience of the fantastic. And the mundane. The simple human need to find a kindred, to connect. And to know in our hearts... that we are not alone.

    Default Re: CHAT IN SJC AT 10PM EASTERN

    It does seem a shame that chat doesn't get used more here. I used to open the chat window and let it float so I could keep surfing the site and still have the chat active and I have never run into anyone on there. I think it's a good place to get to know our poster's on a more realistic level.

    I thought instead of a day maybe a window of opportunity to expect people to be in chat, making it more of a community lobby then a conference room. I for one know I would love to talk to a few of my peer's in an effort to get to know them better. Beside's no one time is going to be accommodating to everyone so some people are going to be left out. Considering that a majority of poster's here are involved with the industry and I would assume work night's ( I do understand there are day shift's too ) making it during the night time exclude's quite a few folk's. If it does become popular, which I hope it does, There will probably be a need for a moderator. I would assume it would be fertile ground for some very heated debate's.

    Default What would be the hours?

    I work almost every night, so nights are out for me. Daytime chats would be really convenient.

    Wow. I am mixed too. I work the hospital evenings, but not too late, unles they thro me in the ED.
    Days i am doing phone, and will have to be "coming & going" alot, which is kinda rude. I will pop in for as long as i can, since my scheduels run days into early evenings now.

    PS i threw Sunday in because it sounds the best for me, glad i did, it's seems like the best vote so far.

    CrazyBob,very valuable point.

    A moderator or "chatroom bot" if you will to keep the heat low! LOL! Akin to chat rooms available on the net there is always someone keeping peace, watching expletives or someone looking for spammers etc etc.

    Never explain yourself to anyone, because the person who likes you doesn't need it and the person that dislikes you won't believe it.

    Default Re: Wanna Chat? What day is best for you?

    Ideally, I'd like to have the chatroom always being used, the thing is we'd have have to have a flow of about 6 new people every hour or so too keep it going and a moderator. I don't think that's possible right now...though I could be wrong.

    Crazybob mentioned that he makes it "float", that can be done right now. After you're in, click the float button near the top. It then detatches. If people really are interested in getting to up and running, you can detatch the chat and leave it open while you are online. That will make meetings more common.

    Also, if you don't like going to the chatroom from the web page here (or can't because you have webTV, i appliance, or other), you can access the chatroom with any IRC client (mIRC, vIRC, ICQ, Trillian, etc.). It actually makes it easier to use long term...but it's harder for newbies to get started.

    If you are gonna use a client, here's what you need to know:
    Server: irc.icq.com
    Channel: #stripper_web_forums (or #stripclub_junkie_forums depending on what you're looking for)

    A client is just a program that you run to access the chat. For more info check http://www.newircusers.com they explain what IRC is and how to use it with any type of computer. If you're new to IRC I'd also suggest using Visual IRC as your client, it is easy to use, http://www.visualirc.net/beta.php/

    But I know for some it is just easier to use the chat link in the forum.

    The rooms aren't the same for both sites, though I could set up one to mirror the other...meaning you'd see any action in one in the other. For now it would be best to just get the action going in one room as we're already spread thin enough.

    As for a moderator, I can't do it right now and I don't know anyone who can (if you're interested, let me know). I have installed a bot which helps, but it can't tell when people are fighting. If the room ever got popular, I could make several people half ops which would give them some control.

    I'll be in the chat today just to see how many people stop by and to install somethings...feel free to say hello, though I may be away from the computer.

    Maybe we could have a few different times and days. Like say 2 or 3 a week. Have one be on a day time and the other 2 at night - or vice versa. That way most people could be a part of it, or try to schedule themselves around it if they really wanted to chat. Maybe every week have a different schedule and post it on the main page where you log in. Just an idea.
    It's better to be looked over, than overlooked.

    I can get on about any day during the late afternoon, but Monday and Tuesday, I can talk about any time.

    One thing that I do notice on the main page is that there always seem to be three or four people logged in at any given time. Granted, we're probably spending a lot of that time reading threads and typing responses, but I see that as an opportunity to start a chat.

    I do think that we should all check the chat room occasionally and just see if someone is in there. Done by enough people, we might be able to get the ball rolling enough to not have to schedule anything.

    I picked up mICR as a chat server so I can monitor the room while I'm on the puter. I fire it up and minimize it into my toolbar and set the option's to blink when someone start's to chat so I don't have watch it and if someone enter's and sez Hi it blink's, so I know someone's there.

    So far it's been really fun getting to know everyone. I hope it keep's catching on. Sunday and Monday where promising with 5 to 7 people on at once and fun was had by all.

    CHAT THIS SUNDAY NIGHT: I'll try for 7pm forum time (pacific daylight)
    We all imagine ourselves the agents of our destiny, capable of determining our own fate.
