Hmmmm. Difficult for me to decide. Maybe a certain day allowed for chat chat? I don't know.
It would be wonderful to have live healthy discussions on different topics. To me it's like we are
then all at a table. It can have some effect or "illusion"(?) of comradely" Or a cozy clique.
The benefit is the immediate response. The downside is what Federate pointed out.
Hmmmmm. I should sleep on this and meditate before I vote.

I'm with Fed, I do not want to see a chat room opened.

Which is hilarious in and of itself considering Federate was in the chatroom like 15 hours a day when we had one.

Re: Should HyeClub Forum have a Chat Room?

the fact that there have only been 12 vote on this poll, and now 15 posts is a testament to how dead this site has become. Was the chat mostly nonsensical? yes. Were there sometimes topics that were in there that should of been forum posts? yes.

But at least when there was a chat there was a sense of community and people had a reason to come here.

Even if we lost 10 good topics to the chat, it also helped keep many pointless topics away from the board. And if a forum post was good enough to be talked about in there, it drew users to it.

I understand that many users stopped coming because their school/work life got to busy but the truth is that activity (including forum posts)on this site started declining when accessibility to the chat became sporadic, and it's dropped even more so ever since it's been completely gone.

And as for whatever crap went down between anyone in the chat, well that's a very small con to wiegh against the pros. If users aren't mature enough to realize there not supposed to take an online chat seriously, that's their own problem and they can choose either not to chat, chat privately, or grow up.

And if for once a user actually becomes too unruly let a moderator do his or her job and just ban the user or something. Theworst thing that could happen with some sort of conflict in the chat room is a lost member or two, and since many more members than that have been lost since the decaying and eventual death of the previous chatroom I don't really see how losing a member or two due to some sort of "altercation" in the chat is worse.

With the old format the chatoom was always full...eversince this new update when the chatroom was available it was always dead.

I think people (including me) liked the old chat format.

Ara87--read your post and now that I come to think of it--you have a vaild point.
I too have noticed this site become an almost ghost town.

If something is not done soon to rev it back up-it will be as the famous movie was
titled: Gone With The Wind!

It's also summer and the summers tend to be a little slow.

I had agreed with Ara though... I think the chatroom was a good thing.
