I go in there and check often Phil...but the conversations I have with myself are not too enlightening!
I still think the chat room is a great idea, but I do not know why it hasn't grown...after all, the people here begged for it and *caedes complied ;=)
Somewheres ... on some other thread ... a suggestion was put forth to schedule some nights/days formally for use of the chat room.
I seem to recall ... could be wrong ... that it was in the works?
A further suggestion (by yours truly :oP) ... was to highlight an artist and have them present for a chat to take questions from the other chat participants.
Uhm ... you up for it Phil? I know any one of us could learn a thing or three from you ... I would be more than happy to try ... try and play moderator.
Maybe post an email address in real time or use our PM system, have people submit questions ... and then send them to you via PM and let you choose/answer/comment, etc.?
Just a thought as this would be more of a 'special event', as opposed to a general chat session. Might go some ways towards formalizing a schedule though.
I don't know who the moderators are on the chat room, suffice to say in past experiences there needs to be at least one person with their finger hovering over the 'kick' button....
