The idea of an unmoderated chat with those I understand to be regulars in your Skype chat doesn't appeal to me at all. By the way, my post wasn't meant as a complaint, but you were correct about me being wistful. I miss the old days in chat.

However, your tone in this post implies that I'm not willing to make any effort. I would correct that to I'm not willing to make an effort for what's currently out there.

Hey Missa John - 13/10/2010 04:35:46 AM 541 Views
I've already had several days like that. Yet people keep insisting RAFO is better without chat. *NM* Aeryn - 10/10/2010 05:29:46 PM 371 Views
it depends which chat we get. LadyLorraine - 10/10/2010 05:44:58 PM 621 Views
You're in the Skype Chat now, btw. Joel - 10/10/2010 10:59:24 PM 564 Views
When chat used to be down for long stretches, everyone would just pile into AIM chat. TaskmasterJack - 10/10/2010 06:54:33 PM 692 Views
Which they could easily do with Skype and get voice, yet no one does. Joel - 10/10/2010 10:56:55 PM 716 Views
The idea of voice chat creeps me out on so many levels *NM* Camilla - 11/10/2010 12:34:22 AM 668 Views
So don't do voice; we rarely do. Joel - 11/10/2010 07:35:33 AM 668 Views
Same *NM* ironclad - 11/10/2010 09:40:29 AM 275 Views
Is that why the Edinburgh gathering pics are always nothing but sign language and dirty gestures? *NM* TaskmasterJack - 11/10/2010 10:36:00 PM 362 Views
Come and find out *NM* Camilla - 11/10/2010 10:48:56 PM 247 Views
The group that is popularized as being a part of that is not enticing to long standing wotmaniacs. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 11/10/2010 03:29:57 AM 382 Views
This. *NM* Ghavrel - 11/10/2010 04:43:52 AM 238 Views
Then that, again, seems a problem that coding can't solve. Joel - 11/10/2010 07:33:32 AM 696 Views
I don't think most want to download another program when they had it so easy before. TaskmasterJack - 11/10/2010 10:39:55 PM 723 Views
Honestly, I think the "one time event" is the biggest problem. Joel - 12/10/2010 04:20:04 AM 718 Views
I disagree. I don't think enough people think it worth the effort to deal with Skype. Ghavrel - 12/10/2010 04:28:21 AM 634 Views
What effort? Joel - 12/10/2010 04:38:42 AM 613 Views
The effort beyond clicking two buttons. Ghavrel - 13/10/2010 04:25:57 AM 490 Views
Install, make a SN and search for people you email. Joel - 13/10/2010 04:43:09 AM 670 Views
Re: TaskmasterJack - 12/10/2010 11:00:56 PM 501 Views
Then where are they? Joel - 13/10/2010 04:00:46 AM 577 Views
You have a faulty memory. Chat was incredibly active as late as 2007. Ghavrel - 13/10/2010 04:24:25 AM 649 Views
Again, that's people, and not/having Chat won't change that. Joel - 13/10/2010 04:45:40 AM 642 Views

Initially only the person who started it can boot. Joel - 13/10/2010 05:12:27 AM 723 Views
Re: Initially only the person who started it can boot. BlackAdder - 13/10/2010 02:45:50 PM 592 Views
And me! Kronin al'Sulc - 13/10/2010 03:27:15 PM 592 Views
oops, sorry about that. *NM* BlackAdder - 13/10/2010 03:42:33 PM 545 Views
Sounds right; don't really know much about The Tavern except that's all in character. Joel - 14/10/2010 04:54:06 AM 653 Views
What do you mean where are they? There isn't a chat linked to the site. TaskmasterJack - 13/10/2010 10:44:10 PM 692 Views
So? Joel - 14/10/2010 04:52:37 AM 652 Views
Are you deliberately trying to not understand? John - 14/10/2010 05:54:16 AM 780 Views
Not deliberately. Joel - 14/10/2010 06:21:09 AM 669 Views
I have to admit that I highly doubt I would ever participate if a revived chat were installed Larry - 13/10/2010 05:08:38 AM 642 Views
I doubt that as well, frankly. *NM* Legolas - 13/10/2010 03:32:33 PM 287 Views
Things aren't what they used to be... TaskmasterJack - 13/10/2010 10:46:04 PM 592 Views
No John - 13/10/2010 04:45:29 AM 568 Views
"Unmoderated" would be going too far. Joel - 13/10/2010 04:53:19 AM 715 Views
Most of the group consists of long-standing Wotmaniacs, so. *NM* Dan - 12/10/2010 05:25:39 AM 353 Views
I probably didn't phrase that right. Maybe an -er after long and an "in good" before standing. TaskmasterJack - 12/10/2010 11:02:30 PM 675 Views
Plenty of people who've been around as long as you, and plenty in good standing. *NM* Dan - 13/10/2010 05:36:23 AM 330 Views
I see that my comments are being interpeted as a blanket insult to all parties involved... TaskmasterJack - 13/10/2010 11:09:09 PM 658 Views
Also "as long as me" doesn't really factor, because I wasn't using myself to set the bar. TaskmasterJack - 13/10/2010 11:26:29 PM 708 Views
Also, what qualifies as "good standing"? Who's the judge? *NM* Dan - 13/10/2010 05:36:23 AM 396 Views
The one who wants to chat, of course? *NM* jh - 13/10/2010 07:23:15 AM 354 Views
Jonte is right. The judges are numerous. Each with their own motivations and interests. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 13/10/2010 11:10:04 PM 328 Views
I'd fuck myself to death with a spike of frozen cat piss before I'd chat with that skype crowd. LiterateDog - 13/10/2010 11:42:16 PM 700 Views
Colorful. You big, gay elitist. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 14/10/2010 12:06:14 AM 357 Views
See Kit - 14/10/2010 05:42:21 AM 558 Views
we are Rafonauts now. Yunalesca - 13/10/2010 03:16:32 PM 536 Views
Yeah, I know, I came up with the term. Many still consider the "old gang" as "wotmaniacs" though. TaskmasterJack - 13/10/2010 11:01:58 PM 716 Views
I sure hope you're right. Joel - 14/10/2010 05:04:26 AM 715 Views
I am RAFOlk. Joel - 14/10/2010 06:22:25 AM 565 Views
When I got facebook I stopped logging in to aim. Avendesora - 11/10/2010 01:24:26 AM 575 Views
There's a Chat if you want one. Joel - 10/10/2010 11:01:57 PM 697 Views
i wouldn't say mutely Yunalesca - 10/10/2010 11:40:13 PM 656 Views
Ditto. Stephen - 10/10/2010 11:53:32 PM 599 Views
Well, like I said, talk about something else. Joel - 11/10/2010 01:32:15 AM 606 Views
do you know how hard it is stopping sports fanatics talking about sports? Yunalesca - 11/10/2010 09:59:56 AM 699 Views
I'll usually shut up if someone carries another topic. Joel - 12/10/2010 04:25:19 AM 642 Views
I'd deign to chat with you, m'friend. *NM* LiterateDog - 13/10/2010 11:43:13 PM 317 Views
