I happen to know for a fact it could be done tomorrow if there were enough interest. Joel Send a noteboard - 15/01/2010 10:54:53 PM
Of course, getting that running again might be difficult.

There's not. I think Chora has the right idea, for reasons he stated and others he didn't. Setting aside the various interpersonal skills displayed (or not) the last year of wotmanias Chat, how would a RAFO Chat be filled? Unless there's a LOT more people using AIM or something it seems like it'd mostly be Skype regulars (who already have Skype. ) Last time I popped by the IRC channel and Skype neither was exactly Grand Central Station. Even when I pimp it for a week non-stop setting up a conference call is even money, so why invest the time and energy creating something for which there's no demand?

Ultimately, I agree with Tim: If those who occasionally demand Chat miss it so badly, nothing's stopping them from coming up with something of their own and sharing it. Just remember: Lighting fires under wotmaniacs isn't always easy, as more than a few Admins could likely relate; your mileage may vary....
