An "once in a month"-chat?
Hello again. I have another idea now.
In the [Only admins are allowed to see this link] thread, wouldn't it be nice to have once a month, a "chat hour" there? We chose a day and time we have it, and then we have it once a month. So if people want they can log in and just chat and know there are other peoples there?
What do you think of this idea? Is this something we should do if it gets "accepted"?

Back in 2009 we had a chat box at the bottom of the forum. I guess it would be easy to bring it back.

No, I do not mean a chat box. I mean we have a chat in the existing "random discussion" thread.Labros! wrote:Back in 2009 we had a chat box at the bottom of the forum. I guess it would be easy to bring it back.

Then a thread in the "Just for fun"-section then?
A chat box would make so the forum would gain less posts each day...

We care mainly about the number of posts in the Helena-related sections and not about the total number In fact we don't want the "Less Paparicious Area" to be the most active part of the forumSvenskjäveln wrote:A chat box would make so the forum would gain less posts each day...

Still there would be many posts lost. Even in the Helena-related forums because questions would maybe be made in the chat instead in the Helena general discussion-forum.
Also, if "Random Discussion" isn't considered as an chat thread. Then I think it actually would be better to lock that thread. Because sometimes there are posts in that thread who could be an interesting discussion in an own thread. But instead a post is made in the random discussion and it will maybe get a few replys and then another subject is brought to the thread. In an own thread it would get some replys, and then more discussion would be made in the specific thread. A discussion lasts longer in a own thread instead of a thread you can write about anything in.
And if it is considered as a chat thread, it might also be a good thing to lock it to make the discussion to another threads.

The random discussion thread is about general things. A new thread is only needed when someone has something important to say and wants to start a serious discussion.Svenskjäveln wrote:Also, if "Random Discussion" isn't considered as an chat thread.

But still many choses to post in the random discussion when they could have made a new thread.Labros! wrote:The random discussion thread is about general things. A new thread is only needed when someone has something important to say and wants to start a serious discussion.
For example, I am a member of a forum where people can for money/fake money make an own forum. I am member of one of these forums and it had a chat thread. That was a very active chat thread but instead there was almost no posts in the other threads and not many threads was made. But then the admin of that forum chosed to lock the chat thread. Suddenly more threads was made so they could have their discussions in other threads. And other things then the chat thread got more active then ever.
Some things are good for a "random discussion"-thread but many times it can give the other parts of the forum less posts.
With other words, I think that thread can stay but I think it should be considered as a chat thread.

It IS a chat thread, but a "chat hour" would bring too many spam posts in just a few minutes. Anyway, let's wait for other people's opinions

I like the chat box idea too but with the rule that there shouldn't be discussion about Elena yes:)
