CHAT APPLET on the FTO Australia site

Post by sunraider »

Hello..

I know we have forums and all where we can discuss stuff, and not that I get on the internet that often, but when I do get online, i always visit FTO Australia.. annnndd i notice that there are at least 10 people on at the same time.

I figured that since people hardly see each other or know one another, and that cruises are so far apart etc, we should have a chat applet on the site so that everyone can mingle?

hmm.. just a thought.

Hehe, you trying to get me fired :P

It's bad enough I spend so much time on the site at work just browsing, but I'd get nothing done if I could chat real time. :lol:

Not sure about the chat. Like you I visit regularly, but usually when I'm at work (dont tell the boss! :oops: ) and I wouldnt have time to chat just add my bit to some posts. So I'd have to say no to this one.. :wink:

Well a while ago, i think maybe 2yrs now, mikey (GPXXX) just ask for everyone's msn messenger address, & we just chat our ass off there. So we don't need to take up the forum space or change anything. Maybe someone want to do another list. But hell yeah i've already got close to 30 current & formal members on my list by now ehehhehee

Thats not a bad idea actually, saves using bandwidth here, the medium is already available so why re-invent the wheel. We had a school reunion a couple of years ago and one of the organisers used Yahoo chat (this was before MSN) to set up an exclusive chat room for ex schoolfriends to get re-acqainted before meeting face to face and it worked really well. So anyone interested in what sunraider is proposing could just get a hotmail account and register interest...
