What about chatting ? Suggestion

[philipfromparis]

Hi Bryan,

It would be very great if you could place in your forum a kind of instant live chat, so that the members would be able to discuss in a direct way, maybe with more fun than in the "forum post version", overall when it's late at night and the casino balance have reached the zero ...or hit the jackpot This would avoid us to derail threads (CM forum is a very serious forum hopelessly...And sometimes unfortunately) and give us a chance to know other posters better, not only for gambling purposes !!

I know the risk is to see posters desert the forum (and tech stakes...), but it's just a suggestion, as I do not like send private PM to other members (not enough spontaneous), and it could be something you activate during a certain time, at a certain hour...me no know

I would appreciate your point of view on that one and the opinion from other members of the forum.

Cheers

I think it is certainly a good idea but how would we deal with those who might abuse the opportunity to chat?

I had a chat room set up here a few years ago - hardly anyone used it - so I discontinued doing this. Chat rooms can be server intensive, so that may be a factor. I'll consider doing it again - but I'm not sure if I need both a forum and a chat room. That's a lot of blabbering

What an interesting idea....

Maybe a once a week thing, say around 9pm est on Mondays, so we can either brag, or discuss the weekends play on the casinos we have visited/played at/lost/won. Definitely a thought to reconsider

I kinda find hard to believe that a chat room requires too much of bandwitch or cpu resources.

This was a few years ago. I'm sure things are probably cool now - besides, I have my own server

So if you've got your own server, that would be something easy to make for you, would'nt it ??
