You tell me...​

I had some great fun at last sunday's chat. I think its a great way to get closer interactions with the rest of the PF members (the fast typers at least).

Any possibility of a PF ventrilo server?

Not sure of the specifics, but I'd think 30 or so ppl speaking at once could get frustrating :) Plus the chat is more informal and you can step away for a second when you need to and not miss anything. Whereas voice you need to be attentive all the time and you can't see a log either.

They're in the jar.

Greg's correct, you can't have two chat windows open at once. I've already tried it. You'll get logged out of the first one when the second one opens. I think some more folks might get into a science chat if they could view both at once, since most of the time, you go into science chat and everyone in there is just staring at the walls trying to rest their fingers from the general chat, but if you could keep track of any interesting questions while in general chat, more might start getting involved.

And, yes, I think the HW help forums get watched while we're in chat, if for no other reason than because we always have a few students bugging us with HW question in chat that we tell to go to the HW Help forum and then someone ventures over to help them out.

I've noticed we get a few new members each time we do chat. Are they just coincidentally signing up while chat is in session, or is there an increase in registrations during chat to indicate it may be enticing new memberships or encouraging some folks to de-lurk?

I think my incredible charm brings them in. :tongue2:

Maybe your incredibly charming self could escort them all the way to the HW Help forums then.

 

[Ronnin]

To far to walk, Sundays I have to make sure my couch doesn't run away by holding it down.

hey I am just trying to figure out the time conversion to aysrralian eastern standard, but I am not familiar with CMT. What/where is it? So i can get mylocak time ;)

Some of them are pretty stuborn I must say, maybe we could open a room for Homework help although I don't know how popular thatw will be for people not asking the questions :uhh:

:rofl: I wonder if we should play with some different times so folks on different time zones get a chance to join the fun. Not sure how many members we have who would be interested if it were a more convenient time for those closer to your time zone, but maybe you'd find out that way.

 

[_Mayday_]

Is it happening this week? I can come on today, as I have managed to complete all my school work

 

[Astronuc]

It may be activated later. Please be patient.

 

[_Mayday_]

Close your browser, and perhaps cleanout your cache. If that doesn't work, you may need to shutdown and restart.

This should work - https://www.physicsforums.com/chat/flashchat.php .

[Evo]

What time did the chat end yesterday? Was I missed after I left? :shy:

 

[Astronuc]

It ended at 17:02 EST, 16:02 CST.

Yes - you were missed!

and so were Moonbear and MIH and the other sisters.

 

[Evo]

No wonder it shut down, no sisters!

 

[Math Jeans]

Did I miss anything after I left?

 

[marlon]

was i missed ?

 

[Kurdt]

There was some talk of science so I recall.

Yes you were missed Evo.

 

[Math Jeans]

You know, for a little bit while I was still available, I considered bringing back General Chat's evil twin.

 

[Astronuc]

and I've been craving jumbo shrimp in horseradish and cocktail sauce since.

 

[Kurdt]

Oh yeah, Evo promised me a fudge recipe too.

 

[Evo]

It's coming your way.

 

[_Mayday_]

[_Mayday_]

Same time, same place? I'll be on a bit later as I have a tonne of work to do! See you all then! =]
