Sorry, a Bulletin Board format isn't really an instant thing. Just do your best to communicate your question and someone will get back to the post - usually pretty quickly.
 
Of course, now that I look at it, this was the Chat Room. Not sure I've been in here, before.

Well, then you may wish to use the regular forums for math questions. Apparently, there is some confusion about that in the Chat Room. At least, I know I'm confused. :-)

There is a Live Chat feature: https://mathhelpboards.com/chat/ but not too much traffic there :p.

Plus, that's not meant for getting math help. :)

Certainly! I was suspecting that's what the OP thought the 'Chat Room' was (the 'Live' part).
