I was just curious. I have YAHOO instant messenger , but not everyone has that or wants to down load it to use it.

Technically an IRC chat channel would probably be easy to set up. However I believe the reason there isn't an official one is that it's just too hard to monitor to ensure LP's community standards. (I Think the admins like to sleep, eat and live their lives). As well in any large group people have personalities that will clash. No one will ever make everyone agree or be amicable. It's just life, you take the punches and roll with them. I'd imagine people would reach a point where they would start branching out in their own little cliques. (Witness that phenomenon at work).

Then we can add each other to the contacts list, and then chat at will.

Originally Posted By Lady Starlight I made a gmail account. thats a bummer if you can only chat one on one. Ill look into yahoos chat options maybe we canget a chat room there for all of us who would like to chat.

Originally Posted By x Pirate_Princess x Christie, send me an email, too I think you can do group chat. I just "invited to chat" and you can check those you want to invite. Not enough gmail accounts to try a group chat, but it'd be interesting to try. It may be a new feature. They're always upgrading. I love google.
