Chat room?

[ViperJr]

Hello!
I'm still very new to this forum, so I apoligized if this something that have already been discussed or exist. Now, onward to the real topic!

I love snakes. I love lizards. I love frogs. I love salamanders.
I love caring for them. I love feeding, cleaning, misting, changing the water.
I love research about a new animal. I love researching about the terrarium they need.
I love setting up the tank, I love maintaning a good terrarium.

Basicly, I love every single aspect about this hobby. This means I can not simple get enough of it! And I can not TALK enough about it! However, this is kind of hard. I do not know alot of people at all that share my intressest, and it's not that usual to keep frogs up here (especially not as many species as there are on this forum). This forum is great, but a forum is still just a forum. I want to talk about it, in real time! Just casual chatting about what's up at terrarium in your houses, if the frogs are calling, how you feed your animals and with what, how did you get your frogs/reptiles. Anything!

So, if there are any other people like me out there, how about setting up a IRC-channel? Or Skype-conference or whatever. I did notice that there is a chat-function embedded in the forum, but it's not used at all. So, I'm kind of hoping that that's just because it's kind of impracticle, and people are just waiting for a better medium to chat with!

So, what do you think?

I'm sorry Viper Jr.. You are alone.

Actually, the chat function on this site works perfectly well. Unfortunately, it's not used very much. There used to be much more activity on it, but much less recently...

Actually we had one member that would schedule chats quite often. Why don't you think about it and let's set up a time and date where we can meet up in the chat room. Maybe you can do a poll and find out what would be the most convenient day and time. Count me in.

I'll do my best. But can't commit.

[ViperJr]

Aaaw, don't talk to me like that Eric, I don't want to be alone!

Cheri, I could do that! Just have to work something out, sinces the time difference is quite... Well, 9 hours speaks for itself
I'll get started tomorrow, perhaps just post a schedule and see if people show up. Otherwise, some polling might be a good idea like you said.

[ViperJr]

Sorry it took me a long time to make something up, but I've been quite busy.

So, how about we have a first "chat-meeting" at 07.00 pm EDT* (which I think is a good time for most americans/canadians) on sunday in exactly a week? Just too see if anyone shows up and just talk about whatever we want, frogrelated or not!

So, sunday the 12th of juni, 07.00 PM EDT, here in the sites chat!
Spread the word!




EDT = GMT -4 (now in summertime)

[clownonfire]

Martin, I'll be here!
Perhaps a little reminder next Monday will help too...

Hi all. Less than an hour for some chat time!

[lnaminneci]

Sorry that I missed this one. I ended up getting free tickets to the Monterey Bay Aquarium for today.

I just got home and was very concerned about our Frog Forum moderator Ebony. Christchurch, NZ had another large earthquake today. I just spoke with her and she and her family are safe. Just a few cuts and bruises. Sending out love and prayers to those in Christchurch, NZ.

If the timezones is confusing, don't be afraid to ask! I'm using timezones converters all the time, trying to get it right.

Be there! Last time was a blast!

[ViperJr]

The chat is really starting to come alive! I've ended up chatting with alot of people several times this week. It's really nice to see and to chat with everyone! I've learned alot about breeding, tanks etc.

Today a total of SEVEN people ended up chatting, unplanned, for a great while. However, the chat started to crash horribly for some of us. I have contacted admins and mods to see if anything can be done about it.

Also:
Date: 19th June

Be there!

Would've been more talkative but a family member came running in and said "I found a FREE POOL!" ... free pool kinda took over the rest of the day. Hehe.
