Scheduled Group Chat(s)
 
I wanted to know how many people would be interested in making use of the chat rooms and having some time of planned chatting sessions. I understand some people have photosensitivity, and as I do not (unless extreme situations) I am not sure how many people can use the flashchat provided on these forums.

We do have other options if that is an issue, though.

I'd like to see how many people would like to participate and which dates/times are best for everyone. This way, we can chat openly and possibly get to know one another better.

I posted the times in Easter Standard Time (I am PST, so I'm 3 hours ahead of that).

hi,
I am photosensitive but the chatroom itself doesnt bother me unless I sit and stare at the screen. The little icons/avatars in there that can be used do bother me tho if they are the moving ones, for example there is one where a ball or something rolls across the screen and back, and another that is, I think, a colored globe that spins. Those are just a couple I can think of.
I wont have a seizure instantly if they appear, and I certainly dont sit and stare at them, but they do bother me enough that I cant read what is written anywhere near them.
You can clear the screen by hitting /clear if moving stuff is posted that is bothering you instead of just waiting for it to disappear on its own.

I also have a hard time with everyone using different colors for their fonts, so I set my font to white (the background is blue) and checked the box that says "show everyones text as your color" or something to that effect.. and I dont have to worry about it.
Chat can be a fun way to get to know people, it would be nice to see a few people there.

Pam
