I was just wondering why any of the members who post their thoughts, don't use the chat room that is available for real time discussions. It seemd to me that if other members were to come together in the chat room, we could exchange ideas and thoughts in real time and spark new ideas and have info more available by discussing it as a group, rather then posting our thoughts and having them read either hurs or even days later. Just a thought. Peace to all and hope your all having a pain free day. mellowguy.

I have tried this before, The thing is you have to set up a time or else no one will be there the same time. I would like to do it say one or 2 nites a week,...What do you think?

I think it's a geat idea. Now we need more people.

Chat sessions are a great idea, but may I suggest you set a day and time? For example.... Tuesday and/or Thursday at (say) 7pm Central Time!

That's just a suggestion! You might prefer 11am or 4pm on a different day!

A set time and a particular day of the week, would be the way to go because people tend to get bored with sitting in the chat room hoping for some-one to drop by, and they leave when no-one does.

If you have a set day and time you'd be more likely to get others prepared to join in as they'd know what time to check in.

Remember also that weekends and Friday evenings are traditionally quiet around the forums, as most people spend time with family and friends on these days.

Because NT encompasses every state in the USA and several other countries, the time factor is important, so if you do want members from all states and countries to join in....you might want to look at their time zones when setting your chat times.

Pick a time, and a day, and post them here in the forum.

Good luck.... I hope your chat sessions are very successful.

I think that is a great idea. I would love to chat with everyone in real time. Anytime in the evening works for me. =) I look forward chatting with everyone.

MellowGuy, I tried to set this up a couple months ago also. However the whole thing kind of did not work. Everyone is right you do have to set up a date and a time for everyone to meet there. Or you are just in there by yourself. I really hope that it does work this time! You can count me in also. Take Care-Breezy55 Please keep us updated to when this is going to start!

to all of you kind people who responded to my thought of getting together for a real time chat have given me some hope that this could work. As far as for me,,,,any night or day and anytime is fine with me. Being on ssi I don't have a lot of places to be. I understand that not everyone has a schedule like me so, I can work around anyone's time. To start, why don't we shoot for any weekday between the hours of 9:00 a.m untill 3:00 p.m EST. (I'm on the east coast) I understand that weekends are a tough time because of family issues, Most people work on weekdays or have children in school. At least this is a start. I hope you all have a pain free day and be safe.

We could do most anytimes,
but on other boards,
I found Sunday evenings, to be the easiest.
Around late dinner time, say, 7.00-10.00 EST, and then take it from there.
But, I'm NOT running the show....
So,
just let me know when....
I'll do my best to be there!!!!

(I'd bet everyone else would too)!


PS

I notice that this forum slows down on weekends.
Are we football watchers on Sundays, or, do we stay by our spouses?
We could be spending time here, while they watch FB.
(I'm obviously not a Huge sports guy).

Like I said, whatever works out.....

Sometimes, you just gotta park yer tail in the "forum"
and wait!
