Hanger-On Registered: Jan. 70 | Last night I went into the chat room, and found like 20 people in there. Meanwhile, the board is fucking dead. What gives here people? Is the board to slow for you? I've not seen so little activity on the board since I've been a member here (admittedly not since its inception). I just wonder if people actually like chatting more than they like posting on the board? If this keeps up, I may have to find another hobby to whittle time in my pathetic excuse for a life.

O&A Board Regular Registered: Sep. 00 | Never been in a chat room of any kind. Maybe it's just fear of the unkown. What's it like. Is it like the old party lines on the phone? | ||||

O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | like ferret said, the conversation can be a lot of stuff you wouldn't post.if most of the people in chat are watching the same tv show, you might not make a thread, but in chat theres constant line quoting whnever somebody is funy.chat lets you make fun of cls or foundry music joker for hours on end without wasting the time of hitting reply before typing, or waiting for their response.also, occaisionaly banned members of the board, like mav, will come in through foundry and we can yell at them, too.kid, if you don't like chat, DON'T COME IN.on nights when you just pop in for a few seconds it gets really annoying to some of the chat regualars(not me...i couldn't care less).for a really good answer, you'll have to ask somebody who'se ALWAYS in there, like brodie and jumper, or maybe jj thanks to fez for the pic | ||||

Hanger-On Registered: Jan. 70 | quote: With all of the inane bullshit that gets posted on this board (this thread included), I find it rather shitty that people actually feel this way. I mean, there is no need to start a thread about every thought that pops in your head. But, I thought the idea was to bring up topics and discuss/make fun of them. I'm just offering an unrequested theory.

O&A Board Regular Registered: Dec. 00 | I got into chat for one reason only. Sometimes, i dont meet my daily quota of being called a"slope", "gook", "chink", "Zipperhead", etc. Suffice to say, the quota is exceeded within 30 seconds in chat. Kill them all. All of them. Let the Blood flow. The Children. The Pets. The Friends. All of them. There are no Innocents. Finish them all I hate you. I hate everything you stand for. Please, for the love of christ, do not send me a E-mail | ||||

O&A Board Regular Registered: Apr. 01 | Good point, Seph. If we were in chat right now, I could say "Happy birthday, you gook, slope, zipperhead chink", and you would receive it right away. By posting it here, I have to wait until you refresh this thread. :-) | ||||

O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | There has been a chat area and feature since I started on this board in October. It's always been, and get this one, A CHOICE. Posting is different from chat. Perhaps you have forgotten the difference. The fact that alot of posts have become chat threads can be an argument to the opposite opinion that you are making Kid. Chats are throw aways...nothing really said of great value. It's a little social avenue and immediacy a la the internet. Posts are statements and information to be chewed on, and take more time for interaction...but here's the key word: INTERACTION. Both posts and chat lets us O&A fans interact...thus the function of the board is made either way. You can choose to post. You can choose to chat. This board provides a place of O&A fans to interact, and having both meets those goals. | ||||
CriticsLoveSnatch i know better than to ask for a status from you mean ol' mods I shall call him mini-FTL | posted on 07-18-2001 @ 1:03 PM | ||||
O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | I just think its fun. the difference is in chat you fuck up and say something stupid its there for few minutes then its gone. if you fuck up and say something stupid on the board, its there forever for all to see. also, it is cool to call seph a chink and fyfe a fag in realtime. Here's to the nights we felt alive Here's to the tears you knew you'd cry Here's to goodbye, tomorrow is gonna come too soon...

Psychopath Registered: May. 01 | I so enjoy myself in the chat, i love chitchatting and it keeps me occupied, cause I have just too much spare time lately. By know I am addicted to chatting. The subject can be anything, I really don't care... Have you ever had that typical Dutch feeling...."Have I That???" | ||||

Hanger-On Registered: Jan. 70 | quote: I sometimes go into the chat just to see who's there. If there is nobody there I want to chat with, I leave. Gooch, the chat has not always been here. It was gone for sometime actually. I admit I missed the days of voice chat. But, my point here was only to question what people liked about it so much. I'm not asking anyone to stop going there, just posing a question and stating my opinion on the matter. I realize that I can not make or break the chat. I also realize that it is not up to me to decide. I've just noticed, as I stated previously that there are a lot of people in chat sometimes, and nobody posting on the board. Seems to me that when there was no chat there were a lot more people posting. I do, however, agree that the season has some bearing on it. I don't mean to insult anyone that enjoys the chat, I enjoy it sometimes too. Just not as much as I enjoy the board.

O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | I agree posting is ten times better. After all, how many times can you insult Tequila and BrokenJaw's mothers in the chat, anyway. Get's boring after a while. | ||||

Psychopath Registered: Jan. 01 | Chat is just fun! You meet people, interact more, and can simply respond to anything being said, istead of having to type sentences upon sentences as a response. | ||||
