Does anyone [use] Chat?

[HonorforONEFilms]

Whenever I'm online and I see someone else online that I'm corresponding with I open the chat to see if there in. They never are. In fact no one else ever is either. Seems like it would be a really handy tool if more people than me used it.

So is it just me or does anyone else check chat?

Edit: Sorry about the title. Comes from not prove reading.

It used to be used a bit. I don't recall it seeing much use in a long time though.

What is this chat and how do you use it?

[Norseman]

Live chat...right beside post a reference tab.

I have gone in like 3 times in like 10 years. It would be nice to start using it though.

[HonorforONEFilms]

Yeah it would be really nice. Okay well we might as well get this started the right way

Ahem...

I hear by pledge my allegiance, to the BarterTown Chat System
And to the Ease for which it stands
One system, to be used by BT, undividable,
and to opened every time I log in

All rise for the BT national anthem.

Ohhhh, say can you sEEEEEEE! By the laptops LCD light, what so gallantly we beheld
with the battery dieing, with blue strips and white type!
it will run on the same.
BT Chattttt! will always stand...

I'm going to bed.

Wow I'm a noob. I'll have to check it out. That being said, does anyone use it?

IIRC, Btown's had a chat since we went to phpbb (or shortly thereafter, at least).
In bygone days, it was utilized extensively, but it was considered bad form to go in there just to chat. People who went in there weren't looking for the "Hi, guys! What's up?" messages. Oh, no. LOL They wanted to deal!

I pop in once or twice a week to see who's there and just say "Hi" if I see someone I know.

I think I'll go say, "Hi," now, in fact.

LOL
That's weird.
I logged out of chat before posting that last post (@ 9:54 PM Central).
Weird that it showed me logging out at that time (it's not the hour difference. I get that. It's the 4 minutes).

Wow I was feeling it too.

Sorry, I just opened it up (for the first time ever) just to see if there was actually anyone there. Wasn't trying to duck anyone, just wasn't planning to stay online for long.

Oh no that's fine. I edited my post when I saw you comeback in. I just thought it was funny. I've done it enough except when no one was there.

I'm totally not computer savvy, but if I had to guess, I would say that when it's empty, the chat room updates it's status when the next user logs in, so it told IH that MM had left at the time when IH logged in, rather than the time when MM logged out.

And vice versa.

Hey thanks whoever fixed the title.
