Consider how it will be if the CD forum only have 1 section. There would be 50 new threads a day under 1 section. It will become hard for people who prefer focused conversations. Would it be possible to setup multiple chat rooms? Have a main lobby, and people can make announcement to all the little chat room when they want to, but give people the abilities to start their own little room for smaller discussions.

But that sounds like too much work. Just something to think about.

It wont be too much work if we have a a server setup, or someone is willing to host. I think ChatSpike.net can host multiple chat rooms for us. Astronouth, any ideas?

Almost everyday now, I and Ryan Foley host FIRST chats on AOL usually late nights. I can stay in there 24/7(Not active, but to keep the room), and everyone can chat there. I think we'll settle for the room name "FIRST" (Without the quotations obviously). So come in and lets see if that solves our problem.

It's really easy on ChatSpike, if you know IRC control commands. First, you need a registered nickname. The Nickname server is down, so this is iffy. The command is /msg nickserv register. for help, try /msg nickserv help register.

The channel server is simmilar, just chanserv instead of nickserv. If you want me to, I will. but some things to ask as far as protection: Hidden (doesn't show up in channel list)? Invitation only? Password? requires voice to send? (feel free to answer in order).
