That is correct.
I see nothing wrong with a team opening another chat. There wasn't a public outcry when chiefdelphi opened their chat, or when Cyber Blue did theirs. I agree with Andrew that the Tigerbolt chat is severely lacking in technical discussion. If his chat room can fill that void the it's better for the FIRST community.
If you can figure out how to get the technical crowd to your chat room, more power to you.

I think Joe got this one right one. Field of Dreams was a holywood thing, I think it will be difficult to get a large crowd in your chat but hey, who am I to tell you it shouldn't be done? I'm no one so have at it. The chat on this site never had people in it (was that because of Tigerbolt?) and I didn't even know about Cyber Blue's chat. Ther are many teams who have team chats, but I think Tigerbolt is going to be the main draw. As Dan said, the chat is alive and kicking during prime west coast hours, I can name 4 west caosties with out even having to think who are often in the chat with us. Most of the time we are just in there talking about nothing so if you want to start a topic then just bring up a subject, you may get more responses than you are prepared for. So Andrew stop in sometime and say hey. I'm sure you'll fit right in with us.
