Re: Chat
There are ups and downs with the tigerbolt chat room, but if people are willing to use that as the main chatroom, that's fine.
My thoughts is that even with the tigerbolt chat room being the focus of the chats, i feel it is still important for there to have some sort of announcements telling people something like "between XXXXpm to XXXXpm we are having an official chat about the new game". In other words, some sort of focus in the chat when people know when to show up, and what to talk about. The other problem is there is not a lot of room for multiple discussion in a single chat room. What I was hopping to see is people who have a specific topic in mind can easily organize a chat for it and invite the rest of the FIRST community to join in. That person will be able to keep the focus on the topic, and have some fun with it. There can be different chatroom happening at the same time so you don't get as much noise in a single one. Though that's just my thoughts. If people think the tigerbolt chatroom is the place to go to, than that's fine. *edit* I just saw wetzel's comment about the sticky belonging to chit-chat, and I agree with that. If people are making any sort of chat announcement they should do it in there. *edit* Last edited by Ken Leung : 10-01-2005 at 16:26. |

Re: Chat
I was wondering if we could get something like a PJIRC install on here that is pointed to the #firstrobotics IRC channel. And we would need a link up in the orange bar and an announcement about the new feature on the portal page. I think if those things happened, we'd get a lot more people chatting. I'm thinking a lot of people just don't know about #firstrobotics. Anyone agree?

Re: Chat
There's a pretty big liability, since the client could be used to access non FIRST stuff, and you're relaying it through Delphi's website, I'm not sure how the higher ups would feel about that. I know the Clarkson University IT staff have blocked out IRC entirely in favor of campus security and legal reasons.

Re: Chat
Why an IRC chat? I have been to other webpages where there is a built in chat right on the webpage where all members of the forum on that page could post to the chat. It was very useful and worked very well since there were always 3+ knowledgeable members on. Let me see if I can find the webpage.

Re: Chat
For those of us with Firefox, how about Yakalike with a semi-normal start time? If you want to chat get onto CD around 8 o'clock and sign into Yakalike. You don't even need to stay on CD to keep chatting to your fellow FIRSTers. They have a little check box so that you can surf the web while remaining in the CD chat. Pretty simple, only problem being you have to have Firefox if you want to chat.

Re: Chat
RCU hosts a chat in TappedIn.com, an educational website which is secure. We "meet" every other Tuesday evening - Pat Chen of SPAM got us set up, so maybe she could do the same for a general CD chat.
