    Hey all!

    I don't get to visit often but when I do I get tons of helpful advice. But I then miss all the DMs and when I log back on a few days later those people are gone and I feel bad.

    I wondered if the site has ever tried like a specific time for the general chatroom for a social? We did it at my old work, called a standup just a 15 mins social call.

    I just wondered if we've tried it here? I'd be up for it. I'm finding there are a lot of engaging and witty people on this site as well as polite and well behaved men so it could be fun to have a group chat! :)

    I'm sure if you said you were to be online at a specific time there would be no shortage of men, probably in the same time zone as you, ready to chat.

    Thanks but it's not really about me, just wondered if this has been tried? I (and I'm sure most others) have work and other things to deal with but a general time to chat could be fun. And the men here I will totally give credit to as being mostly better behaved than men I usually have to deal with!

    I would say that i agree with you that perhaps we could find a date and time, perhaps once or twice a week that would allow those who chose to participate would have a platform to "chat", and discuss matters pertaining to the group. I have admittedly only been a member for a brief time, but have also noticed that it is often difficult to connect with those who appear one day and then are gone the next. I would love the opportunity to engage with others who are like minded for the exchange of ideas, socialize a bit and really form a stronger community. Perhaps none of this makes sense, just wanted to share my thoughts. Thank you.

    We're all in different time zones so it would be hard to coordinate

    I can't get chat to work with android phone. It would be helpful so I wouldn't have to be on computer.

    Having a few set times in the day might work to allow everyone a chance to chat with people close to their time zone. Or regional chats at set times (US, Europe, Asia, others?). Maybe just the start of every hour could be a time for people to join and see who is around. Some schedule like this that everybody knows might help.
    I've joined chat quite frequently, but it is usually at a random time of the day and some people are their quite often and others less so.
