Elfkura - It's simple. Not everyone has T1 or cable or DSL to use at their discretion.
i see this as an argument in favor of message boards. i can take my time
re the marathon thread:
Elfkura - it was, as written in the first post, some things aren't happening in IRC, so I did it here. Now, a lot of the other members have turned that thread into something else, I don't know if I want to attempt starting another thread to curb it. I can name one "Questions" but it'll end up the same way as my "msgboard chatroom marathon"... with too many answers and questions people just don't want to read.
i considered ignoring this, but cannot.
to quote post 1 in that thread:
Elf - I'm turning a thread among this msgboard into a chat room, anyone care to join? =P.
Elf - Let's try not to let this post hang for over 2 hours, hm? =P
as one of the main reasons the thread still exists, there was no "mission" in the beginning that we have diverted from.
as always, if ANYONE wants to stop by, and be friendly, they are more than welcome. i am aware the threads size must be intimidating, but the people inside aren't, honest
elf, for "questions" there is the FAQ at the top of the board. the "fun" threads are about meeting people, friendship, etc. they are something to be experienced as opposed to read.
this isn't the first time you have expressed an interest in curbing or killing the marathon thread. why? and why is it a bad thing?
Elf - IRC, which I have always believed to be one of the easiest things to use, wasn't as simple as you or I might think, as my boyfriend recently told me... to which I am still doubtful....
i went, i saw, i got confused, i left
i haven't been back since. if you know how to use it, and what you are doing, then it probably is easy. but if you don't, then it isn't so simple.
