Why there is not anyone in the chatroom anymore?

Asked by Eggie (5921points) January 13th, 2012

The chat room always had jellies having fun and it was really helpful because it would allow some jellies to express their feelings and their problems there, but why doesn’t anyone go in the chat rooms anymore?

There were people there at least a couple of times this last week. I think you just need to be lucky.

Park yourself there and see who turns up?

But its not often as it used to be in the past, whats wrong, is it the smell?

I sense the need to hold another chat party.

I go there every time I log in, but… I guess the time difference messes things up.

Perhaps it’s too cold in there?

The problem must be our schedules or something. I’ll go in there and sit for hours.. but when no one shows up it just becomes annoying having another useless browser window open.

I brought some Febreez and I’m restocking the fridge.

I’m not a fan of chat rooms. It’s just multiple conversations going on at the same time.

That’s often true @Blackberry. Fluther chat is a little different from most because we’re already all friends here. It’s inclusive rather than cliquish. Really, spellchecker? That’s how the word is spelled?

I have been trying to hang out in there a lot, lately. It doesn’t seem to make a difference.

Blueroses's avatar

Try it now! It’s been aired out and we bought some beanbag chairs.

Yeah, I’m with @Blackberry
It’s too fast paced for me anyway, the couple times I went there. By the time you respond to someone your comment is already absorbed into the vortex. lol

Blueroses's avatar

Aww, c’mon coloma. Tis cozy in there and we already like you.

I seem to clear the room whenever I enter. What’s up with that???

digitalimpression's avatar

I imagine there would be more business in the chat-room if it weren’t quite so quirky. It reminds me of the chat rooms back in the 90’s where you had to click refresh to see the next message.

I just went into a room, stayed for about 3 minutes and then left. It still shows me as being in there which is weird.

Or it could just be the culture of this place. Maybe people want to be able to edit what they’re typing before they post it to the world, which is admirable. Personally, I don’t mind the chat environment as I don’t do a lot of editing anyway. xD

You have to actually click leave @digitalimpression. I was in there last night and there were seven (I think) other jellies in there.
