Question: Hey, would you like a UQM chat created?
Nah, I don't like it.
Sure, any kind of chat will be fine.
Yes, and I think a new IRC channel will be good enough.
Definately, though it has to be a unique web-based chat.
Either 2, 3 or 4 - and I also want to take a part in doing this.

So what about a UQM Chat?
« on: February 22, 2006, 04:50:53 pm »

I assume this may have been thought of before, but just to arrange opinions. personally I think this can be a very good place to exchange any UQM chit-chat including real-time talks about the whole Remaking theme that surrounds this community!
probably the only possibility is that it would be a non-official chat that is not associated specifically with The Ur Quan  Masters- but with all related stuff, just like this forum. You're also welcome to express your preference on type of chat you think would be most suitable.

I think there is a chat already on the PoNAF, and noones ever there.

Me I don't chat except in RL.

There's already #sc2 at OPN, where all UQM-related discussion takes place, and there's #starcontrol at EfNet, where the people from the PNF hang out. Isn't that enough?

#starcontrol on EFNet is a frightening place...

I go to the #sc2 one, but I don't seem to find anyone there.. hmm.

The only reply I got once was:

Elerium: Is anyone here?
(Can't remember user's name): We are, but we're just ignoring you.

That's too bad to hear, yet also strengthen my point.
I'm aware that those forsaken SC channels exist, although their existance doesn't mean anything. they're worthless if no one cares about them.
if we create a chat room of our own, start over, WE, meaning members of the forum, could use it and it could form an online-instant aid to the Forum.
You say, "Isn't it enough?"
well, it's enough, but it's not close to be GOOD enough. that's what needs to be fixed.

That sounds like me. I'm the friendly and outgoing sort, you see.

#starcontrol on EFNet is a frightening place...

And as far as I can recall (not having been there more than once a couple of years ago), has nothing to do with SC.

How about a Skype chatroom? That could work well.

#sc2 on freenode (OPN) isn't exactly forsaken... just dormant for the most part. It's active whenever development discussion is taking place (highly technical conversations which I rarely understand) but there are also easier-to-follow conversations about random stuff, such as arne's projects or who has the nerdiest t-shirt.

You could start a @sc2 channel on freenode if you want a "fan-oriented" IRC channel that is for the UQM community... but It probably would be no more active than #sc2.
