Chat room?
Am I just being daft fermain - Saw your invite to come in for a chat and thought the new chatroom facility was up and running - but I can't find it....
Are we just in old traditional simultaneaous post mode for the moment?
Oh and by the way - if everyone is here how the hell am I going to get my last 100 posts in to reach B&I legend on the bright side?

could be!!!
Like the Gurus on the dark side I'm not sure that I want to go on a meaningless post though....as it wasn't the captain earlier (he was on the board immediately before ago arrived) I guess it was you cables. That's twice now - three wind-ups and you're out....

Have to maybe agree with the concerns being voiced, would it affect the banter on the MB. Also is there really a need for a chatroom, as all messages on the MB are posted instantly so everyone can read and reply straight away anyway, so maybe ur just causing extra work for urself fermain which isnt really required.
I suppose you're best to keep it in reserve fermain. I think the reason you suggested it is that (like me) you're conscious that a number of posters were put off the original URSC site by the occasional wild ramblings and hijacking(s) of threads which generally happened late at night and fuelled by alcohol
It would be good, now that we have the advantage of a fresh start, to avoid repeating the same listakes and alienating valuable punters/contributors.
I think the tap room was potentially a good enough solution except that it came too late for some - and that it requires discipline on the part of the posters - to take it off to the tap-room before it gets out of hand.
If we all try hard then the chat-room need never become a necessity, and the tried and trusted public threads will be the way to go. But I'd rather have a chat-room than an exodous of posters

Aye but if the nugget of gold is in the chat room it is missed. I see the concerns about going off topic but topics will always go off on a tangent no matter what happens. It is human nature but the problem with the old URSC MB was that we all got involved in a bit of semi private banter which peeved some more serious posters who then went on to the main MB and had their own.
We have all in the main remained very much on topic since then and when we have strayed it has been brought back to something remotely resembling topic. the tap room does seem to be working well and I have not noticed any problems since the obvious one.
