Hello folks, it seems almost daily that I get at least 1 request to join sleuth chat. Which I all do approve. It has no 85 members.

So lack of membership is not a problem. The problem is, that people joined one at a time.
And with that people log in a few times, and no one is ever on chatting. So people stop logging in.

Shall I regard this as an experiment failed. Or, are we gonna try this week, to check more often if anyone is in the chat room?

It makes no sense to log in once for 5 seconds to see if anyone is there. The chances are too small to catch anyone. But if a few people try to log in permanently by having it open in the back ground. Then there is always someone waiting for someone.

Do we want to give this a trial, or shall I close sleuthchat??? I hate for people to go through the trouble of joining, while it is inactive.

If you see me online in Sleuth, I will also be logged on in Sleuth chat.

I signed in daily to see if anyone was there, and even kept it open for awhile but noone would ever show. I gave up lol BUT....I think you should leave sleuth chat open and give it another chance :) I'll be signing on soon!

Oops, I did it again. After Texan posted a reply he forgot to log off, so I got on and forgot to log in..hehe. Anyway, I'd love to chat live with members but how do I go about it? I just checked my email from Sleuthchat, and saw members signed on but I couldn't open a live chat? This blonde air head needs some assistance......lol.?

Can you get in to the sleuthchat site itself?
When you click on the chat link. Then either a program starts downloading if you have never been there before. Then on the page you see, you see a smiley face appear with a link underneath it. Click that and you are in.

Perhaps it is an idea if people commited to log in to sleuthchat when they are also logged in to sleuth. If we have a list of people, then if you do a who's online in sleuth, you know you won't be checking for nothing in Sleuthchat.
