Should we have a Chat facility like Facebook on the Forum?

Then we could chat (if we wanted) to our friends on here without it always being public. Or do people prefer to chat in a public environment? There is the PM but it is not quite the same as real time chat - what do people think?

PSC, I think that is the reason that the facebook bump group was created. As a chat group, it could sit alongside J2ski, and people could chat to each other. It wouldn't be wibble, it would be non-ski.

The fact is that people choose not to use it.

By and large J2ski threads start off as ski related threads, just so. In the summer, it gets a bit non-ski, but that just keeps things moving.

The real issue is that threads divert wildly, and end up in wibble alley. Like others, I am guilty, now and again, it is, I guess, a question of degree.

I think J2 is a great vehicle for skiing, I would go stronger, and say that for many people, it is important. It is a big diseminator of knowledge and humour. We just need to use it wisely.
