Chat room

[Tomasito]

For those people who didn't manage to do download the mp3 recorded by Tosten, here is the transcript:

Hello every one!
Thank you very much for sharing your opinions on the question:
Whether or not we should implement a real time chat rom.

I think you are right: a real time chat rom of course is very availiable feature for
people who whant to get answers and information straight away.
So yes, we are working on adding a real time text chat feature.
It might take a couple of weeks until it becomes availiable but it will be sooner than later.
Of course there is difference betwen writing something in a forum and using a real time chat room. I think both have their own benefits and different people have different views.
So we, yes, we are going to add a real time text chat room.

Now I see the point. All clear:)

Loverose, skypecast does not exist anymore. So does the website. It used to work some years ago (2? I don't remember). If you wanna have some conversation with me, just let me know. We could have a talk on Skype anyway ! I just have to create an account on skype. If someone wants to have some talk, be welcomed !

Good morning folks. I'm happy for you all that Torsten has agreed to having a chat room

My second thought is that I hope you don't come to regret it.

With peoples ability to change e-mail addresses and Forum names at the drop of a hat, I shudder to think of the possibilities of misuse. In the last forty-eight hours we have had two new members already appearing to be offensive to reputable posters.

I appreciate that you wish to benefit from a pleasant exchange of ideas, but there are those whose only wish is to disrupt all of the good work that Slava and Torsten will have to take upon themselves to comply with your wishes.

A moderator's nightmare may well come about.

Kitos.

Hi Kitosdad,

I myself joined in a live chat room almost one year ago and am there quite often. The site that offers this opportunity provides the user with two possibilities:

1st - there is a chat room that is adminstered and you have to register and can be banned from.

2nd - there is another room you just have to choose a nickname and enter

Guess which room is most frequented? And guess in what chat room is the better English written?

#1 wasn´t so much crowded since #2 has been new inserted and ppl there had been free to insult and much weird things to treat each ohter. :shock: And believe me, even in the cyber rooms there are groups of persons who does. Prayer mills.......uneducated and ppl with lower skills in the English feeling insulted from every English sentence because they didn´t understand anything. People writing in their native language instead of trying to improve in English fuzzed around and always send sounds like silly childish jerks. On the other hand you also can meet very friendly people who are seriously interested in increasing in knowledge and additional like to chat to kind ppl all over the world. And that within both rooms. But after all the 1st one (the adminstered one) is definitely the more pleasant one.

Finally, I´d say, live chat can be very useful in learning demand and pleasant at the same time. It all depends on the user joint in. Hence, why not try it.

Just don´t forget to return to a site where good English is written and you can obtain great support like here.

Could be nice to meet each other live.

Hi,

Please do not misspell the word 'you' purposely. Many thanks.

Good afternoon Michael.

"Hence, why not try it".

I probably will Michael, but merely as an observer.

Bill.

Ok then. Pleased to talk to you. My skype nickname is michauek87.
Torsten, what's about this purity of language? I think that it has been a long time ago since people started using the acronyms and the internet slang. I perceive "u" (you), cuz (because), 4u (for you), g4u (good for you) etc. as a natural element in the internet world, but I may understand this fact that we should not use it here. It's the language forum and we should at least keep that in mind. Some ppl (sorry, some people :D) may not understand it, wonder what a word means or just use slang incorrectly.
