This leads me to wonder why there isn't an IRC or some java based chat channel which the active "members" can use to discuss topics, joke around and goof off in. Its much less clunky and way more interactive. By the time a topic gets started, there are already ten pages of replies that you have to trudge through just to keep up....and more keeps comin. And seriously, about 25% of it is relevant.

Has anybody thought about starting a chat room? Makes more sense for the style of posting here.

Don't ge me wrong, I'm not bashing, just pointing out some deficiencies and making observations.

I have to agree since I've thought the same thing, most of what i've read is silly goofin off btwn long time friends., newbies are pretty much left out in the cold, ignored, but I can do without so much goofiness, GOD's WORD and service to Him is serious., I think that perhaps another good idea is one just for newbies to get to know each other., just my twocents.
