Limit RAF Chat Users?
« on: October 25, 2008, 07:00:37 PM »
This poll will run for 3 days.

If yes is the majority, the RAF Chat rooms will be limited to 10 persons.
If no is the majority, the RAF Chat rooms will stay at its current limit of 20 persons.

If yes is the majority another random room will be created.

hmm...I don't really care since I can't get in the chat anyway. However if you make a new chat, there's a possibility (just a possibility) I could get in...

What happens when you try? What browser are you using?

I'm using firefox, but I don't think it's the problem with the browser. I think china's blocking me. It says the connection timd out. Same thing happens with the blog actually, but the blog doesn't really matter since I can just use a proxy to get in. proxies don't really work too well for the chat.

I didn't have my phone back then, so I don't know.

Ummmn... may I propose an idea?

Maybe have one Random Room that is limited, and have a second Random Room that ISN'T. The users could then have the option of talking to many at once OR they can access a smaller, less confusing conversation.

Would that be feasible?
The universe is, instant by instant, re-created anew. There is, in truth, no Past, only a memory of the Past. Blink your eyes, and the world you see next did not exist when you closed them. The only appropriate state of the mind is surprise. The only appropriate state of the heart is joy. The sky you see now, you have never seen before. The perfect moment is now. Be glad of it.

i think the limit should stay. i mean how often is there more than 10 anyways?

i like estel's idea as well. a no-limit room and another one with a limit.

i also have another suggestion.
in the log-in box in chat, could we possibly change the text color?
white against light-yellow is very hard to read.
