HEY - HOW COME NOBODY USES CHAT???

just curious??? I go out there but get tired of chatting with just myself...
 
cause we're normally too busy chasing each other around here to make it into the chat room.

Or in my case, everyone's retired for the evening when I have time to pop into "the shed"
 
You're serious? The Shed usually gets a workout once or twice a week.
 
yea..I think I may have figured out I have an access issue..does it use my same USER and Password or do I need to regaister with a completely new one???

never said I was computer literate!!
 
First go you can use about anything. I like to be consistent tho. /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif
 
?? guess it doesn't like me...rejects when I try
to register and won't let me in THE SHED unless
I'm registered...I'll keep trying..

OK..I'm tired now...let me know if there's a secret knock
or handshake...I'll try later..
 
Should be able to access it with your usual log on for th' forum. There may be a couple "warning" pop-ups (firefox, shows 'em anyhoo) to say "OK" to but then you should be in.
 
I`v tried chat numerous times and all but once, found no one there. But then ...... it`s usualy past time when any "Normal" sane person would be online anyway. And .... Besides ..... Who wants to stay awake just to chat with me. Even if and when I do encounter live bodys in chat I mostly just sit back and watch anyhow. I guess I`m really kinda boreing. Don`t have a whole stable full of unique cars to talk about either. Not wealthy nor handsome. {But the girls around here do find me handy} /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/lol.gif
Keep your stick on the ice!
Yea ....... I`m a man! ......... But ...... I can change ...... If I have too!
Red Green!
I love that show, it`s so stupid, it`s halariously funny.
Ok, I know ....... I have a warped sense of humor!
 
I just don't see the point. It's the same thing, only at a faster pace.

Chat takes up 100% of my time for however long I'm on it. On the standard forum, I can do other things and still get a word in because the "conversation" is slower.

If I really wanted to chat, I would set up an internet conference call and just talk to everyone.
 
heh...

shed is open BTW /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smirk.gif
 
saves Basil lots of disk space $$ for idle chit/chat...plus I'm a fun guy to chat with over a beer...infortunatley we just have to be in separate places...anyway...

little more testing and yes I am getting a pop-up blocked mesage...so I turned pop-up blocker off...but still getting the message so I'm not seeing the screens I can OK....I'll keep at it...
 
BTW Bibber, there's 5 in the 'shed' right now.
 
Persistence PAYS!
 
I find that leaving the rooms you want to go into set to "make selection..." (or something very similar) gets me in there everytime. However, I found that if I have either of those set to some room I'll end up stuck at the login screen. AFTER i get signed in I can then click on a room with people in it and go there.
 
Heck, I thought we were just chatting right here!
 
Actually got several into the Shed...a different way to
have some fun exchanges ideas and activities I'll have
to trigger a way find it's place amongst the rest of the BCF'ers ...
