Troll-Free Chat

[Toy Ranch]

http://p105.ezboard.com/foaichattingboardfrm1

This is for OAI folks who have well-known ID's. If you apply and don't get approved, that just means you need to let us get to know you better in public first.

[Jasmine]

Toy,

Whose board is that? Should I apply for membership?

[Toy Ranch]

It's mine, Jasmine, and you are welcomed to join. Chat only, no posting. I'm still fixing the place up.

[Jasmine]

Geez, I sure hope you'll accept me for membership!

[KatieP]

Bless you, my dear. I'd thought about doing something like this too.

[krisinluck]

It would seem things went south last night after I left...

[Toy Ranch]

No Kris, not really. I'd been thinking about this before.

[krisinluck]

Good. I left when we were talking about vinyl record albums of our youth, and it was a fun chat.

Great idea, TR. :1clap3:

[Powerhouse]

No Kris, not really. I'd been thinking about this before.

Yea, ever since he fell asleep at someone elses chat! :1chirol_r

Bobby figures that if he falls asleep in his own chat then no one will notice because he can say he keeps logged in for admin purposes. :D


;)

[Toy Ranch]

lol, powerhouse~!


No, that's not it, but not a bad idea! :D

[Maison Rustique]

I'm not much of a chatter, but maybe I should apply just in case the mood strikes! :1kitty4:

[FLvamp]

So, errrm, ahh ... how would one know if there was a chat planned?

Will fancy engraved invites be delivered? ;)

Will little birdies land and sing the news?

Telepathy?

Reverse writing on bathroom mirrors?

Patterns in tea cups?

Huh, huh, huh?

:irollers4

[Toy Ranch]

One thing I want to mention... I am accepting applicants to the chat only board based on posting history. If you post, talk about yourself, if we all share a common history, you are welcomed to come to chat. If you are a lurker, then sorry, but no lurking in chat. It doesn't mean you are a "troll".

Posting is with anyone, but chatting is with friends. If you want to become a "friend" then post more, talk about yourself, your life, share your pain and pleasure, and become a friend.

Well, we may 'share a common history', but I'll bet Hep, Rod, and Jamie are excluded from that offering. :1chirol_r

[Toy Ranch]

They fall under the "no trolls" edict. ;)

[Powerhouse]

... sorry, but no lurking in chat.

No falling asleep in chat either or Bobby will smack your fingers with a ruler! :D

[FLvamp]

Ooooo, smacks with rulers!!

Where does one sign up for that lil extra? ;)

[bladepusher]

Send TR lewd pics of yourself and he'll tell you where to sign up. :1rotfl1:

[Emily]

I really like chatting - I've almost done it enough now to be able to keep up...almost ;)

What I liked about the old ross board is you could see if anyone was in chat while you were reading or posting to the board.

I only wish I wasn't an east coaster with an early bedtime. That's the main reason I don't join in more often...I'm usually sound asleep by 8:30 pm which is what - 5:30 pm on the west coast? LOL

[juliatheena]

Can I join TR? Just sent you my request.

[bluekazoo]

I can't wait any longer ... I'm going to christen the new place, even if I have to talk to myself, heh ...

6:30 eastern (some of us have to work tomorrow and can't stay up late with you late-sleepers and left-coasters) ...

:1guitarpl

[Emily]

Geez, I missed Blue by half an hour. Pooey! :(

[Powerhouse]

(I'm still waiting to find out if I am one of the chosen) ;)

[bluekazoo]

Emily, I only left cuz it was bad timing ... our lives are not really our own, yanno? lol ...

I'm going back in a few minutes ... hope you're still around ...

[Toy Ranch]

Powerhouse?

[Toy Ranch]

There is no application from powerhouse?

[KatieP]

Well, I tried. Three times I closed and reopened, and it never would completely load for me. It would get so far and then hang up and freeze. So to whoever was the one person in there, if it looked like I came in and didn't say anything, that's why.

[KatieP]

TR, is there one from Solar Destroyer? That's the global ID he uses on EZBoard.

[Emily]

I've got the window open but am doing other stuff online until it's time to hustle the little ones to their beds...

[Powerhouse]

TR, is there one from Solar Destroyer? That's the global ID he uses on EZBoard.

Thank You, Katie.
Yes, Bobby, it would be under my Solar Destroyer ID for EZ.

[Toy Ranch]

OK, you are in Mike.

I always get solardestroyer and fullyoperationaldeathstar mixed up :p

[Powerhouse]

THAT Loser? HA! I spit upon his fullyoperationaldeathstar! :p

[nobs]

Thank you, Toy.

[ssnafu]

Thanks TR for setting the ground rules. Don't feel so bad now.

[sjot]

knock, knock - may I please join? :)

[Eriu]

k, how do ya get in this joint? LOL

[saucepan]

I tried to sign up and as soon as I clicked on Apply for Membership, it said "You'll be notified by email" if you're one of the chosen but it didn't ask for any info or email address.

[sadie999]

It will use the email address you used when you registered on ezBoard.

Peace.

[Kandi]

So I take it you must be an OAI person to be able to chat with you guys?

[FLvamp]

So I take it you must be an OAI person to be able to chat with you guys?
I don't think it's so much OAI per se ... as TR seems to want a sense of who peeps are from posting. Ya dig?

Here's what Toy wrote on the previous page:

Thanks Toy.

THAT says it all.

[Toy Ranch]

You know, most of us posted with each other on boards for 3 or more years before we ever went in a chatroom together?


Saucepan, I asked around, and everyone has seen your ID posting a few times, but nobody knows anything about you or who you are...

BluesBoulevard, I had never even seen your ID before yesterday.

[Kandi]

BluesBoulevard, I had never even seen your ID before yesterday.

Imagine that. I've been around. I posted at the old Ross, although seldomly.

I'm still laughin about the share your pain part. I shared it, trust me, at ebay...ain't going down that road again.

That's ok, I can chat with Blue and Sadie, and some of the others I've been in chat with around here by threads. No big thing.

Hi Blue!

[Femme]

I've never joined a chat because I don't have the program downloaded that is required.

However, I just this past week decided it was time to join this century :) and ordered a NEW computer to replace my 7-year-old, still-working-fine-thank-you, computer. Why, I may even join this century with both feet and download the chat-necessary program. One step at a time, though. :D

And you thought I was just anti-social.
