We are currently organizing scheduled chat events for different forums, as well as assembling a list of celebrity speakers to cover an interesting range of rare subjects. The topics for discussion may be very specific, or perhaps more general and just titled ... "An evening with (fill in your favorite speaker request here)". If you'd like to see any specific members formally invited to appear as guest speakers, please let us know and we'd be happy to check if they have any interest in doing so. For example, we already have two recognized experts, who have agreed to be guest speakers in the coming months, for similar events being held for members of the M1903/1903A3/A4 Springfield Rifle forum. :thup:
It's ok just to show up and "lurk" (listen), or ask a specific question you've always wanted to ask another member you may see in attendance, using the private side-band instant messaging function built into the chat software. ;)
In order to provide for the most enjoyable experience for our members with the highest on-line performance and reliability, the chat system software we use is professionally built and hosted externally. We'd like to advise our host server in advance as to approximately how many members will be logging in and attending.
Planning timings for a world wide real time event is challenging, so your particular time zone may not be the best or most convenient for you. As we get a better sense of attendance and which world wide geographic time zones are represented the most, we may adjust the start times of future chat nights to provide a fairer sense of balance. If interest is high enough, we may even offer more regionally oriented chat evenings, specifically set to accommodate those individual time zones.
As with any new feature we add, we'll be monitoring this new addition to the site to get a sense of popularity and usage. If you try it, we'd appreciate any feedback and comments on it to make sure we're giving our members not only the functionality they'd like, but providing it at the highest quality level of service delivery. :)
Regards,
Badger
