Tantor mentioned in the thread about if the staff were doing a good job that we don't really know each other and I commented that back when this board was
TJB we had a community chat and didn't suffer from that problem. I used to be able to boast that I knew each and every member of the faction but that is no
longer the case, there are Padawans, Knights and even a couple of Masters that I've never spoken to let alone rped with. I knew there are some of you who
don't like the idea of a community chat and of course there are always those that ruin it for everyone else. I always enjoyed meeting the new people who
joined and they were always made to feel welcome and immediately felt included in the community, it was also great to come into chat and see all the regulars.
Some people believe that the chat takes away from rping and OOC activity at the board and TGC but I've never seen that happen and it's usually the
people who don't join chat that say that. I know though that chat isn't for everyone but I don't see why those who could use the chat as a useful
tool shouldn't be able to use it. In my view the chat brought TJB together as a community, it brought personality to the faceless board and allowed
it's members to gel OOC and therefore IC as well.
