it would be nice if we were able to create our own rooms though, so like friends could talk without having to be interupted by people whom they may not wish to talk to.

Now that I can agree with.

Think about what your proposing people. I can see maybe one other room being made, but allowing even 3 or 4 more? No. The mods wouldn't be able to watch all of them all the time, and sooner then later they would be being abused with people either flaming or cybering or doing something else that I don't even want to think about out of the way of mods and everyone else.

Status rooms also could be seen as elitist, but then again, senior members are meant to be elistest so I could see that being done. Remember though, that would also be putting a lot of attention on yourselves and that if any of you got into a fight in your room or anything, it would be very simple for the mods to find out who it was and what it was about.

Really though, in my opinion we have the default room and anymore would really just not be needed besides staff rooms.

Besides, the more the merrier. I like the idea of having one big room so that any member who wants to can participate in the chat without having to feel left out. Even yesterday when I got on the chat with 13 others, it was cool to just get on and kick it with random members from the site that I've never personally talked to before.

Their is a default room, a moderator room, and a room for the RPG mod discussions. Also there is a feature to create your own room, so if you want to invite friends to it, that option is always open.

To be honest, I'd never noticed the chat room until now.
I can't see extra rooms being needed yet. Maybe in another years time when the forum has grown a bit bigger, and more people are coming then there may be a need for it. Just not yet.

Actually, that is what their talking about. Members don't have the correct permissions to create rooms. (For good reason imo)

Just make an IRC channel.

RPG room=never used. Can an admin please replace it with a room where me and my starship crew can seek out new life, discover new civilizations and boldly go where no one has gone before?

I think the RPG room is fine. But maybe calling it Dungeon Masters would be better. Ambi, get the password.

My idea is that there should be 3 rooms and 3 rooms only. That way you can narrow down how many are in each room.
