As you may have noticed, we've just implemented a much-requested chatroom. It is quite simple and has few fancy features, but for the moment we just want it to work!
Anyway, have at it, and post your thoughts, feature requests, effusive thanks to the tech team, etc., right here. Thanks!
Chatroom

More displacement activity
yes it works fine!
good move, thanks.
booted out the chatroom by robomoderator
I just asked Mr Pid the following question
'You at work?'
instantly the chatroom window went blank and I got this message
'You have been kicked out. Further abuse will result in permanent banning.'
had to log back into the chatroom.
Promise not to mention work again!
Work is a four letter word
I hope Badger's experience wasn't because of anything I said.
I did respond to the question, even though it was just to say I had to go, because of that dreaded four letter word...
Conversation is always more interesting than recitation, so speak your mind and not someone else's.
well, badger...
that's very strange, and not the first report I've seen of strange deployment of kicked-out tools. I'm gonna report this. Thanks.
here's the word
It's been taken offline for the moment to see if it's related to some technical problems elsewhere on the site, it being one of relatively few new things that may have been a factor. More as I know it...
..searchin...
the chat room's down, so let me use this forum. first off, I am new at this on-line stuff and since my work just gave me a lovely Macbook, I feel the need to sit in bed and use it. I am searching for some specific older shows from my way back machine days. My tapes are shot and I have no where else to turn (heavy sigh). Anyone have a decent copy of Penn State 1980? It's my favorite China-Rider. My tape wasn't great and had my friend constantly looking for a lighter or bumping into the mike stand.... Anybody have a copy?
Lonely
i think we all had problems being alone there from time to time

where did it go?
Bring it back soon, please and thank you.
If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear to man as it is, infinite.

intrepid dead.net tech team
is trying to figure out what's causing assorted technological misbehavior, which may or may not ultimately have anything to do with the chat room but experiments are in progress. Your distress is duly noted!
the site
Is kind of losing energy, it has been a grate place. And I guess things will ebb and flow and come and go. I miss What Happened on This Day In Deadhead History? and the chatroom.Hope everyone is having a fine weekend.

losing energy?
well in a way I feel the same, but then there do seem to be a whole lot of new folks appearing here too which is great to see...we used to be a little gang and now we are a big community here which must be good...but I think that is showing up some weaknesses in the site design..it is getting harder and harder to keep up and still very slow to explore a forum....maybe a shake up would shake us up too.
The chat room was a really welcome addition.though may it come back soon!
yeah...
I think it's safe to say that a lot of technical issues are being scrutinized, especially as things like listening parties and chat rooms get added to the mix. I share your pain about the system performance issues; I trust that they are temporary, but I understand the aggravation. It's always something! Thank you for your patience...
I asked and then I pleaded, then it was there but now it is gone
Ixtlanvet thinks it's just bad timing...I just really want a certain tape. [really]
When will it return?
i was wonderin'

Looking forward
I am looking forward to re-introduction of the Chat Room.
Think of it like this, there were many songs that the band stopped playing, but they came back. Dark Star (7/13/84 to 10/8/89), Black Throated Wind ('74 to '90), Casey Jones (84 to 92), Loose Lucy (74 to 90), etc. Just like the songs continue playing ... Ok lost my train of thought on this ...
All good things, in all good time.
Still no news?
then
Bob

I miss the chatroom
sorry, posted to soon. I enjoy getting in touch with heads all around. Immediate satisfaction is something that chatrooms give. A good conversation was also one of the reasons I loved the shows. The chat, kind of resembles the lots...etc.
I will make some inquiries
I would expect that everyone's spread a little thin, but I'll see if I can get a status update.
It still says that it's down
Am I missing something? 'Cause I'd love to participate.
your day job
thanx to all those involved technically and otherwise keeping this forum and entire website up and operational....ur efforts are appreciated very much!
as for the chat room...it was/is a GRATE idea and hope it's back online soon.
stay safe and feel good!
>><<<< :>
I miss it too!
I liked the chat room, hope it's up and running soon!Peace
Is it really back?
Like, for good?
Or is it just a test?
Conversation is always more interesting than recitation, so speak your mind and not someone else's.
I have heard...
it's back! Though no one seemed to be at home when I looked in a minute ago.
This is what I get
when I enter chatroom...The page you requested does not exist. For your convenience, a search was performed using the query chatrooms chat 9.
re:This is what I get
yup, me too... i thought they just were keeping me out...
looking for a friend
does anyone know danita murray? she was looking for me but didn't leave a number!

Is it OK to allow anonymous guests in the Chat Room? Not sure.
Anonymous chat access
I share cosmicbadger's concern for potential problems here, but have somewhat mixed emotions. We were always free to attempt to strike up random conversations in the lot or the show without identifying ourselves, and while the chatroom context is similar (to me,) it does lack the physical proximity/available security dimension of an in person encounter.
Perhaps a solution might be to require that a virtual token be delivered via email and re-presented to the site for anyone desiring to post in the chatroom anonymously. That would create some semblance of accountability at least. It's hard to imagine any possible problem caused by someone who merely wanted to eavesdrop, but not actively participate. It's not like there can be any assumption of privacy in what is effectively a public space.
Conversation is always more interesting than recitation, so speak your mind and not someone else's.
the anonymous person in the chatroom thing
I have a feeling this is a leftover fro the KPFA chat, but also I think it's worth letting it run a bit and see what happens. We can always turn it off later, I would guess.
anonymous people
until recentley i though you had to at least be a registerd member to have access to most of this site,, so ,,.i guise not,,... be careful what you say and who you speek to ,,,
