What happened to the chat room ?

[PaulScott]

Yes it was late last year or early this year they did quite a bit of changes, I was looking around here and it was down quite a bit while they switched everything over and I officially joined BYC soon after. perhaps they could re launch it and make it adults only and have a seperte area where if you want to talk politics or some heated topic it's at your own risk and you must click an acknowledgment to that so you can't blame someone else if your feelings get hurt....

ermm , 2 thoughts on that for me they should just Ban anyone who breaks the rules no coming back , no pleading or crying in forums , or just let the chat go as it may . second is people need to get a tougher skin and not get all butt hurt so easy , when did the general public become so easily offended and soft ?

Anyhow i understand why they deleted chat here , but personally i liked the chat you could ask a question and get a quick response , or just chat about your chickens and what breeds you likes the best i remember one Lady that had the most gorgeous Barred rocks and every time id see her id ask " hows them Dominiques doing " lol she would get so pretend mad of course back them all i had was Game chickens and was not allowed to talk about them at all .. even though i never did anything bad with em .

So how about we see .. how many people would like to see the chat back and who wants it to stay gone ?
pipe up people let hear what you think !

The decision to remove the chat room was not taken lightly. It was only after intense scrutiny and Staff discussion that the decision was reached.

There is a thread about it here
