Administrators Gail Posted January 14, 2011 Administrators Posted January 14, 2011 For those of you wishing to, Bravus has set up a new Clubadventist group on Facebook. This one has a group chat feature. To join, you will need to contact someone already in the group to invite you in. The Unofficial Adventist Forum Quote Isaiah 32:17 And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever.
Moderators Bravus Posted January 14, 2011 Moderators Posted January 14, 2011 The ideal thing for a chat room - the only way it works really - is if there is always someone there. If people can drop in any time for a chat, then it becomes a community. If it's something that has to be scheduled, it tends to sputter along or sputter out. I have hopes that, given lots of people here play Facebook games and do other things that involve having Facebook open for long periods, we might be able to move in that direction. One final thing - that group shouldn't draw time and attention away from here. There are many advantages of doing forum posting type activities here rather than on Facebook, including more control. If the originator of a Facebook thread deletes his/her post the whole thread is lost - we've lost some good discussions that way in a Facebook group I'm a member of. People will do what they will do, but my recommendation would be to keep Facebook for chat and here for forum type discussions. Quote Truth is important
Moderators Bravus Posted January 14, 2011 Moderators Posted January 14, 2011 PS I don't own or administer the chat group, I just set it up. I believe any member can add new members. Quote Truth is important
Administrators Gail Posted January 14, 2011 Author Administrators Posted January 14, 2011 Yes, I think that any member that is already a member of the group can invite. Quote Isaiah 32:17 And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever.
Moderators LynnDel Posted January 14, 2011 Moderators Posted January 14, 2011 Thanks for setting it up, Bravus. The brief chat a few moments ago was great. LD Quote LD
