    Default This weekend (8th of April) come join me in #eoff!!

    That's right people. It's everybody's favourite barren wasteland that doesn't receive nearly enough love these days, and I want you all to come help me bring some life to it.

    The most recent drunk thread got me thinking about our old drunk threads, which were very often screen caps of people saying incredibly hilarious and embarrassing things while drunk in the #eoff chat room. The same thing went for the old 'out of context' threads. Some of my fondest memories from the forum were conversations I had with people in chat, and Night Fury and I never would have spoken quite as much if she hadn't decided to wander in there one day.

    I'm going to stay in there all weekend long but my timezone isn't the best, so I'm hoping you guys help me out and make sure that we can make this weekend a fun and active one in #eoff. So whether you're always lurking in chat already, used to frequent it and stopped, have never been in there before, or simply always get disheartened by seeing "#eoff has been dead for 11 hours and 30 minutes", pop in for as long as you can, say hello, and see if you don't end up sticking around for longer.

    The FAQ for chat is right here, which helps you set it up from an IRC client, or even your phone. Otherwise there's the handy chat link right at the top of the forum which lets you join from your browser.

    I look forward to hopefully seeing you all in there this weekend!

    If I can make it between working on papers, I'll say hello.

    There was a time (around 2010 or 2011 I think) that for a fair few months I had some fantastic times in chat, back when it was really active.

    A couple of years later I'm pretty sure chat led to the now incredibly popular and famous EoFF Christmas eve eve drunk Skype chat (book your place this year now folks!), that led to me meeting Jinx and Denmark, that led to me meeting Shauna and Matt, that culminated in the most incredible golf tournament the world has seen to date, Singh, what a God among us....a wedding was also involved somewhere in there I think. So yeah I owe chat a lot!

    So yeah, think I may be able to make sometime Saturday evening, even if briefly.

    If you think it's barren, you haven't really been there a lot.

    can you hear me in the void?

    Not as active as it used to be, then. Either way, I couldn't tell you how many times over the last year or so I've jumped in just to see that no one has spoken in there for over 8 hours.

    The point of this isn't to argue over semantics, it's to try and get people who haven't been in chat before, or used to go in there and don't anymore, to come and check it out and have fun.

    To be fair, I used to frequent chat rather... frequently (yes, I know that's a bad construction), but I sort of dropped out the loop.

    I kinda want to hear Jinx tell me stories from Hatoful Boyfriend, so now I'm even more curious.

    I used to always hop in to say hello but it's usually empty when I do. I'll see about getting some cider pops and jumping in for the hello's of it.

    You need to hang around for more than two minutes. I often see you come in, say hello, and then just as you leave people respond to you. :P
