    The forums, probably, because I tend to get really, really bored really, really quickly in chat. I used to be in there ALL the time, though, and I've had some really fun times in there.

    Yeah. I'm in chat for the most part, but I don't chat all that often.

    Well, it used to forums, but once I started going to the chatroom more frequently, I don't post here as often.

    Lynx: *points to the top of your window* Forums, 'sup.

    The forums and the chatroom are two different things for the single community. I like both, a lot. I'd be very annoyed if either of them were to disappear, and having one without the other would just plain suck.

    #eoff is great because you can chat to people who aren't often around in the forums, and often if an oldbie comes back, they'll go to the chatroom first (eg. Dan Walkie turns up once every six months, but the forum-only members would never know it), and of course Snizz is in #eoff, which gives it massive points, at least when he's active, which varies from month to month. It's more casual in chat so you don't have to freak out about as many rules and so forth when it comes to 'spam', for example.

    I don't need to explain much about why the forums are cool because anyone who views this thread probably already knows.

    At the moment, most of the people in chat are regulars in the forums, which is always a good thing in my opinion. Chat is a far, far better way to get to know people on a more personal level.

    Look at it this way - If I want to discuss something, I'll go to the forums. If I want to get to know people, I'll go to chat. Both can be fun, though, so it's all good.

    I prefer chat because it's a much easier way to make fun of n00bs. just one typo and I can be like "LOL SUP N00B LERN TO SPEL". whereas if I do that on the forums I'll get yelled at by Leeza.

    and chat provides me with a good medium on which to talk to my friends. because I don't have all the PM space that all my friends do (because most of them are CKs wtf), plus I prefer the chatroom setting to a one-on-one conversation through private messaging. et cetera.

    gotta be chat, im used to be in there all the time, but now im seeing how long i can go without it.

    Chat is more personal, you get to really know the person you talking to, much more than you can in the forums. Chat ftw! :P
