WalkNTalk View Profile History	Chat Rooms Posted : 5 Oct, 2024 10:51 AM I'm more interested in the blogs myself, and it is only us old goats coming on here. Not many are active on the blogs. I guess it reflects the church at large. Fewer and fewer young people. Post Reply

regO07 View Profile History	Chat Rooms Posted : 7 Oct, 2024 02:44 PM Hi Ontnet! I found that curious as well. It does seem like only one room... and so I wonder if it's an age thing. Even these message boards are far under-utilized (which I find unfortunate), but I feel that may be due to other factors. Post Reply
WalkNTalk View Profile History	Chat Rooms Posted : 7 Oct, 2024 06:22 PM Of other factors, there are definitely other factors as well. But really, how many want to be on? Being on here is like Paul calling out Peter. (Galatians 2) Or like Acts 15:36-39. So, some believers may not like being on the blogs because they have their religious toes stepped on or are happier in error or just don't like in-fighting and controversy. Some are just here, because they are bored to death while waiting for a message to arrive to their inbox. Surely, there are not many young people that get on here and it is the same old people all the time. Not much excitement here. Not many contributors. And not everyone is into the game of being on here. Some people have better things to do. Post Reply
Handyman62 View Profile History	Chat Rooms Posted : 7 Oct, 2024 09:59 PM I really never understood the draw of chatroom's. It's seems the only way you could participate is if you can type really, really fast. But even then when others are participating there's so many messages scrolling by that it's nearly impossible to keep up. You could meet with someone alone in a breakout room, but how do you convince someone to do that with all the messages flying by? Post Reply
Ontnet View Profile History	Chat Rooms Posted : 8 Oct, 2024 05:58 PM @reg007, for me I can't locate forums using the app, only on desktop can I access chat and forums. Post Reply
Ontnet View Profile History	Chat Rooms Posted : 10 Oct, 2024 02:19 PM for the prayer chat room, I've seen a little action there, folk posting short prayers. Not people in the room at the same time, but there's action. Perhaps just show up, post a prayer whether it's a general one or in response to another. Post Reply
regO07 View Profile History	Chat Rooms Posted : 13 Oct, 2024 06:54 PM I do sometime access on my phone, but now with a downloaded app. Either way whether desktop or not, I can just click the arrow next to CHAT and get the option for Live Chat or Forums. As far as leaving a message on the Live Chats, don't they disappear after a certain amount of time? Sometime I'll look in a forum with no one there and never find any leftover chatter. Post Reply
regO07 View Profile History	Chat Rooms Posted : 13 Oct, 2024 06:57 PM Also, just tried to send you a message but it wasn't possible... wanted to share that I'm from the same place as you. Living out west so long, it's always nice to see someone from back home! :-) Post Reply
