Guest Crymson Report post Posted February 6, 2007 (edited) Has this been tried before? It seems that it'd be a whole lot less slow, and more involved. I know they do it on the big Pistons forum.

Offsides 21 Report post Posted February 6, 2007 I have always thought this...which is why I don't really go to the GDT too much. We did chat like..once...it was fun...but not again...hmm? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HockeyCrazy3033 168 Report post Posted February 6, 2007 I think it'd be lots of fun and great. Maybe it goes really slow or something? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

eva unit zero 271 Report post Posted February 6, 2007 If we used a chat, we could never review the GDT posts again Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Saran 1 Report post Posted February 6, 2007 GDT's are a tradition ... even though Aflac isnt around lately with the Chat we couldnt have his kick ass intros ... Plus last year near the end of the season we had a chatroom up but it just wasn't the same Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VladyIBELIEVE16 257 Report post Posted February 6, 2007 Matt's been working on the site - I guess that's one of the remaining features that he's finishing up. Once the new site has been completely revamped there will be a chatroom unless he's nixed that idea. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Plus last year near the end of the season we had a chatroom up but it just wasn't the same Aflac could still do his GDTs. The two would hardly be mutually exclusive.

Aussie_Wing 354 Report post Posted February 6, 2007 Forgive me for being a noob, but whats a GDT? Game day thread. I really enjoy the GDT’s and I prefer them to a chat room. And plus the match threads can go for 100+ pages during the playoffs, you can’t beat that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Crymson Report post Posted February 6, 2007 This was a suggestion to create a chatroom, not to replace the GDT. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jdog19 0 Report post Posted February 6, 2007 Not so much of a vote against a chat, as an endorsement of at least keeping a side GDT... Those of us behind firewalls don't necessarily have access to chat rooms, as they are frequently blocked. Discussion boards however, are typically not, depending on the site. Just so long as some of you keep updating the GDT faster than the Yahoo scoreboard, chat away! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wingsdiehard13 33 Report post Posted February 6, 2007 I personally like the GDT's. They are kind of like a tradition Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Matt 1,048 Report post Posted February 6, 2007 The chatroom feature is currently offline for the time being. Everything concerning the new site is getting fasttracked over the next few weeks and there are new licenses that need to be purchased (latest forum software, chat support, etc.) and implimented very soon.

puckloo39 5,686 Report post Posted February 6, 2007 I prefer the GDT, but that's just me. The only issue with the GDT is the server stalling on us all the time -- usually just as something interesting happens to comment on, and by the time it comes back, who cares?? I did the chat a couple of times, but some of the participants were so off-topic, I logged out and went back to the GDT. Again, just my experience. I would try it again, if you all want to.

HenrikRules40 14 Report post Posted February 6, 2007 I feel like everyone would have trouble tracking my witty banter in a chatroom. Really, it's for everyone else's benefit that I post in the GDT Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
