I have set up a very rough and ready chat room for members.
At present it is running on a freebie version of the software. If it proves successful then I'll buy the software and make the chat room a permanent feature. (The freebie version contains adverts which you can happily ignore or pretend are not there) ;-)
Also, this version only allows a max of 10 people in the chat room at a time.

Not exactly my cup of tea at my typing speed - other visitors would fall asleep waiting for my reply to them - but I figured I was probably safe enough at this time of night, so stuck my head in.
Found the layout reasonably easy to understand, and it works OK, so for those who can exceed the dizzy speed of 4 wpm, go for it.

If this is of interest for those with Norfolk research, I'm happy to be around at specific times/days to assist.

I would certainly like a chat room, and give any help, or perhaps mores the case,
receive any help with tracing my ancestors.

Is it possible to rig it so that people have to use their normal forum name?

Well, it must be full or has gone walkabouts, as I've just clicked the link, entered Diane GS in the box and then clicked Enter or whatever.
My name disappeared into outer space and I was left just staring at the same page. Clicked Help and had a read, then tried again with same result.
Maybe only lets fellas in?????
Best Wishes,
Diane

There was nobody home, so although I often talk to myself, I left.
Sounds a good idea though, when it's up and running.

Glad it's not just me, I might start getting some sort of inferiority complex
Best wishes
