some people feel offended when you send them personal messages

It was suggested a couple years ago but the EB team felt it would slow down the system too much, as I recall.

Hi An Dang,

a chat would be nice indeed, but :

> we wouldn't capitalize on our members experience (messages are not recorded on chats)

> we are unable to moderate a worldwide chat 24-7 (that's just impossible)

> it would require a complete redesign of our server structure, and it's too complicated for us at the moment.

This said, I didn't say no. Just a matter of time, I guess ...
