WeWillNotBeForsaken	I agree in theory with a chat room (and would partake in donations if really serious) BUT: One of the good things about this site is that whatever is written is categorized and stored thereby allowing new/old users to read through material that can be very helpful. Chat rooms would take all that away.

Do you think if we have a Chat we will not post here anymore. I don't think so. Suppose some one needs help right away. Chat room can help that induividial. There is alot one can learn from another in a live room much more then reading old information. This is live people after all!!! So much can come out of it!

lamed vavnik OFFLINE Fresh Boarder Karma: 1	i personally think that a (totally private frum only gye based )chat room would help me a lot . i feel it would have saved me from my last fall if i would have had some "real time" help ,on the spot. i should have called someone but i don't feel enuf trust yet . a chat would change that .

Halevi OFFLINE Fresh Boarder Karma: 0	That's awesome news, Guard!! I know I sent you that PM the other day about chat rooms but that was before I had seen these threads. Clearly it's something the people want and need. I think people are also forgetting that these chat rooms can be used for daily 12-step meetings. That would be huge!!

There are actually a number of chat rooms on IRC that are set up for this very purpose.

You have set times for meetings... let's say 6.30am, 3.30pm, and 7pm EST daily... and there is a chairman. People who want to share (purely optional) can indicate they want to do so and the others remain silent as that person talks about how they are doing or what they are struggling with... etc. It can be a great soundboard for your concerns. You can really unload.

See this post for an example: rehab-my-site.com/guardureyes/forum/index.php?topic=575.0

When you say "others remain silent" do you mean this is a "talking" chat, or just a "typing" chat?

There's gotta be some way to record and store all the chats, so that anyone can look through them later.
R' Guard is this an option?
