Posted on 09/18/2005 1:39:39 AM PDT by wallace144

Is there any real-time chat place for FReepers-like Mirc or Yahoo or anything?

freerepublic2 is a yahoo group dedicated to FreeRepublic, but rarely do people gather there to chat.

We're not a chat, but an active forum:
www.waronterror.ws

Many familiar and like minded folk there.
Mostly military.

Thanks for the info. It's a shame there's no dedicated live chat channel. I wonder why that is.

live threads & F5 is the closet thing I know of. as far as "live chat" though, I don't know of anything.

FR used to have a chat room, which split several times and is no more, that I know of. And then, There was the ALLEY, but that blew up even before the chat rooms went bust.

Yes it was! :-)

I had a different nic in the FR chat room, so you may not recognize me, but I was there.

I have yahoo. haven't used Mirc in years. the biggest problem I could see with live chat would be keeping trolls & other disruptors at bay. I'd imagine it would be a mod's nightmare.

I usually don't chat online much, but when i do want to chat, I'm always looking for like-minded people. I like to separate the wheat from the chaff so to speak. And as for trolls, its always fun to watch them get torn apart by FReepers- or anyone with an IQ above 23.

It is still a contingency site when FR goes down I believe. Back then, before JR got the new servers FR would crash frequently. It was more like a bar room atmosphere, music and all sometimes if you had mic and speakers, nothing serious, just a meeting place where Freepers would go waiting for FR to get back on line.

Sounds like fun. Just what I was asking about. Throw some topless women in there and I'd never leave the house. Just kidding.
