The pings i'm referring to are sort of general information/you might want to see pings that don't require an immediate response. If someone wants to respond, they can. And a chat regular shouldn't have to keep their computer open and online 24/7 just to be able to catch up on messages. | |
| Apr 6, 2015 at 11:04 | comment | added | James | I disagree. If someone wants to be pinged and involved in the chat discussion then they should be in the chat room. Otherwise, you give people no "escape" from chat - up to 7 days they can be "disturbed". You stated: "sometimes want to leave a message for one of the chat regulars, who hasn't been seen in a few hours (people do have lives)" Yes, they do have lives, so don't ping them when they have left chat to do something else.. I can see why it's useful to the one pinging, but not for the one being pinged. | |
