Is there some particular reason I am unaware of that the Aces High community virtually ignores some peoples posts, whereas, if a <quote> popular person <unquote> posts, you jump all over it? Curious.

I don't think anyone is ignored, if it doesn't spark any comment it's just a lead balloon...h'mmm I've launched a few of those (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Humble is right, I don't think anyone is ignored. I have had a couple of posts come and go with out a response. Sometimes they don't strike anyone's fancy. :-)

Ok, I think I understand. I just put a lot of work into our web site & thought that the chat room on our site would have been beneficial to the community. Guess I don't need to spend any money for a server.
I will thank Ozark and Staga for checking out the site and for their comments.

Apache,
Don't pack up your teepee & go away yet.
Sometimes it takes a day or so to get a good responce.
I've noticed that a lot of people here tend to not bother with posts that only have a few replies. Once it breaks that 15 to 20 mark however the thread gets hot.
Hang in there man. As for me I checked out the site. Looks like you are off to a good start. Hang with it, at this point you have nothing to lose.

I have posted a few times and only had a few responses and other posts I got more. I have no reason to believe that it is because of someones popularity, maybe what was said just wasnt interesting to most.

LOL.
Question: What is on the back of Vaseline jars in California??
Answer: Pictures of missing Gerbils
Can I get any further off topic?? (one wonders)

I too checked it out. Sometimes I look at things, but don't have the time for a fully-developed comment (for instance, if I am at work). I read every post every day, so trust me, your stuff is getting read by someone. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)
As has been said, sometimes it takes a while to gather some answers. FWIW, I hit your site 5 minutes after you posted on it, no kidding! Didn't have the time to stop to chat, sorry. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/frown.gif)
Site looked fine (though I only took a cursory glance). Can you direct me to what you would like feedback about? Will be glad to provide comment on anything you like...

i'm curious....
is the HTH ladder important to you guys?
what would ya like on it?

let us know! (http://www.mikeangel.com/ah/)
btw, Exile has got the registration and the login process constructed and working. (but not released yet).

Apache, you are now one up on every other BB chatroom I have visited, Kieren was there, first time I actually ever logged on and someone was there.
This kind of chatroom is tough, I never ran into anyone in the one for B127-2 at bombs-away.net or the one that was setup for SDOhELL so if traffic is slow do not despair.
I did bookmark your site though.
------------------
When did they put this thing in here and WTF is it for?
-
Apache, try posting another 974 more posts. By then you might get noticed (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)...As you can see I've got a few more hundred posts to go (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)...

Apache...
start your post with an insult...that usually gets interest..
or a fake annoucement of a new version..
talk about your pet maybe..
Something like this
"Ack Staring Chute Shooting dweeb with pet raccoon live at AH chat"...
that will bring em in..
or you could flatter HTC a bit...people always jump in to support that.. (and lobby for planes...)
There are other tactics to be heard but these are a good start..

So true! Lets see here, The Topic could be..
My pet frog got squeeshed badly today
<First paragraph could go like this...>
Today while attending the veterans luncheon, my pet frog roosevelt hopped out of my pocket and got squished by a trailways bus...
<and so on, maybe throw in that hes on life support, and might lose a leg, that'll get the replies! (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)>

I just checked it out, it's a nice site. Somehow I must have missed the post about it though? (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/confused.gif) I try to read everyone's posts, so I don't know how I missed this. I'll try to stop by during the day to see if anyone is there. (Wasn't anyone at 2:30 Am PST, but go figure. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif) )

When I check this board every morning It can take me from 20 mins to half an hour just to read it. I dont ignore anyone but dont really have the time to respond every where I would like.

Hangtime and Pongo I laughed so hard I cried.
Apache, nice site!
However I personally get quite enough chat while in the arena. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Apache;
Try posting up this thread "We Need a Padlock View (No Whiners Please)"
Then keep your head low. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Apache, if you really want a chat room to work, you have to organize and mediate some discussions. This communitee is way to small to "drop in". Try arranging a night of "Wingman Tactics", or "Guns Defense", or a free for all "Design Session". The first sessions may be slow, but who knows, maybe that was the way Jackedin.com started? (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)
Oh and if I try and get into the chat, I get the following error:
Trying TCP connection to memberchat.xoom.com:8900 ...
>> The remote machine has accepted the network request ... please wait.
Disconnected:
This user name requires a password. Please enter the correct password or
- pick a different user name.
Tried a few, but no go. I also got something about a last menu error.
