To Hell With Search, What Happened to Chat?
Back in the old days, I used to be involved with some intense conversations with the likes of jar, Phat, Jon, and Lithodid Man.
Is there any chance chat can be reenabled? I miss my old friends.

The idea of the sacred is quite simply one of the most conservative notions in any culture, because it seeks to turn other ideas - uncertainty, progress, change - into crimes.

As I move closer and closer to productization I have had to shed features that depend upon someone else's product, and chat was one of them. As all my time is currently taken up, I need someone with the proper skills to volunteer to implement a native chat feature, else it will be a while before it can be done. Anyone considering this role should understand that the requirements in skills and time are prodigious.
Understood, I just miss talking to my friends, especially now that the exiles are back and Dreamcatcher will cease to exist on January 1.
I do not mean this as a criticism of your tremendous labor in maintaining this site, which I deeply respect and am grateful for, I simply miss the chat function.
Additionally, if I am unable to do the work required to enable this function, then I am hardly in a position to lament its demise. Am in a bit of life where my attention is drawn elsewhere at the moment but if no one else steps up in the next few months please feel free to let me know how I can help you in any way.
