The ones who contribute the most to the chat are generally the ones who haven't competed or have retired/become sick of it.
Just thought I'd point that out, fwiw >________>
Oh? Let's see...

From what I see, out of the top 17 chatters, 16 have submitted stuff this year, and 8 have submitted stuff
this month. So...I don't know where you're getting such silly ideas... >_>
For those of you who are wondering why I made the cutoff at a seemingly arbitrary value, note that there is a rather large gap between the number of lines cherry has spoken and the number of lines upth (at #18) has spoken.
Ya! Get yer butt in thee chatroom! You are punished, now you must go into the chatroom for the rest of your days! -"Said by the one who was banned from the chatroom at one time"
JK! It is your free will to get in if you want, but just go in if you never had seen people at all. Get to know the members here better. Don't be so shy. Just visit and see how ya like it. I guarantee it is fun in there.
We could always just remove access to the forums and require that all communication be through the chatroom. Just a thought.
Also the above guarantee is not guaranteed, especially if you visit while everyone is at lolschool or lolwork, or is lolslp. Just because there are 30 people in the chatroom doesn't mean that there's 30 people
active.
But seriously, it's a great place. I probably wouldn't be here past the first time I 0p-ed Advance 3 times if it weren't for the chat. And it's fun.
I'm sure I've mentioned this in chat more than once, but my original intent was to submit stats once and never come back.
Why do you all keep me here >_>If I hadn't joined the chatroom I probably would have left here by the end of 2006.
There's a chatroom?
*flyby shot
Yeah I was surprised too :O
Note: If there's a spelling mistake or a wrong word somewhere in the post, blame the fact that I got logged off before I could finish posting and had to retype a good deal of it.
