    Where there's a group of likeminded people with a strong subject in common, e.g. gardens, the kind of chat you get is usually all around the bits and pieces that we've got going on and doing in our own bit of heaven.
    The type of chat that would be going on would be purely that.
    The one i go onto is so 'nice', it isn't abused in any way shape or form - but, you can only go by your own personal experiences.

      Me, Ziggy, and Aesculus aren't "moderate" by any standard, Hydro:D:D I really don't think a chat room is needed on GC. Having a Chat Room, in my opinion, runs the real risk of splitting the members into those who would keep posting and those using the chat room, with the consequential drop in posts. Conversations posted in the chat room would be lost as soon as posted and therefore a lot a knowledge for general distribution could be lost. I don't think GC is limited without a chat room, on the contrary I believe that it's a saving grace. Gardeners Corner is, in my opinion, a special Forum in the way the posts are are numerous, diverse, humourous, and knowledgeable. Anyone can retrieve those posts over any time period they want, you can't do that in a chat room. We have the pm facility for one to one conversation. We're different and the best, otherwise why are we here?.........lets stay different.:D
