Detailing NY

Does any one ever use this thing:D

Lets see if we could get a time & day when we know we can log on and chat about detailing.

I see all the names logged in on autopia, it should be fun and helpful for people that need quick advice.

all we need is a day & time. for example tuesdays @ 9pm

lets see if we could get this going

NY detailer, they chat every Monday and Wednesday night at 9:30 EST. Last week we had like 10 people in there at once.



I'm surprised you never heard about it.



Well now you and anyone else that didn't realize it, knows.
 
Considering the past, um, "issues" with detailing chats, I still don't understand why the Autopia chat is not promoted. Instead, mention of it is relegate to the unofficial Autopia Black Hole - Off-Topic.



I think there should be a perma-sticky reminding all Autopians to chat with us at a coordinated time. Currently we use the Yo Steve chat time of Monday and Wednesday nights at 9:30PM Eastern. That's fine by me but we could chat any ol' time if others want it changed.



</whine for now>
 
many of us chat on IM anyways on odd days



I personally don't have the time to chatting everyday. It's difficult to keep up when you're doing so many things at once.



cool resource for those who need their questions answered immediately



some people don't like to chat though
 
Check Off-Topic for chat announcements. We always bring up a thread with a link to chat when we are going to be chatting.

As Steve mentioned, many of us have AOL Instant Messenger, which is a free program that lets you do 1:1 chatting and also allows for group chat rooms :).

We had a thread back a few months ago but I can't find it now. Anyone else have any luck?

The problem I have with AIM chats is that they are unscheduled and not inclusive. Basically its the cyber version of a phone call. Not group friendly.



With regularly scheduled chats, its more like a conference call. We all go to one place and meet everyone at once. That's why it should be promoted; so everyone knows when and where to meet.



I like PFG's idea of having more frequent group chats. Two nights a week isn't alot. If you're busy those nights you miss out. I'd like to see them 3-5 times a week at the same time. That way more people can participate as their schedule and desire dictates.
