For those members who have been here a while, you might remember the various attempts at having a chatroom with CKA... basically for those who just want to relax, have some fun, and get to know other members. We also had a trivia game that was pretty popular (and always good for a laugh), and who could forget 'CKA Bot'?

Anyway, undesirable events (who will remain nameless) caused the popularity to decline and it slipped out of use. I think, that it'd be a good time to try it out again, for both the newer members and the old.

For those who don't know the deal, here's the gist - it was your standard IRC chat, but it also had a web-based interface as well, so anyone can join in. It ran pretty smoothly, and it was pretty much anything goes - it's a hell of a lot better than trying to chat in the forums. We also had a seperate trivia chatroom, which had an automated program that asked questions and kept scores. This was all pretty much handled by the members, so there's not a lot of extra work for the forum Admins/Moderators.

I'm hoping to help out in organizing things with Canadaka, so the main thing now is to see if there's enough interest in it from members.

The chat was a lot of fun while it lasted, though I don't remember why it faded away. I'd like to see it come back. I might do better at trivia now that Constantinople isn't around :-)

OK, maybe it'll be named :wink:

Nevertheless, that's not an issue at this point, and I think it's worth bringing back.

Count me in. Sometimes I just want to kill time and brain cells. Chat would be good at these times.

Yeah, sounds like fun. I'm not much of a geek though. If it weren't for lily I wouldn't know how to submit pictures and videos (so blame her) and I am having a helluva time figuring out the whole Cyber nations thing let alone actually participating.
