The problem is not Fortune - who is the main Administrator of these forums - or me. I have decided not to have a chat at this moment because:

1. A professional chat system requires a certain use of system resources. At this time, we don't have sufficient funds to have a chat on the website. If in the future we have more visitors and much more money, we'll surely invest in professional chat systems and other services.

2. A chat needs moderators who stay continuously in the channels. I don't want to have completely uncontrolled - even if dynamic - content into the website.

3. There are just a few persons who are posting in the forums. I fear that adding a chat system would prevent many of the members from posting here.

That's basically it. And Fortune is working on other personal projects, but she is constantly monitoring the website. Simply, sometimes we use the same PC to log-in and we don't switch account every time we check the forums.

BTW, thanks for the suggestion to all of you.
