The members page is where conversations begin. Type a message in the chat box above, watch replies arrive in real time, and see who else is online in the list beside it. There are no long forms and no waiting around, just people talking.
Whether you want a relaxed hello, a friendly debate or someone to talk to after a long day, this is a good place to start. Many members simply drop in for a few minutes between other things, and that is perfectly fine.
