Is there any Bond chat somewhere? I have seen the IRC forum but dont seen any chat room or anything.

I mean an chat, not an disscussion board. Sure, this is the best place to talk about Bond, but I liked to chat in a chat, like mIRC or something.

Great idea 001... Maybe a web-based chat room would be a good idea for those who do not use mIRC or only have web access?

There are stacks of these things around for free use on websites. I had one on MI6 many, many moons ago but the one I used started to pop-up advertise so I dropped it and never replaced it.

@ 001:

Where else do you want to chat? I think you're in my icq list and you're in the German James Bond Fan Chat since a while... :)

Regards,
Tim

CBN is the best place to talk about Bond (and other things) on the net IMHO. Its like a small community and the people are friendly. So please talk away. We're listening.

How are things in Sweden?

You have come to the right place 001.:)

Chat away.

So, what about this weather, huh?

Just to give you an idea 001, I logged onto CBN over half an hour ago, went to General Discussion (here) first and haven't being able to get out!

During that time we have discussed everything from smelly basset hounds and ejaculating elephants to the merits of Scaramanga's signature.

Where else are you going to get such a wide range of topics in the one forum?

Sorry, Scar, to put your sig in with ejaculating and smelly animals.:)


You're forgiven, I found it quite amusing actually. :):D:D

I say everyone go on MSN!
If everyone is on it, we would have CBN on msn!
( I find yahoo and ICQ slow and annoying)

I should explain our position on 'chat rooms'

CBn does have it's own IRC server, usable through mIRC etc.. however, we're not in a position to make it public yet.

I personally have a fear that it will take things away from this forum. The greatest thing about a discussion board is I can discuss X with Y and Y alone but Z can come along and read it and learn information as well. Whereas, with a chat room once X and Y discuss it and leave no one can read it again. The information is lost, which I think is very sad.
