New Chat Concept - MONDAY nights in the chat room - "New Member Chat"

Hello all,

As the title says, we're introducing a new chat concept on Monday nights, beginning at 7PM CST tomorrow, in our SRP Chat Room. Conservatively called "New Member Chat" but maybe more affectionately dubbed "Newbie Night" :) , the idea is to have a number of Mentors available to answer any questions that new SRP members may have.

We all know that there are an incredible amount of variables to control when you first begin to use a straight razor and brush. SRP is the place to be, absolutely, and the SRP chat room is going to be the place on Monday nights!

Come over, log in to the chat, and ask away. We'll answer everything as best we possibly can.

What better way to relax on a Monday evening :) We'll see you tomorrow!

7 pm which Time zone ????

Updated....thanks Glen. Completely forgot about those Time Zone contraptions.

7pm Central Time

Our first "New Member Chat" is almost here. Come by, and ask away. (Sorry if that sounds a tad cheesy) :)

I'm headed into Chat now. Tonight should be slow, but if you are a beginner and looking for some conversation and discussion on all things straight, come on in. Hopefully in the coming weeks we can get Monday nights back on your calender.

I'm going to be working on a new post at the same time on two big challenges I've faced on learning to straight shave. I'll post that in the Beginners section before the night is out.

Great idea, guys. Thanks!

Bill,

We are having a ball in there right now. Turns out Monday nights are for straight shaving! :-)

Who knew?? Looks like 20-25 guys in the chat.

Yea, we ended up with a big chat night. We had so much stuff going on. And the chat led to many new posts, with pictures included. Modern technology is amazing. Hope to see more guys next week.

I only got to stop in for a few before I got off work, but it looked like a great time going on :tu

I'm just reminding everyone....new, newish, just signed up....whatever, that on Monday nights in the chat room, we are talking about stuff that new members face. Last week there was a bunch of talk on building lather, stropping....which strop to buy, and lots more.

Newbie Night is Open for business!

We had a great night tonight. Lynn himself showed up for Newbie Night chat. RandyDance showed up too. We covered some aspects of overhoning, stropping technique, Get Together planning, and even some discussion of disposable straight use (imagine that). Another great chat focused on beginner issues. Hope you can join us next week.

I missed the last one!

Well, I'm not missing this one.....

8PM EST, Newbie Chat in the chatroom.

It's getting cold outside, so why not saddle up to your laptop with a nice glass of something tasty and warm up your fingers by typing questions!!?

I'm goin' in! Newb Nite is beginning.

It was a good nite, we had a couple of new guys and I hope we helped them a bit.

All new guys are welcome! :)

I'm opening up Newbie Night! We'll be holding off on Newbie Night through the Holidays, so feel free to jump in tonight.

We had another nice chat night. Lynn and I discussed bevel symmetry and we also discussed having a motorcycle rally up to his fabulous brick and mortar wet shaving shop this summer. The group also discussed honing powders for strops. I learned a lot.

Another great chat night! We'll be taking a few weeks off during the Holidays. I'll post again in early January when we pick up our beginner chats again.

It's the new year, with some new members, who hopefully have some new questions.....join us for Newbie Night in the Chatroom.

I'm going in there right now.

We've been kinda slow lately in there guys. Come on over....you must have some questions about something

8 PM, EST, in the chat room.

See you tonight.

I may be able to pop in for a few this time!

Ohhh, now that's just mean! :rofl2:

Hey all,

I won't be able to make it into the chat tonight. Some report card editing has just come down the pipe, last minute.

Have a good one, and see you next week.
