I'm wondering if there might be any interest in a "Newbie Night"? Say a chat session on a weeknight to just discuss basics. Might be a neat way to give new guys a chance to go ahead and ask the questions they may not want to ask and talk about what we think the basics really are. I'd probably vote for a Thursday, just to deconflict with Sunday but I'd be open for another chat session any night.
Good idea! I'm usually free on Thursday's as well and would love the opportunity to give something back to this great forum.

Sounds like a great idea to me, too.
It's a little late for my newbie days, but I think it could be a great help. And it gives new guys a time to meet and greet! :)
I think those of us who just learned and have "gotten it" would be very valuable at these chats as well. How people learn to understand something is critical. I'm pretty sure another 20 years or so and I'm going to have this stuff down.
That's a great idea. That way I could, um, err, I mean all the newbies could get all the info they need on one night.

We might have the ball rolling. I'm not sure how we get permission to have a chat time set up. We'll see...
Sounds like a good idea to me.
So where is everyone then? I'm in the chat room right now. At least I THINK I am..
count me in!
I guess I came in too late. There was no one there when I came into the chat room. Let's try it again next Thursday....
What do you need permission for? The chat room is open all the time. Just go there and chat.Quote:

Thats true I suppose, but I'd like to have an established time and night of the week and have Lynn's OK too. Maybe even announce a time.Quote:

CRR... We were in there for about 30 minutes last night...
USA time is -5 hrs from GMT... That makes 8PM EST hard to folow here in Europe, since it is allnighter for us on Sunday evening... Theo doesen't mind it, thought...:)Quote:

My new razor and strop will hopefully be here by then.
I'm open to any evening so you can PM me if your stuff gets here early and jump into chat...lol. New razor on the way huh? Tooooo cool.
I'm open to starting at say 4 pm Eastern time if that helps anyone out in Europe and maybe going to say 7pm...ofcourse I assume things will just keep moving along.
I'm also somewhat open to a 4 AM chat Eastern time, but only by exception if thats the only good time for someone.
So my plan right now will be to jump into chat on Tuesday evening and Thursday evening around 5pm and see where things go from there. Maybe hang out in there for about 2 hours and see how things go.
Superfly...how do you feel about 5pm, is that better or worse?
SUPER... I'll be there man.
If you are talking about 5pm EST, that is 10pm GMT, which is better than 2am like the Sunday chats... ;)Quote:
