Don't wanna come off like an angry troll under a cobble stone bridge in North England but we need to have a discussion about chat house #1
We have 29, soon 30 members. We also have,
Brad- Gone (love him) and hasn't even upgraded HD to have Town access yet.
Jack- I haven't seen him active in months
Michele- Gone for months
Jon #2 account- simple fix
Fiona #2 account- simple fix
We can't have new members join when the house is full of "dead accounts". Tina isn't on as much but she's still doing her pimptress two step with her EPIC :kissy: sales and we all love Tina Bear. Ada has two accounts for good reason in chat as she's the boss of all hosses with BEM and is active on both with boat help and such.
As Ann said in chat, purge time?
Thoughts sweet lil pumpkin patch folks?

Oh, blame it on me, will you? But we do need more people who are contributing. Matt has a friend in mind who can take the last spot, but there may be others who might like to join too.

Anne, perhaps PM Michele and Jack and see if they are still active.

Chris' hubby (Tina's dad?) would like to join too. Chris asked me but I told her I'm not in charge. He just reached lvl 29.
Just sayin', now you're on the topic of old/new members.
Jim/Chump/Qubiskop was online yesterday, he left the chathouse on Qubiskop to make space for a more active member.
Gah, we just need a 50 ppl limit in the chathouse!

How did I get to be in charge, huh?
If some are no longer active, which they aren't, they are not going to see a PM because they aren't checking the forum. So what do I do? Jack said a while back that he had lost interest, but I can't kick someone out without notice. What to do? What to do?
Suggestions?

Matt had already asked me to friend one of his friends and invite her into the chat house. Apparently she is very active and would also like to join Team Bolt. I would like to get everyone's okay before doing so. After all, this is not my personal chat house.
Chris has also asked about Derek.
We have had 2 requests for one spot. Would those of you with two accounts be willing to drop one, as Matt suggested, so we can accommodate everyone?
We need a bigger chat house!!

Well we did establish that you are the oldest and wisest Ann, you are our natural leader I agree that you can't kick people without notice, on the other hand, if you send a PM you do give a notice, if they don't read it... well to say it a bit harsh, that is not your fault/problem. Personally, if I wouldn't play for a month and come back to see I'm kicked I would probably understand it and my next step would be to check the forum to see what happened. I think it's very understandable to get kicked if you're inactive for so long. And if they want to come back and be active we can always try to make some space for them again! But best would be to kick the 2nd accounts first probably. I am fine with any new faces, everyone's welcome as far as I'm concerned. And and active addition to team BEM would be great!

Thanks for the response, Chantal. All opinions help me . . . and help spread the responsibility around so that I'm not solely responsible for whatever takes place. Good idea about the PMs, too. Thanks. Edit: And, no, I'm just the oldest. I just wish I were wise.

Firstly... Thanks Matt for your kind words, I love you all too mwah x second... I hope Derek isn't my dad for the simple fact that I barely know him. I think I've only ever met the man twice! Lol I believe the Inactives don't need notice at all. They should be removed and mailed on the forum just to explain why they were removed, and if they ever come back, we will of course try to make room for them. Harsh? Nah... I think a month is a suitable time frame to deem someone inactive... What do you guys think? (I do realise I just mimicked the response of everybody else sue me)

I'm seeing a pattern here, and I'm liking it. Thanks, Tina.

I'm not convinced that they will ever up the limit to 50 per house. Looking at other people's chat houses, they're all half empty and ever so slightly smelly. (I don't advise that you go sniffing people's chat houses... It's apparently rude and unsociable)

Ada, thank you very much. That will leave us with two free spots. However, I do have to agree with Matt that with all you provide for us, you deserve two spots in the house to make it easier for you. It's up to you though.
So far, neither spot has been filled as I need a little more information about the two standing in the wings. We could use some new people who would like to join the forum and Team Bolt, as well as joining the chat house.

I have to agree with Matt and Ann too Ada, you are active on both accounts and also a big help from both accounts. As long as there is space in the chathouse both Mar and Fum are welcome as far as I´m concerned! Maybe I should have said that we should start with kicking inactive/less active second accounts

Six spaces free in the house now. I kicked Jack, Brad. & Michele, removed my second acc and promoted those that weren't 'elders'. I have a ? On whether to kick Amy and Flo, as they have not been around for a while either. Will leave for a while and see if others want to join. Hope that resolves all of the above?

Glad someone else made that decision. Not that I could kick anyone out anyway. Phew! Amy may not have been vocal in chat, but she is still playing I think.
If there are new chat house members who would like to participate in Team Bolt, I would respectfully request that they join the forum in order to make communication easy. It is difficult to try to catch someone in chat to announce a turn. Did I get off-topic?

Thanks Oz, now there's more space for active and/or new members. And if our old friends start playing again we can see if there's still a spot for them, we will find a solution.

First off, crack me up matty... As usual.
Yay Fiona for taking bull by horns! I don't think our old non playing friends wiould get their knickers in a twist over chat house boot, when they are not playing. It's brads fault anyway.
I thinki Amy is still playing... Don't know about flo.
Look forward to meeting our new nh friends.... Oz, you make them a shepards pie, I'll lend them some tools, Lola and Jon give them the sugar off their back - Tina can do her "pimptress two step" (lol, matt) - Ann can show them her glow in the dark whip.... And, Ada and Chantal can charm the fish outta them!
Matty can just be special boy that he is - and all is well.
