I believe that there needs to be a feature of which you can invite a friend or other member to the chat. There would be a button on their member page, saying “Invite to Chat”. When clicked, the member will then receive a notification that a member has sent an invite to the notessimo chat.
Hey, Starburst has enough work as it is. He shouldn’t have to solve a problem that has already been solved. If you want to have a conversation in the chatroom, you can send people a private message inviting them to join you.
My stance on the subject is quite neutral. I see both the positives and negatives for this. It’ll make life a whole lot easier with this button, but if you want to invite a whole lot of people, then you’re better off just making a status update.
