I never go to the chat rooms. I post mostly in the Bible discussion and Miscellaneous forums. Nowadays I mostly only have time to post on weekends. I enjoy several of the threads here on the Miscellaneous forum.

Actually, Fractal, there's more drama in your criticism than there is in the OP's expressing of how they feel.

I guess we must agree to disagree on that one.

I have no idea what you're attempting to say.

Hiya Judahroar,

People rarely talk to me in chat. For me that can feel rejecting and isolating. I am also aware that I make little effort to join in the chat too so part of the fault lies with me. (I'm a new christian...most of the conversations are way outta my league so I just listen lol). I reckon also a little bit of being ignored is good for the soul...makes our egos realise that in the scheme of things we really not that important lol. Can we tolerate being ignored and still be at peace?

What feelings and thoughts does not being talked to in chat bring up for you? Does that start old tapes playing? Take it to the Lord and ask for how you can renew your mind on it.

Don't leave. We are all brothers and sisters learning to love each other! If I see you in chat I'll give you a friendly nudge :)

Been a member a few weeks now and I must say, this site has taken me off the networking site that's been taking too much of my time and at times, my fine mood. I am blest to have found a site where there's encouragement, godly conversation, and prayer. It's also interesting the way people from different parts of the world can come together, sharing and bearing each other's burden, or just talk about anything. I hope you take time to reach out and/or participate in forums so you get to know people and vice versa. I can be your friend too :)
God bless you!

i felt the same way too when i first got here....but do not lose heart...you can go for forums, you can make comments; express your ideas on things...explore CC and you'll find great things and you'll find yourself staying much time here....i will add you to my friend list [i got only 5 friends, you'll be the 6th if you want]... CC people and I are here for you because [we] i personally believe that we must encourage one another > 1Th_5:11 Therefore encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing.

so cheer up.. :)

The strength of this site is in the forum, I think.

for starters fractal_curve my feelings are not not drama just honest feelings.you don't need too accuse me of drama of what i said.also fractal_curve your not being sensitive.all you did is is accuse me while others tried to encourage me to stay.
i don't want you guys or anyone to be friends with me cause of what i wrote of being hesitant of staying here because...
and i don't want you guys to be friends with me out of pity as well.
i sort of gave up being friends with female friends (which i prefer).the friends i had on other sites hardly asked how i'm doing.i know people get busy but that's no excuse too not email me.i understand people get ill physically that's a diffrent story.

You should note that the 'forum' chatters and the 'chat room chatters' are mostly not the same people. There are some that overlap and do both chat room and forums, but it is a small group. For the most part they are two separate groups. So you can't judge the forum chatters by the chat room.
The chat rooms tend to be very cliquish. Mostly dominated by a group of friends that show little interest in anyone outside their clique. Most others are likely quiet people or people who prefer to not talk in the main chats but stay in PM's. That's often the case with me. I talk maybe 10% of the time in main, if that.
I have the same problems of getting greeted, except by the few people i know a bit. So yeah, chat room wise i agree i don't care for most, especially the 'clique'. But i've been patient and made some great friends here.


Fractal, well, seems a number of others felt the same way i did, so you seem to be the only one thinking that was ok.

This ^^^ is all drama. Don't be so sensitive to people on the internet. We're pixels on a screen. We have no bearing on the real world.

On the flip-side, I do empathise. It's difficult to get a response out of anyone in the chat room. It seems to be solely about the two or three people who hog the cam rather than about discussing anything.
