I've been trying to get in to chat to you today but my Net connection keeps dropping out. It's been pretty dire for the last few days at certain times. There's 2 of us in there now, but unfortunately you've logged off. I couldn't get my connection fired up again in time to catch you.

I don't think it's that no one wants to speak to you, more that they have enough time to read or post on the forum but not enough to stay and chat. Especially if they're in work at the time, it's more difficult to deal with a chat situation than just having a sly peek at the forum when the boss isn't around. Chatting from work is more awkward as well because, if you're trying to work at the same time and don't have or can't have the sound on, you wouldn't necessarily know when someone has sent a message.

Dawn was always a great one for chat, but, of course, she's busy downunder now, getting her new life kick-started.
