Title: Interest Poll - Slack Chat
Post by: wolf39us on May 02, 2018, 01:59:40 PM
Hey guys!


I've been speaking with NaRu and we have been considering starting a Slack room for AF.com for those of you who prefer a live chat.  I'd like to see who would be interested in this.  Here is the application:


https://slack.com/downloads


The program supports multiple operating systems as well as iOS / Android and is solid.
Some previews of the application:

NOTE:
This program's target audience is businesses, but it is extremely well made and could be a great addition!

Personally, my friends and I use this as a replacement for other social services.  We quite enjoy it.  Between the apps that it supports and the overall quality of the program, we prefer it.


Here's the integration store we can work with

They use slack at .org
I've participated, and it's fun and all. I'm not opposed, but I'm not the most active member either.

No, this is not random people.  You have to be invited to the slack.

Why not Discord then? It is, though, geared for games.

It looks like 140 character chat to me.  Not interested.  If the admins push things in that direction, I'll move on...

Participating is completely optional.
It doesn't impede The forum. It's simply an additional form of communication available to members.
