i think it would be great if ther was facility of audio chat .....so that we discussion becomes more educatuve

OpenStudy (shadowfiend):

That's unlikely to happen in the near term. Audio chat is a whole different can of worms from what we're already running, and we find that regular chat (which is how questions and answers are structured) seems to be working fairly well.

OpenStudy (aravindg):

oops...wel what abt private chat

OpenStudy (akshay_budhkar):

what about chat between specific people? i mean we can make a system in which people of higher levels have the facility of chatting in a separate chat option where they can discuss certain stuffs relevant to the subject only.?

OpenStudy (aravindg):

ya

OpenStudy (aravindg):

thts wat i meant

OpenStudy (shadowfiend):

That's a possibility, though audio chat is still likely out of the question. It's simply too difficult to implement at the moment. Private chat, or something like it, is something we're thinking about rolling out soonish.

OpenStudy (amistre64):

i think private chat is a bad idea, makes it to easy for predatory actions.

OpenStudy (akshay_budhkar):

predatory actions?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

yeah .. come over here little girl, I have some candy .... type stuff

OpenStudy (akshay_budhkar):

ya but i am of a view of a separate chat for people above certain level... not private chat

OpenStudy (akshay_budhkar):

won't it be easy for discussing stuffs of that specific subject there? also it will reduce the load on chat making it easier for people of lower level who have to wait

OpenStudy (amistre64):

maybe, but at the moment the math section is mainly for algebra. In any arena algebra seems to take the forefront.

OpenStudy (akshay_budhkar):

ya so how does that matter in this context? Algebra and chat?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

it all depends i spose on their vision for "chat". So we shall see :)

OpenStudy (akshay_budhkar):

Many lower level people have to wait i believe.. So thats why i suggested this. i am not in for private chat though i agree with amistre for that

OpenStudy (akshay_budhkar):

amistre its not magician!!! you lied?
