Default How about a new chat time?

this is just a thought and it may have been brought up before. is their any way to start a chat during the day. alot of us work the 3-11 shift and the 11-7 shift we also work weekends. I would love to chat but i am at work at the times of chat. during the day I get most of my energy. Would anybody else be interested. Nancy is this possible? Then again I may be the only one who wants this?I am not even sure what time the chats are?

Hi Joan, right now the chats are Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday nights 7:30 to 9:30 eastern time. There's a Steps without Stigma chat Monday nights 8:30 to 10:30 eastern time.

By request, we did try having a chat during the day a few different times and no one showed up. lol

Hi all, would there be any interest in having either a Tuesday or Wednesday morning chat?

Please post here if you're interested.

Thanks!

Nancy

I am new and started sub on 2/22. I would love to do a chat, and can do a Wed. morning but am in So. Cal. Is it ok if I dial in later, say at 7:30 PST (10:30 Eastern), or do you need to be on the entire call? If so, I understand, I may be able to make another time. Wasn't sure of the "rules." Also, is there a dial in number? Sorry if I missed it?

Hi happytobehere, here's a thread that explains chat, along with the link to get in.
http://www.addictionsurvivors.org/vb...ad.php?t=20288

People come and go as they have time, so no one has to be there right when it opens, nor stay the whole time. It just closes about 10 minutes before the end so everyone would have a chance.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Nancy

Hi, as the new chat on Wednesday mornings draws closer, I just want to confirm the time. It's changed just a little from what was mentioned above. It will be from 9:30 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time.

It seems to me that mornings are tough. People need to get to work or get kids to school and get to work themselves. Further, the time difference comes into play, what is early morning (maybe too early) for one side of the country is too late in the morning for the other side of the country.

I am sorry I was late. I again woke up late and tried to get on chat just to say hi but i guess it closed because it was almost 11:00. I guess I have to set my alarm next time.

Hi Joan, unfortunately, we're going to discontinue that chat because of lack of participants. We gave it a month and it's just tough for people to attend, as it was when we tried it before.

I'm sorry.
