NFT: Adding a private chat feature to BBI.

Bubba : 2/14/2020 6:16 am
I know this isn't facebook but sometimes threads are started that are of a personal concern (legal, medical mental health etc) and some members offer great insight. It might avoid the attacks that sometimes occur that are not helpful.

Just a thought.
I honestly can’t

Think if one poster I would like to private chat with here.
That's a lot of development time

People are free to list a throwaway email in their profiles if they want to be contacted privately.
There’s some great advice on here  
UConn4523 : 2/14/2020 10:28 am : link
some of it I’ve gotten on threads, other via email from BBIers. Private chat can happen via email, IMO. Probably not worth the investment and time to make it a feature on this board.
Davisian slides into my DMs enough

No need to carry it over to BBI

Yeah everyone here sucks.
If you're going to invite someone to a manhattan street corner

LOL, my first thought was the Eric posting that the private messaging feature had been disabled due to abuse and the requisite 'this is why we can't have nice things' posts that would follow.

I would assume that's true for everyone here concerning you as well.

I could see the benefit of FMiC and .MCL. having a running channel to hash out their daily differences outside of every thread ; )

No offense Blue Lou, you are in the elusive club of BBIers that I have interacted with in person.

The people in that club have my number and we can talk offline. I don’t have your directly, but we both know I can get it fairly quickly if I needed too.

10 years ago this would have been a nice feature to have, but over the 20 years of visiting this site, the amount of trolls and dupes and general assholes that have begun talking here, it would only make this place worse to have a feature like that.
Yes

Ten to twenty years ago, there were no trolls and dupes and general assholes here.
