My dad takes Lactaid and is able to live a dairy-loving lifestyle despite his difficult digestive system... I would totally be in the same boat. Okay, have a glass of horchata, which is milk-like but non-dairy?

But glad you're feeling better, anyway *hug*

I think that the live chat option would be an amazing feature to implement! I'm loving that idea!

I'm super interested in the toy questions thing, provided it's actually done well. I do this kind of thing for a living anyway!

I think the live chat thing is a great idea but also might be used for random nonsensical chatting and abused.

I remember Gary mentioning that before. I think it's a great idea and I'd love to participate however possible.

It wouldn't be anything on the forums though.

(I'm not really qualified to comment on the first topic)

But the live-chat help sounds pretty cool! I don't know if I'd ever be able to commit to 'standard hours,' but I'm definitely game to answer questions whenever I'm on (which is usually a whole lot!)

Keep an eye out for the polls. I'm not sure on a time frame for anything right now, I just know Gary's starting to gather information soon

I wish we could have member to member chats. It would really help in the mentoring process and things like that. It would also be nice for these meetings to have chat rooms.

yay this sounds cool. i'd love to help with live chat. if anyone deemed me knowledgeable enough! thatd be awesome.

and by party do you mean real life... like with spoken words out of mouths and looking at other people's faces!? in touching distance?

sounds sweet. i'd love to have a toy party.. if only i knew enough people (i keep my circle pretty small i guess) or enough people who were kinky!

A bunch of people list their skype ids on their profiles, if that helps, because chat would probably be kind of a big deal for the development team to implement.

I understand completely. I didn't interpret it that way. I think that being able to offer customers instant help while they look around the site would be great.

Gary hinted at some sort of chat option or alternative that was coming. Not sure what though.

Now, not everybody was here last year, but a few of you might remember the Halloween Costume Contest. It's getting to be that time of year again, and I wanted to know who'd be interested in doing this again? Should the rules be changed at all? Or should we keep things the way we did last year?

I really like chats but I hate when they get out of hand and you get the tits or gtfo type chat going. Just trolls basically is what Id be worried about.

Maybe something like a personal shopping assistant to help people make informed decisions?

Toy parties sound really good, I bet they will be a hit!

I would love to help folks out! Not sure how the "Live Chat" would work though, my times on site vary from day to day.

One-on-one chats have a low possibility of becoming troll-infested, relative to a broader chat. I think it should be fine.

Can we somehow affiliate this with the Arts and Crafts club? That would be neat!

I really like that it is anonymous till the winner is announced as well. Keeps things a little more on the fair side. Though a lot of us have tattoos which would be a give away haha.

I linked in that post and here again to the post with all the rules from last year. Basically there were 4 categories you could enter into; toy costume, human costume, writing, and "other" and it went down a lot like a Rumble.

You could strongly encourage everybody in the club to participate, or make it your "thing of the month" if you wanted.
