It may be useful for quick questions and general chat, but the thing is hardly anyone uses it. Maybe it is also due to the fact that the link to open the chat window is so tiny!

Maybe try to remove the announcement that mentions the number of users in advance.. See what happens then.

There are perhaps a dozen or less regulars on line here. There are also spradic posters and a steady stream of new posters who may post once or twice for specific travel info. but are never heard from again.

Guess the user base is not enough to support a working chat on the forum. It could be handy of course in some situations. For urgent questions, maybe?

I'll try it out soon as the time for my journey comes closer. If any questions or concerns arise about my trip plans, then I'll give it a go and see how anyone responds then.

The chat is not really useful for anything as long as no one uses it. It doesn't harm though as it is and i guess some day it can serve a purpose for someone.
