It was horrible. Everyone was talking at once. They Admins were totally unprepared for the amount of people who showed up. Bree and Gemma were talking to each other.
Bree: What do I do? Go home?
Gemma: Im scared Bree
Bree: What do I do? Go to Jonas?
Gemma: You dont even know Jonas.
Bree: What do I do?
Blah Blah...2 teenage girls babling the whole time about nothing.

ugh,
deleted my post... stupid laptop keyboard.
anyways, i saw another live chat for the show mythbusters.... same thing you are describing = a million people, a million questins all at once, about 3 or 4 got 'partially' answered.. the questoins answered were basically irrelevant and the entire chat lasted about 15 minutes....
given what happened, maybe it should have been better to simply allow people to "listen" to Bree and Gemma's conversation and/or had a lottery to allow 'selected' forum members to ask their pre-screend questions or supplied questions frolm the creators...probably would have added alot more value.
anyways, i'd still like to see a cleaned up transcript of the chat. there had to at least be a couple of fan questions/suggestions that made it through the noise and got answered/taken into consideration by 'bree' or 'gemma'

YAY! I was at the other site until about 8:30 CST ROFL isn't that GREAT!?! That was so much fun. So, I went into the OTHER chat room, where the chat wasn't supposed to be, and tadaa there's lg15 et al. I can read fast, but I think it was a problem for lots of us. 10 min of really quick chatter then they left. Too cute! We really must do this again sometime And thanks so much for putting this event together.

I agree. there were a lot of pissed off people. But how could anyone NOT see that coming? especially after all the flaming that goes on on the youtube comments. i really hope this chat isnt detremental to the progression of the story.Inigo wrote:Poor admins and creators, the fit has hit the shan. I am not mad about the chat. But thousands of other fans are fuming. I hope we can just forget about this.
Curiosity is the foundation of education, and if you tell me that curiosity killed the cat, I say only that the cat died nobly.
I'm so confused. It wouldn't even let me type anything. I would click on the box and the screen would go blank then came back up again. Ugh. I guess I'll just wait for the transcription.

It's that floating box thing at the top of the screen that says Userplane Webchat. ^.^spiff5000 wrote:Excuse me for being *totally* stupid but what is the Userplane chat???Dannie717 wrote:It's in the Userplane chat now.. But since each room can only hold 100 people, not everyone gets to talk to the characters... I hope they post an annoucement on here soon about it, lots of people are probably gonna get pretty confused...

Well I am pissed...I wait on the main page forever because I was specifically told by people in the Userplane Webchat earlier today that the chat would not be there but there would be a link on the main page. Surprise! No link. I am just glad that it sucked as bad as you all said it did. I suppose I didn't miss much. Grr! It angers me.
Lumpy: Are you him? ARE YOU HIM?!

The creators should know that when something CAN go wrong, it WILL go wrong. All the fans were excited to talk with Bree, but most of us were not able to. Next time, if they really want the fans involved, they should have planned it better and not just pushed fans aside as the main characters talked with one another.
I feel like the series is hardly influenced by the fans.... I mean only the main characters get to influence the story in important ways. When have they ever mentioned A FAN in a video???? I don't think that is fair.

I totally had the same problem tonight Les but i did get to see some of what was going on and was greatful lol but having 320 people in one room at once throwing out any comment really went nutty fast. I was mostly sitting back and laughing through the chat and not really all that angry i mean what did we all expect to happen? But hey all in all those who got to at least witness it can say i survived the first major LG15 chat. Put that on a T-Shirt Design!Les_128 wrote: I'm so confused.
