I don't mean this to single out anyone with what I have to say. I am just writing this to get it out. Chat has been bothering me for a long time, since the previous software change.

Aside from a handful of people I usually feel totally ignored in chat... About half don't reply when I say hi people just continue their conversation. I understand people might not notice someone joining sometimes, i have that problem too, but it seems to happen more often than not. I've talked to several others who have the same complaint. I admit I have problems joining myself into conversations, some of this is because of my issues, but maybe the people who don't think there is much of a clique problem are actually part of one too.

It bothers me that often when I want support or to just talk about mental health issues, everyone is in the adult room having a party. It's not that I don't like those people, some I do quite a bit, or that I want to ruin peoples fun, but I don't think the "adult room" is helpful and is turning people off of entering chat. After the recent rule change the party seems to have moved ES, though it's not quite as bad. At least ES isn't empty any more.
