When I first came to pc, I was in awe of the fact that there were so many people to talk to, to share ideas and learn new things. At that time, I thought, why would anyone need to password a room? As time goes on, I’m learning that there are those who like to cause drama; whether it’s intentional or unintentional, I don’t know. But I do know that it’s my choice to have a conversation without unnecessary drama. Hence, I choose to have a room with a password. Those who know me and know the thoughts I’ve shared know that I don’t want to broadcast what I’m feeling or have to offer an explanation to someone that doesn’t know me.
It’s everyone’s personal choice to enter any room or create their own and set the boundaries for that room. And using a password is the choice I make. I welcome comments on this subject.

I use one for the very same reasons, however I do not actually agree with them as I feel they can alienate new people who could use support.
So to appease my head (cant spell consounce lol) I will vary my time in main chat AND a room with a password. ![]() |

I appreciate your comment Tishie about not wanting to alienating anyone because that's not what I'm trying to do. I just was to have a place where I feel completely comfortable with those around me.

Generally I like to speak to a variety of people, meet new members and go into ready made rooms.
However as time has gone on I've found myself feeling unsafe due to members drama, rudeness and just generally feeling I couldn't rely on people I don't know and trust. So depending on my mood and who's around I go into both types of room, I feel they both have their place. Something I have noticed more recently is to do with rude comments and not being accepting of other people's views. I have highlighted this to mods, as I find that some members can be highly offensive at times. However because they have not broken a rule it's allowed to carry on and upset other people if they happen to get on the wrong side of people who do this. I don't know the answer to this, but it's making me very concious of who I can talk to now. |

Anna, you are so right and that's why I don't think I should have to put up with other people's drama.
Thanks for commenting, I really appreciate it.

It's any member's prerogative to password-protect a chat room for any reason or no reason whatsoever. Nobody is here to judge others (or, if they are, they're likely in the wrong place).
I'd like to think we can do things to look out after our own emotional or psychological needs without having to impugn others. So I'm not sure what kind of "comments" you were looking for about this choice that's available to every member? DocJohn

I also wish more members would take themselves off to private chat instead of dominating a public one. And especially when they want to do that in the lobby where no chat should be. ( once again a lobby chat upset someone who was just entering the chat room area. ). Drama we will have with us always...it just always seems to go along with enjoying bouncing up against the guidelines. ![]() Sent from my iPhone |
