ive read some that people want to do live chat room but nobody is ever there. ive seen this too,click on chat room and nobody is there. lets pick a designated time and then everybody who wants too can log on and participate. ill pick the fist one sunday may 9 12:oo pm. come one come all. ladies you too are requested. for the future anyone can post a time and day and then those who want to show up and chat.  

maybe this can work. maybe im sticking my nose where it doesnt belong,but lets give it a try.

I've gone in to a chat room, said hi, and then I get "your time has expired" Can anyone explain that for me?

when I'm on my PC. I don't get it when I'm on my Mac.

It seems there are a few that stay in there while at work and chat on and off.  Chat becomes the most lively after work.  

If you want to chat, set your notification upon entry to "on" and you'll hear a bell when someone has arrived.  To do this, click on your name on the right while in the room and you'll see that option.  

Eventually you'll get a core of locals that visit frequently.
 
Good luck
