Afterward, you could all split into groups and go on some nice impromptu scouts/adventures/exploratory trips/whatever. *hint, nudge*

Is it really <!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>that hard</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--> to leave an MSN adress or some other type of contact information?<br>

Some people do not wish to give out their personal contact information. For those people, yes it is very hard.<br>

How about simply using the EZboard private message option? Just a thought. <br>
<br>
I use MSN exclusively professionally, but anyone can have my private email-address, no problem. Just ask for it in a private message.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>

Uuh...<br>
<br>
MSN isn't quite that personal...<br>
<br>
First of all, inside MSN you can "turn off" unwanted users.<br>
<br>
In worst case scenario you can just make a "bogus" MSN adress and use it only for MSN...<br>
<br>
So, I don't really understand what you are trying to say Onomat.<br>
<br>
Also I am frustrated of always finding the server empty on european times, why I tried to gather ourselves when some of us are online, instead of writing posts here and there that try to appoint a meeting.

What I am trying to say is people do not have to give out their contact info. It's that simple.<br>
<br>
For some people that information is personal. I only have family and real life friends on my AIM buddy list for example. I know you can block unwanted users, but that is a pain that can be avoided by simply not giving out your info.

<!--EZCODE QUOTE START--><blockquote><strong><em>Quote:</em></strong><hr>Also I am frustrated of always finding the server empty on european times<hr></blockquote><!--EZCODE QUOTE END-->It's not. Yesterday, at 3pm EST (8pm GMT) there were 13 people online. Right now, at 11:12 am EST (4:12 GMT), there are currently 6 people online. Lately, I have regularly seen 8+ (often in the 10-14 range) people online between 1pm and 3pm EST (6pm-8pm GMT).<br>
<br>
We've seen you online in the EST afternoons off in some distant corner alone while there were many people online with whom you might play. Try meeting some of them in character.

I can't make Friday, but these next few weeks I'll be able to play during afternoon hours (est) so I should be seeing quite a few of you online.

I will want to go. But I might not be able to play long because I have to get ready for my trip. <br>

About the MSN option: it can be pretty handy to use in addition to Tells in The Vast and postings on the Boards, I think. Though I believe AG has a good point: staying online on the Vast helps attract more players. The one does not exclude the other, however.<br>
<br>
About the privacy problem with MSN: just create another MSN account for use with The Vast. I did. As far as I know you can easily have several MSN accounts.

So, how did your meeting go? How many people did you have?
