typically on IRC, people stayin the chat all the time. They aren't always monitoring the chat but may still be doing something on the PC. If you type a chat and include a person's name, their client will usually produce a ding sound to let them know someone is trying to talk to them.

Too many people don't understand this though, and pop into a chat, wait 5 seconds, and leave when they don't see any activity.

This. Lol.

I tab to chat every so often but people run away after not even waiting a minute or so lol. I mean, I'm not gonna sit and stare at the chat window all day, but I do leave it open and tab over to it while I'm doing other stuff.

Awww crossed out names means that they are afk ;;, you're on no ones hitlist, honestly!

I'll take your word on that but I'll have somebody alert the local authorities if I go missing.

This is why I was asking. I went in and at first thought the people with crossed-off names just didn't have webcams (since it makes some mention of webcams), so I tried chatting with them. No one responded after 10 minutes, so I left confused.

Usually i prefer standard IRC to most chat websites- though every IRC server is a little different and it takes a little bit of knowledge to use one.

No wonder the forums has been more quiet, but I'm not saying this is necessarily a bad thing. XD
