Community needs Realtime communication

Hello , Unigine communication is so slow and people is not communicating good.

Its better to all people use irc client and communicate thru irc.

 

I've opened irc.freenode.net #unigine channel.

We wait all people to join.

Don't think that there will be a real benefit compared to the forum: no persistence, no search, no threads, ... Also most of the time there are only a few persons active on the forum at the same time and then only for a short time, therefore it could be quite boring waiting for some IRC activity....

We don't plan to use IRC.

Forum is good enough at this point as it allows creating an additional knowledge base.

Exactly.

Maybe "skype chat" would be a solution. Users to communicate with each other. But it must be user-initiated, not Unigine. I have a couple of these chats in my Skype. About sculpting, web, techdesign, 3D etc.

I beg to differ - IRC is much better for solving small problems quickly...

 

The open source projects I am involved with use IRC very effectively - Usually a bot is used to report any activity on forums or mailing lists to the irc channel. stuff that needs to be documented get's discussed there.

 

I particularly like irc because it can run in the background and isn't intrusive unless somebody specifically want's to ask me a question or answers a question I have in which case I get a notification.
