I think the idea of the chatroom still isn't bad. I believe if others know when people are in the chat, they would come on by. Too bad there isn't a way to let others know via a chart when people are usually in a chatroom. Over in both the Neo-Geo and ComicBloc Forums, which have their own chatrooms via vBulletin, they show a list of everyone who is currently in the chat. When others notice there are people there, they tend to join in.
