Non-Forum League Communication

Post by Rizzo »

I guess there's a bunch of discussion that could be had with the downtime of the server over the weekend. We all know that we have a Facebook group but some managers refuse to get a Facebook account for whatever reason they all choose and that's to be respected. Would it get more people to join a chat away from the forums if we chose a different avenue than Facebook? Slack is always an option (although may be more than what we need for the CSL as long as the forums are still around). Another one that I've used for years is Telegram. Works great, able to make group as well as personal messages on the side.

Thoughts?

I do like slack. It's an easy chat program without the social life thingy. I don't think it would kill forum activity as it is pretty much the same like our current Facebook chat.

I think it’s up to the people currently not in the chat group if they want to join, would they join if we were on a different method of communication. Some people don’t want to be in a big group chat like that, as long as we have everyone’s preferred email address, we can be fine if something like this happens again (fingers crossed it never does). But if they want to join one, then we can move on to figuring out what the best app/site for that is.

I don't know what Slack is but I'd still likely be absent so don't do anything for the sake of including someone like me.

I agree with Myles in that it would only make sense to switch if people currently not in the FB chat would join a different app.

It's not a page but a chat on Facebook Messenger.

I would not mind a alternate chat but it is not so important.
I think that someone has all email and can send a message if needed, works just fine.

I’m actually not a huge fan of Discord. The mobile notifications kinda suck.
