Callie,

If I weren't here for fun I wouldn't be here. Sure, I love editing and reviewing and making this place as tip top as it can be. But the reason I stay if because of the fun I have in the forums, commenting and reading blog posts and in general building relationships on the site. I feel like this is really more conducive to a sense of community than chat. As I've said before, a lot of users that only use chat or almost exclusively use it are a mystery to me. They'll show up out of the woodwork and other chat regulars know who they are and I'm sitting here scratching my head. Chat builds community for chat regulars.

In this train of thought it seems really divided. Chat has their little CP Chat Community and then the rest of us have our community. People like Xelrog know who I am, and I feel like over the time we've spent communicating through blogs, forums, and comments we've built rapport. Same with Mystreve, and Guy, and Skelly and you. We have a community because we all actively communicate and have fun on here through the main site. Chat has community and fun through chat.

So like I've been saying, lets focus on building cohesion through the site. A single community.
