That would be awesome +1

Would be handy once the Trolls are minded +1

I am not a big fan of chat rooms, but as a partial workaround you can use Conversations, that can be enlarged to several users.

+1. Also there's more interaction possible in the Facebook Group. -
True, Facebook works very well for that sort of thing. I was in a USA/Ireland/New Zealand conversation on Facebook a couple of days ago.

Don't do socialist media. No FB or twitter here. No camera either.
Guess I'll be stuck in the forum whilst you guys go ape. Hang on...

Could be very useful, if controlled and policed properly. Unfortunately could turn bad quickly......

Could be fun socially, for chatting and banter, but there's one thing to keep in mind.
Whenever a question is answered or a problem is solved here on the forum, the solution becomes part of a huge, searchable, fairly structured archive for future Kemperers who run into the same issue.
On the other hand, the ephemeral and unstructured nature of a chat room means that any useful info shared in there is basically lost. It disappears off of the screen after a minute and then becomes much harder to locate in that single endless stream of different conversations going on at the same time.
I get the same feeling in the Facebook group sometimes, where the same questions are asked again and again and then disappear into obscurity really quickly. Meanwhile, they've been answered on the forum a long time ago, just once, and the answer is still there, and relatively easy to find, and has probably helped countless people since...

Fully agreed with @Robrecht
Good points. -
Excellent points by Robrecht.
I've had my Kemper for 9 months now. In that time l haven't had to post a single question on how to operate it. Not that l haven't had questions. I've had lots and lots and lots of questions . Fortunately there is a manual, which contrary to some remarks l've seen, l find extremely well written and helpful and then there is this forum . The generosity of wiser/experienced people who happily and frequently share their knowledge is something to behold and should not be taken for granted. So a big, big thankyou to you all.
Every question l've had, regarding operating the KPA, l've found the answer to. lf not in the manual then certainly here on the forum. Back to Robrecht's point. A live chatroom and the danger of losing great information in the midst of chatter would be tragic. -
Most people who complained about the manual apparently missed there were actually two
forthermore, many new users ignore the existence of wikpa.org, which - while being not really up-to-date - is a great resource IMO.
