There have been many times where if we had a separate chat window with all the members actively working on someones problem, it wouldn’t have been so cluttered in the chat area. I think we could also do sub chats for things like development, SP reactions(LOL), or User profile Service not starting(Brad). Or even installing software that isn’t even SP (Vlad).
This would also help with a suggestion Vlad made to allow us to keep track and document solutions to problems, that way when people are searching we can hold a large or the largest repository of break fix solutions for SharePoint.
VOTE FOR ME and it will be Free Beer Tomorrow!!
The original intent was to be able to create rooms on the fly for troubleshooting, I can see your point though. All of us in there is a great vibe. I still think there is something to be benefited from by taking the discussion that is lasting hours to another “room” to make sure there isn’t as many missed messages. At times I have seen the chat window fill up with 8-10 people typing about the same issue, then a random poster asks a question and it gets missed.
