Yikes, I know the guy that started this ning. Steve, has been concerned about the chat feature, it's never been really active by users. Please send a message to Steve Hargadon (right hand column), and tell him.

Every once and a while a teacher will try to open a forum for her students, I've noticed until the teacher is set straight her students use the chat. I wonder if that's what it was. Steve'll take care of it. N.

Yes, it was disappointing. I've deleted the chat module, as I don't think it really adds anything substantive to the site, and I deleted about five of the student members who signed up and were the most egregious offenders. Thanks for taking the time to communicate about it. Take care.
