At the beginning of a new month, someone from the Contributor group will post a topic providing a summary for discussions that were discussed in the Contributor section during the previous month. This is to allow the community to be more informed and have a better understanding of the Contributor group. If you have any concerns or suggestions that you would like to be brought to the attention of the Contributor group, feel free to message any of the Contributors.

 

You can find our previous logs here.

 

Concluded Discussions

These topics are concluded and are no longer being discussed. If you have any concerns about the conclusion of these topics, feel free to send a message and I'll see what I can do to help you.

 

Adding new audies to xat

Spoiler

Our discussion has now concluded about potentially adding more audie sound effects to the xat audies list, which hasn't been updated for a very long time. The xat developers are now aware of the suggestion, and the decision about whether to add more in the future is now in their hands.

 

Helfen chat

Spoiler

A discussion was held about Helfen chat and its activity. Helfen is the official help chat in the German language. The conclusion of the discussion was to appoint DJCrazy (444000444) as the new manager, and they will lead the chat going forward. DJCrazy is a long-term owner of the chat with lots of passion and dedication. We would also like to thank ZILLE (248700245) for their contributions to the chat over the last two years.

 

Ongoing Discussions

These topics are currently ongoing. If you would like to offer feedback and/or suggestions, feel free to send me a message, and I'd be happy to convey it to the rest of the group. You can also post a comment if you would like to offer feedback and/or suggestions.

 

Annual xat feedback form

Spoiler

Our discussion remains ongoing in the Contributors group about user feedback, specifically following xLaming's topic in the Suggestions section. At this early stage, ideas include creating a survey to obtain general comments about xat, and then analyzing statistics from the results. The survey could be open for a trial period of time and then eventually be closed if it does not work as intended. A key message of the survey would be that users' responses will be used to help Contributors better represent xat communities, and these responses will eventually be transferred to xat Admins upon positive review by Contributors.

 

Help chats on auto-promotion

Spoiler

It was previously suggested that either all help chats should be eligible for auto-promotion, provided they are active, well-kept and have an established userbase, or all help chats should be removed from auto-promotion. Auto-promotion means the chat will automatically appear on the xat.com homepage. This change would be for fairness reasons, although one Contributor suggested communities should be evaluated on a case-by-case basis, on their own individual merits, rather than making a broad decision for all. The possibility of banner ads to promote specific chats was also raised, thanks to Bob_'s idea in April's Monthly Log. Our discussion continues.
