Group Video Chats on Skype... round 2
May 4, 2018 at 8:07 pm
(This post was last modified: May 4, 2018 at 8:12 pm by Catholic_Lady.)
A couple of years ago myself along with several other members here did a group video chat on Skype. Basically we agreed on a time and date and all got on skype for a mass video chat.
It was me, Poca, Tib, Shell, Whateverist, KingPin, some member who is no longer here called Lemon something... and Ham's and Losty's voices (they didn't have cameras). Group video chats only work if you're using a computer or laptop (with a camera and a microphone obviously), it does not work on phone for some reason.
Anyway, I was wondering if anyone would be interested in doing that again sometime.
Let me know below if you're in so we can start planning a date and time.

Nope, not going to happen with me. Good luck, though.
Maybe I can change my mind.
I'll have to be informed ahead of time. Me sober is so much better.
Mind you, I have to figure out how to do Skype. Never done it before. I can black out my image to only do voice, correct?

would you be interested in joining with just voice? you'd see us and hear us, but we would only hear you. Losty and Ham did it that way last time.

I don't think the camera is needed.
I'm wary of showing myself. So long as the audio is available, that's all that matters.

I can 100% do either audio or both audio and webcam.
I am fine to turn my camera off if people don't wanna see my man-nipples. The weather is very hot here for a sun-hating British weakling with pale skin such as myself. So if I am doing video there's no way I am wearing a shirt I don't wanna be sweating all through it lol. If anyone is gonna feel awkward I'll just do voice. I don't actually give a fuck lol.
EDIT: Actually it's incorrect to say that I hate the sun. I love sun shine I just hate the heat of it.

I'd do it again if a time worked for everyone. Do you think it's true that Losty had the camera off because she wanted to be naked while we talked? (I might want to try that.)

You forgot me CL... I was in at least one of those group chats... remember I was in black and white because my laptop's webcam is not that good? I don't remember any lemons though... but two names come to mind, Lemonvariable and demoniclemon, was it either of those?

Possibly. Depends on when.
