Do you regularly have discussions via rep messages or 'user wall' messages?

If you have an interesting reason for doing so, also post that here.

Discussion isn't the word I'd use.

I like the unsigned rep conversations. Albeit it's sort of difficult to have more than one going one at one time, but that makes it more fun.

If people message me I message back. So get to messaging, pronto!

I gotta make my place here.

There was a member that I think does not post anymore, with whom we regularly had discussions via reps and at some point via user wall. Other than that, I don't use very regularly either feature.

Reasons: Well, I assume facility. With said member we would just talk via reps instead of taking it to PMs - all you had to do was, click, rep.

[Ptah]

Would if I could disable reps. Even so, if and when I use them, "discussion" is not the aim (nor would it be a valid use of them).

I have, with great glee, turned off the "user wall" and I entirely ignore the social groups. Redundant if not outright superfluous nonsense, all of it.

Architectonic, I'd use the 'wall' to respond to the really bizarre reps you send me, but you've got yours turned off. And no, I wouldn't want to just use PMs in this case.

That's really odd that people have conversations via rep. I've never done that before in my short career of forum frequenting; I think the reason why is because usually I just AIM or MSN the person. Frankly, if a person is hard to get a-hold of I will just give up on them. If they don't want a visitor wall or give their messenger out, it's a bit clear that they don't want to talk.

I should have put Occasionally, not Regularly.
(Sorry for buggering the poll.)

Usually it was when someone didn't have Wall on and we didn't feel like doing PMs, so we'd just leapfrog off posts in a thread we were both participating in.

The practice of responding to a private reputation comment via a persistent, publicly viewable chat interface kinda makes my skin crawl.

[djm]

I sometimes converse via rep comments, but don't look at the wall much. There again it's pretty Spartan tbh.

The stalkers need something to stalk.

:grin:

Edit: seriously, i just have conversations wherever and whenever. PM, rep, wall, whichever's easiest to reach the person at the time i have something to say.

Actually, I've had some "personal" conversations on Wall because it's an indirect way of passing information to someone without having to talk to them directly, if they care enough to read and where interaction might have broken down if done directly. Oh, the games people play.... :ph34r:

if I really wanted it private, I'd do it in PM.

sneaky. :ph34r:

private convos are on email for me. :mellow:

PMs are because I can't email at work, and with some folks, I/they may not be keen to release private emails etc for e.g. but still wish to converse.
