I think there's a strong possibility not many of the wonderful folks would turn up in a chat room, either, considering it hasn't been asked for very often.
You could always use the pointless thread. That's close.

There are perhaps twenty regular posters on F:F:F, and some much larger and uncounted number of lurkers. And right now there are three people in Chat, but there's no way of knowing exactly who until you are in there, and the chat room she finds not so comforting. It's strange even with friends, like sitting in a pitch−dark cellar conversing with people at a distance of about fifteen feet. The hectic speed, and the brevity of the lines in the thread, plus the feeling that everyone is talking at once, at counter−purposes, deter her.
