One of the things missing here (as far as I'm aware) is a chat room. Even for me in the Antipodes; on the other side of the planet, I can usually find someone to chat with. Why is there no chat room?

I'm a member of Lush Stories - erotic writer's site, huge vibrant site, well run (with extensive chat facilities) welcomes all members but you must be over 16.

Vampire Freaks is also great and obviously more goth oriented. I'm a member there too and it has chat. Lots seems to be happening there but it's the members activity that makes the site, any site.

Everything's pretty dead, and the places that aren't don't really interest me. It's a bit unfortunate.

LMFAOOooo you guys <3

Well .. finally I have a report from my investigation of Goth.net ..
It took me days to gain access to their forum!
There IS a bannered message stating that the main site & new forum are linked.
Alas I found that regardless of login to main site when attempting forum login I repeatedly received 'username incorrect' feedback!?
Um .. pretty sure I know my own fucking name o.O

The last attempt something jigged and I swanned in decadently ..
Only to find that all noobs posts require approval prior to being accepted and also noobs appear to be unable to post new topics o.O
I wonder .. what exactly they're afraid of?

I had joined because I was aware that they section off in regards to locale.
Was hoping for hook ups .. lol Gothic outings
But seems that the last postings for UK or Ireland were both over a year ago and someone in their wisdom has locked the threads! :o

*You'll recall that newbies can't start new topics ... *Bangs head*

Well, that's la story so far ..
I dig this btw, I feel all Secret Squirrel

I'll press on investimagating; if I'm not back in 20mins ...
SEND A SEARCH PARTY!!!!!

Jolly good work Agent Anise. We might need to send in a few more undrcover agents. Honestly chat rooms and forums need rules and modeation but not to user-unfriendly degree.

Why thank You <3
It's lovely to hear that my secret agent skills are appreciated ..
I have to say Danger Mouse taught me everything I know
He is by far the greatest Secret Agent in the world!

Ah, I can further report that another of our Kindred has recently joined me on this reconnaissance mission. It's all very hush~hush, like .. I could tell you who it is, but would then probs have to kill ya o.O

Thus far .. it's nice over there in pastures new, buut I feel rather more comfy and at home here tbh .. and hey, our craic's good

*Hasten to add craic in relation to banter and good times! NOT CRACK!
For I am a Secret Agent .. not a drug Kingpin!

I just wondered cause it really seems like stuff is blowing up, I mean this whole subculture.
There is cemetery up the river from where I live that has the hugest giantess black marble orb on this base, ...it would be great if the chat room can come from there.
But my home town has these really old numbered graves from the 1790;s that are falling into this ravine, the general rumor is that they were from the insane asylum, but I LOVE the way that area is in the spring when the violets start growing by those graves.

ya, but if there was a chat room thats what it would be like haha.


But I can report that I am liking twittier as far as being a fan of all these bands and other people. Its more of a feed.
seems like danger mouse is more of an British thing?

I hereby nominate Anise for goth of the year award

Sorry to Say, but I tried Goth.net before I started here, And it was as Anise mentioned... 'UserName Incorrect'... Over, and Over, and Over.
I honestly thought it was me doing something wrong. Which would not have surprised me...

I mean... I don't even know how to send messages to the people on THIS forum, And there has been a few times I wanted to continue on with a topic of discussion but didn't want to monopolize the page with my crap. I didn't want to be that guy who doesn't shut up, and derails the conversation.

That's 'So Me' too, Ruining it for everyone. HaHaHa!

It's funny, I have always used computers for my music, art, programming, and research, But never for socializing or meeting new people.
I thought maybe I had unreasonable assumptions about how things worked, but it seems some of you might share those ideals.

Such a shame...
Good Luck with your Reconnaissance Mission.

KeineModalen,

I Love That Episode...
Its funny because it soo totally reminded me of my friends in high school...
Long, Long, Ago.
Chain smoking at a dinner or friends house, Self Absorbed and Clueless, bitching about our little lives. (We had no clue just how bad things could, and would get.)

And the one where the 'Goth' Kids are trying to tell everyone that they're not the 'Vamp' Kids... Good Shit.

I think I'll dig out my DVD's and watch that tonight.

ya I thought we(where I live) coined the term 'mall goth' but eh synergy. I will admit to reading some ann rice, and I do like that 'near dark' movie. But real life is FAR stranger than any fiction. So some how meeting up with your friends at Denny's late at night was great and we did that around late high school college. Thats when we used to read tons of books and swap tapes.
I hate to break it to you @Pr1aP1sm you are using the internet right now to socialize and meet new people, just dont have a chat room.

If this was real life we would all be standing in a parking lot and no place to go.

Are we missing something ?
I mean there are like 30 sub category's of goth there should be lots of forums, I mean we can't all be sitting in our basements...

What if they are all out at festivals and no one told us ?

I really wish there was a night owl diner you could hang out in for hours. Preferably with wifi.
(My area is very much about hanging out in crowds at gigs and while I'd like to be slightly more social I'm a bit more introverted and don't go well with that.)

Laughing, I think it's all gone to Facebook and offline.
