works if you have paid membership..however with everyone all over the world it can be a bit hit and miss to catch people on at same time.

and other person has to be paying member too.

If you want to private chat, best option is to type a message on both forums asking if anyone fancies/you need help etc whatever..then click where it says click here.

You can tell if anyone is on as their name appears above the chat box..you may see some old chats on there too.

You can click view as popup then it opens as a different screen on your computer which means you can carry on reading/typing whilst waiting for someone to chat x
