easiest thing would be setting up a private google chat group. people only added after authenication by a known trusted person. aka no grover, no D&D counter-invaders, no trolls besides the homegrown gip trolls.

Zeris posted:I think we better decide whether this is purely to link up and matchmake folks to chat offline however they like, or if it's going to house its own discussion so others can weigh in and offer advice. whatever happens there's still the irc gip channel. having a hosted site is nice but gently caress it i prefer the cloud...using burner social media ids & email addresses in case personal info accidently gets leaked again.

Zeris posted:...I also think as long as we have a secure&anonymous way to link up, there doesn't need to be NSA proof encrypted 9304-bit secured transmissions or whatever. I mean, I would (for myself) just want to look up someone and dial his google voice number (for example) and connect to him. i'm a big fan of keeping things simple when trying to future proof things involving a large group of people. thats why i keep mentioning google hangouts & a dedicated Gip Hangouts group, to be used in addition to whatever GetHelp website or GetHelp forums get created or shared. plus-side: Hangouts is better than IRC, and isn't facebook. people can always use Google Voice #'s if they don't want to share their personal #'s. Google Hangout's message history feature is good for our types of issues. downside: you need to be logged into google hangouts app. this may mess with peoples preferred SMS/texting app. Hangouts isn't facebook. https://support.google.com/hangouts/answer/3111943?hl=en quote:When you leave a group Hangout a few things will happen: I vote Shim as the proposed Google Hangouts admin/creator.

Christoff posted:How does google hangouts work exactly? I know it's kind of like a chat room where you can send pictures and stream webcam but is it always there even if no one is signed into it or? the chat room stays there forever basically, and it caches messages for you indefinitely. u on steam chat? e: and I love my new google email address. quantumfoam fucked around with this message at 22:25 on Nov 2, 2014 |

Christoff posted:The google hangouts gonna be strictly for "get help" or is it irc kk moker and friends party zone 2.0 i'm treating google hangouts as a strictly "get help" thing, but if people want to make it the party zone, it's cool with me. If people hate that idea, irc party zone 2.0 can be split off into another hangouts channel.

google hangout chat seems to work ok. message with different people history appears on multiple devices,and there is options to block/archive/forget message histories. the google hangouts plugin for the chrome browser kinda sucks rear end, so i suggest using the google hangouts app on your smartphone or tablet devices. delizin website thing: it sounds very overkill/designed as more of a global get-help system than the lowkey Don't loving kill yourself/loving call someone in GiP to talk you down if you feel suicidal we need to avoid another Schneider event.

people who asked me for hangout invites & have gotten zero responses from me: i don't read the gip threads you post in, sorry. drunk chat & monthly vet chat are the only gip threads i read now. AB, Christoff, Cole, Zeris, etc will happily auth you in after proper vetting.

Rucksack 2K14 posted:On a tangentially related note, the Google Hangout thing sounds like a good group for established regulars, but this whole "I don't know you so you have to PM other people and wait on a reply" is likely to be a major hindrance for crisis situations and lurkers. Yeah, thats the major issue with the GiP hangout thread in a get-help sense. In regards to crisis situations, there's at least 1-3 people active in the hangouts chat at all times. In regards to GiP lurkers, well that's why there's been 2 different GiP get-help threads and why the whole vetting thing exists....people started sharing the personal contact info listed in the 1st GiP get-help thread to other SA subforums, and it was a real invasion of privacy for everyone involved in the 1st GiP get-help thread. In regards to people who having been posting here forever, there's been so many name changes, reregs & bans for 80% of the GiP regular posters, that it's very hard to keep track of who's who. Especially if you only regularly read 4 threads in gip like me(drunk thread, veteran thread, games thread, and this thread). If you don't regularly post in the threads I read I probably don't remember who you are. Having multiple people on the contact list makes it easier for GiP regulars to be identified & invited to the Hangouts chat ASAP. GiP Lurkers need to go the extra step or just post about their issues so we know something is up. HClChicken: sorry man.

Pesticide20 posted:I've been in this weird place lately where I've been having some suicidal thoughts and done some stupid poo poo because I've been depressed. However, I've been seeing Behavioral Health and talking to my therapist has been good for me. Tomorrow I should be getting a prescription to help with my lack of sleep and to not feel so down, which I am a little scared of, because I definitely don't want to be dependent on pills. Anyway, after my session today I went back to work and it became suuuuuuuuper uncomfortable because my therapist let my leadership know about my suicidal thoughts, which I understand, but goddamn if I don't want every motherfucker above me suddenly caring about me and making sure to tell me that they love me and poo poo. I'm not even sure of what I'm trying to say right now. I guess I just wanted to air my thoughts with all of you. hop in the hangout & vent about how uncomfortable you feel. pm me, n4dicks, n4ass, or usmc503 if you aren't already in.
