I also do think that the chat threads are quite cliquey. Not that anyone seems to be deliberately made unwelcome, but people who dont usually post there will be pretty much ignored a lot of the time. Its always been like that though, I just didn't really see it when I was 'part' of that group.]

But again, its like that in real life too. if a group of friends is talking and a randomer comes to join in, people tend to pay much more attention to their mates
