Welcome to the zoo, Jez! We're only dangerous at feeding time. There is no MudCat chat per se, just this posting fourm, where we often do chat, but it's not quite "live chat" For that, as they said above, use PalTalk, or get a chat number, lots of us have them for ICQ, etc. Do go and read the Newcomer's FAQ, it will help a lot! Good to have you!
