The Gathering

The Gathering is one of the oldest talkers still running. It is based around groups rather than rooms and to improve the experience, users can be in several groups at the same time. This enables you to chat in one of the public groups, chat privately with friends or loved ones and discuss your favourite band with a group of fans.

Unlike most talkers, there are no staff to manage interpersonal disputes. Instead, users are given the power to protect themselves from verbal attack - even going as far as being able to ban other users.

Combined with both these features are all the standard facilities you expect from a modern talker - mail, news, games, ANSI color - making it a fun and enjoyable play to chat for everyone.
