See, you post, people reply, then you reply later, and so on. Its quite difficult to run a live chat on a forum, as it tends to be quite slow for those purposes.

What you write here is in the public eye. If you want to send something privately to another, use the private messaging system. Basically, if your click the users name (at the top of posts they make), a list will drop down, with an option to private message that user. You can also use "quick links" at the top of each page, or read the FAQ's for more help.
