Okay, my review of the wonderful chat session we had on 6th of October with Farah (original time-9.00pm)... Ok, call me nuts but I was at the Lounge at 8.15pm. There were only a few people at that time. The Farah logged in at 8.25pm or so. Then like everyone who was there, I was excited... well, nothing much happened, simple greeting session and a number of simple questions. Then Farah mentioned that she had quite a tiring day, and only got to sleep in the afternoon till 5 something. Considering this, she still came online and chatted with us. I really admire her... She then mentioned that she needed to download some java thingy, and would be back at 11pm. So we all said goodbye and went on to do what we wanted to do (i left my account logged on to lessen the hassle later)
Ok, nearing 11pm, the place was getting crowded again... Everyone was so excited. Then Farah's nick logged in. Everyone got excited, but it was lil Fareesya being a good sis and taking Farah's place (excellent job, Fareesya ), because she was goin to be late cos of dinner with her mum and aunt. Ok, then there was the logging in problem, cos everyone couldn't get into Farah World (cute name for a room...). Then some started to panic, but Kuaci, Ostro and Teng were good in giving instructions on what to do and asking people to calm down.
When the room finally was made (with no password cos it didn't work), lots of people got in. It was also quite public in a way, because anyone could join. But eventually because of the long wait, all that's left were Farahnatics, and a few others who were keen to meet Farah. Farah finally managed to log in rather late, but we all didn't mind. In fact we were so excited that the room was flooded. Then certain actions needed to be taken, because it was getting out of hand. Teng tried her best to be moderator, but there wasn't much that could be done. I dun blame her cos there wasn't any moderator tools (ie, block, ban, etc). Eventually Kuaci was hired to be the new moderator, and he handled it well, and people calmed down. We initiated a turn-based system, and alphabetically (according to nick), everyone got a chance to ask a question to Farah (tho a couple of people asked multiple questions). But Farah was really sporting and answered them all... (well mostly, hee hee). We had a long and nice session, and I got my turn late (one of the last... hehe) at almost 2am. Okay those who were there knew I was overjoyed by her response... After all is said and done, there was the flooded goodbye session. And I saw Farah trying her best to say goodbye to everyone. You're the best, Farah!
There were a few hiccups other than the logging in problems and the no-password thingy. There were a number of people who were quite rough in the use of language, but kuaci and ostro were quick to tell them to behave. Overall it was a great chat session, and I'm very sure everyone was satisfied in a way or another, despite having more questions to ask. Everyone was considerate and we knew that Farah needed rest and she also needs to wake up early for sahur meal in the morning. Not only that, she also has an appointment in the morning (goodness, so early!). But despite all that she still spent the time to understand her fans and also answer their queries. That's something that we should be proud of as Farahnatics, because we're supporting such a wonderful Idol.
Okay, too long liao, raptorclans over and out~
