hello there ![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
i've recently registered here because i plan on moving to toronto in a couple of months and i wanted to ask if any of you know of any interesting chat rooms or forums, so i can get to know some people up front... getting a feeling for the society, maybe getting to know somebody i can hang out with then i couple of months or something like that...
while this forum is great for people living in toronto, talking about very toronto-specific things, as you know, there's not much going on when it comes to things like e.g. movies, politics, art, music, games or just random discussions.
and that's what i'm looking for... whether in form of chat rooms with lots of users (but still quality over quantity...) or a nice little forum (level of activity at least like this one).
somebody in another forum already recommended the community section at CBC but after looking at the user comments for some news stories, i got the impression that there were a lot of conservative and/or ignorant people hanging out there - not really my kind of crowd.
also, i've tried out the irc-channel #toronto on efnet and was greeted by one of the channel operators with "fuck off" (no misunderstanding here, he referred to my nickname)...
oh, just one more thing - you might have already guessed it from the CBC-thing - it doesn't need to be a toronto-community. i'd prefer it but ontario or even for all of canada would be alright as well.
i hope someone here can help me out![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
