I agree... One of the sites I used tio Admin, had chat nights every week, usually Mondays. The process was simple. One user was selected to talk about a topic, and, they 'presented it' in some form, and the rest of the membership had a discussion about it.. The topics rarely had to do with the site contents too, so that way people got to know each other, see each others other interests, etc.. Maybe a good idea to replicate here? They always turned out to be good, and, they ended up bringing people together more.
