I get what you mean though. You can have real time conversation in a forum setting almost as well as an IM setting. Each would require both people to be online at the same time and typing messages back and forth. The forum just lets everyone join in. I have had a few times on here where I get to talking with someone and we are just posting back and forth. My hesitation on having IMs here is that the forum seems to be slowing down too much anyway. When I joined two years(ish) ago it was much more active and people even then said it was dying. If you want more interactions with people here, post more. I have been trying to do this recently myself.
