Skype groups are incredibly buggy, and only become moreso when a large number of people join a group. I consistently have trouble adding people, messages don't always show up, it's hard to keep track of what people have said, it's laggy and overall it provides little reason to use it outside of the convenience of already having Skype. Furthermore, skype groups have a hard limit on the number of people who can join which means moving on to a different medium was inevitable from the get-go. Honestly Skype is just not a good chatroom software, it was designed to be good for voice communication and 1 on 1 chatting and that's about it.
With that being said, I'm going to have people move over to a new thing called "Slack", which is kinda like an IRC except it's really easy to use and has some features that I really enjoy. If you want to be apart of the new group, please send me a Skype message (or email) with your email so I can invite you to the new slack chat group. I'm gonna close down this Skype group once I've properly moved everyone over.
