[Idea for begginer Listeners] Spectate other people's chats
I'd like to see your point of view on this, but I think being able to see how someone deals with different situations from time to time would help a lot.
I think there could be a "Click here to spectate a conversation" thing, then we would be connected to someone's chat.
Because of privacy, the Listener or Listened would be able to turn a "switch" to make sure the chat is not available to be read, and also kicking all current spectators.
Sorry if this is too vague!

Hey, sorry that you didn't get a response sooner. Thanks for sharing your idea.
I really like this idea as it would be hugely beneficial for new listeners, but even with the switch, a lot of people would dislike being observed and so they would have it turned off always. Listeners may also feel extremely uncomfortable being watched just in case they make a mistake and it would put a lot of pressure on them. Some listeners may need more training so we wouldn't want listeners to observe them and pick up bad habits and think it's okay to behave the way they do. People would still feel it goes against confidentiality too.
I believe there are sections of the forums with mock chats in that listeners can read to get an idea of how to handle certain situations too.
