MODERATORS
It's an asynchronous conversation and you can't assume that someone received your reply immediately after they sent their text, even if you immediately respond as soon as you see it. There have been way too many times that I've witnessed where both people responded immediately, but one or more parts of the exchange were delayed, so no one got an immediate response and the conversation was spread across hours. This is especially true if one or more party in the exchange is traveling.
