Actually, it is in fact me not I.

I want to thank .... for chatting with (remove Nilbog and) me.

[YES] For chatting with me.

[NO] For chatting with I.

The rule is that you come after those listed as the nouns or direct objects... and that to determine the appropriate use of I or me you remove others in the list and form the sentence with you as the only noun/D.O.

Edit: My god, the grammar nazi in me wanted to jump on this so quickly, that I hadn't caught Rogean's absolutely correct defense of his use of me and not I. Sorry for the late back-up!
Double-Edit: And with my lack of evidence other than my own personal experience with the rules of grammar, my back-up is unnecessary and trite at this stage of the thread. I may just remove it.
Followup-Edit: Nah.

Truth.
