people log on at all different times of the day. You should schedule a user chat at a certain time on certain days or something so everyone knows that everyone else will be online and we can discuss something.. then again it could cause ruckus as everyone's typing in a thought or question totally irrevelant to what someone else may type lol

I'll look at some options and see what I can do.

If you want I can give you my website and you can you my chat box. I will try to post a chat box k.

I mean it's not a problem adding a chatbox, there are plenty of options for VB forums. But do we need one, and is it worth the extra lag put on the forums?

Yea, I think it is. And it will be eaisier to talk to people then threads. To many threads will slow down the site.

Added to my to-do list..

Same here, a chat box on top would be nice. Some questions can be answered faster with it, but if it gets out of control take it down. Dont want to see excessive spam of questions!

**aspkin** · #12 03-31-2009

Okay, a chat box is up.. let me know what you think.

I think it gets in the way a little bit, let me know if you think otherwise and I'll try to tone it down.

*checks off 'add chat box to forum', from to-do list.

Cheers!
