How about a Forum Shoutbox?

It might keep hanging around the forums a little longer...

You can always pass restrictions on it to prevent spam, ex. 75 posts needed to access shoutbox...



This may have been suggested before, I wouldn't know. I know about the IRC, but isn't exactly the same. lol

Well the amount of mysql queries a shoutbox would generate would be humongous, so I don`t believe it will get implemented.

I think everybody should just use IRC since it's already in existence.
