Default Suggestion for a chatroom plugin for this board.
I've seen on other forums where they have a small little chatroom type of plugin for registered users. Just one main chatroom with no private rooms. Sites like a http://www.thecomputermechanics.com for example. thought it would be a neat little feature for this community. People can come in say their good mornings, goodnights or just do a nice and clean rant to get something off their chest. This has to be something clean of course because it would be real time in a way. Any thoughts on this suggestion??

Hehe, ok. I voted undecided, and there was only one other vote for no. I was kind of confused.

Hell no!!!! I've spent enough time in RFD each day. The last thing I want is another neat feature that'll make me spend more time here.

It's a neat idea, but it will get filled up with LFs and FSs...

but then again, we could always play pong...
"<tag> Ouroboros: lets play Pong

They could make the chatroom in the General Section only. No BST allowed in the chatroom.

That would only work if it was moderated. I doubt any mod is going to sign up for that.

Seeing as it'll be unmoderated I'd expect it to get pretty ugly in there.

Probably like the suggestion of a flaming forum, anything goes forum.

Yeah, I don't think there will ever be an official chatroom for this site just because of the modding issues.
