Now Proboards has a chat feature you can add, and that's a hell of a lot easier than someone trying to make a java chatroom and making it a sticky of the link on the ooc sections...
Thought it would be a good idea...

Now Proboards has a chat feature you can add, and that's a hell of a lot easier than someone trying to make a java chatroom and making it a sticky of the link on the ooc sections... Thought it would be a good idea... Oh chat feature, how do I loathe thee? Let me count the ways.... 1. First and foremost, it's a lagger. I, for one, am unable to run anything that requires a highspeed internet connection considering my dialup status right now. 2. We've discussed this a few times on the old forum, not only in the VIP but in a board-wide discussion, and came to the conclusion that people are content with the way the board is as it stands. The chat feature is just something that -begs- for someone to screw around with it and spam it. 3. I have neither the time nor the patience to set it up, right now. Nuff said there. 4. It's coding. It slows the site down all in all, and that's never a good thing. Yes, I'm aware the lagging factor was mentioned twice, y'wanna know why? Because it's twice as important as everything else. No chat feature. Nada, nicht, zilch. |

Dante... there's also this little program called MSN... and I believe also something like AIM... and something that binds it all together  Now, on the site here, I believe there was a thread which involved the msn/aim adresses of most of the active rp-ers. So you can chat there while rp-ing and the board doesn't have to slow down. |

I find it ironic to put a chat feature on a forum.

I find it ironic to put a chat feature on a forum. I think it'd be ironic, if we were all made of iron |

Might I draw your attention upward to the post where I explicitly stated (In slightly different terms) that I would have be dead and buried in holy ground for three full days before I'd allow such an atrocity to sully the good name of our site? Thank you. |

Oh, I read it very clearly....I think you underestimate the depths of my hatred for such things.....I HAVE to express it whenever given the chance.
or before you know it, I'm delivering your mail with an uzi.
