Hey Diz,
I was wondering (brought on by recent discussions) how feasable it would be to have v5 or v6 incorporate a chatroom?

I understand that it would probably be difficult to make, but I think its worth considering.

I like the plan, but like I said before, there are too many people that spam for the score. It would work if there were more people that didn's care about the points there and would actualy use it.

I figured it was worth bringing up because there has been so much talk about it (like the proposed hentai forum), and ig reminded me of it

i think it's a bad idea; it would make the forum less usefull..

People who spam for post points won't use it, and most others chat with their friends thru MSN messenger or some other program like it.

if you want to chat, use MSN/AIM/YIM/ICQ. Some of these IM progs already took chat a step further.

Ditto. Prefer forums to real-time chat

I really think we don't need it.

Forums are for different purpose than chats, and I don't see a need for a chat in WBW.
If you want to chat real-time with someone, get their msn/icq/whatever and use that.

And we tried IRC already, and that didn't work. That's a great real world example how the idea of chatting outside WBW don't work.

It'll just die like the other 2.

For anybody that doesn't like the spam threads, get over it, you don't have to go into them.

I think MSN is perfectly good. We did try to have a chat once but it didn't work, hardly anyone went there.
