So there's been some talk between the forumgoers about adding a shoutbox. Just out of curiosity, let's see how you guys generally feel about it.

But let me be clear, whatever the outcome, the shoutbox is not guaranteed.
Vote away!

I don't really think there's a need for the shoutbox. The forums are just about dead anyway...

It can be useful to spam stuff in it, But f11.

Hate to rain on your parade but I don't see this happening

Laser Guy · « **Reply #5 on:** April 14, 2010, 07:40:57 am »

I wasn't expecting this to get anywhere anyway so I'm not surprised really. But it never hurts to try.

People not intelligent enough to use irc have no business spamming up a shoutbox that's already redundant.

F11

Not that I'm a fan of the shoutbox concept, but it's not really the same as IRC to begin with

jrgp · « **Reply #8 on:** April 14, 2010, 11:33:32 am »

They definitely have their differences, yeah, but they largely serve the same purpose.

Except the mIRC channel is always dull as fuck.

It couldn't hurt. Just have it on the forum frontpage, and whoever wants to use it can use it.

Horve · « **Reply #11 on:** April 14, 2010, 01:08:55 pm »

I want Tumor to use it 24/7

That would be the only way to prove a point. Or hit rock bottom.

... Maybe you should actually go out some day...
There's not enough activity here for a shoutbox. Those who tend to chat usually have some other ways to chat already.

+ who cares for that? Same as the LobbyChat

PANZERCATWAGON · « **Reply #14 on:** April 15, 2010, 11:29:34 am »

before asking yourself - would i prefer a shoutbox, you must first ask yourself - do i even give a s**t about the shoutbox

F12. And make the shoutbox available only for these, who have more than 100 posts. >:C

What's the point of that? Some of the best people here have under 100 posts.

Graham · « **Reply #17 on:** April 16, 2010, 10:19:48 am »

Anyone that still thinks the forum's irc is a reasonable argument is all wrong. Everyone that made that place interesting is gone. It wouldn't hurt to try a shoutbox out for a month. Then keep it or ax it based off that trial.

Oh and Bone Collector, go back to not being around here. No one wanted to see you again.

t you are my hero
