Integrating it straight into the forum index would cause alot of flooding in flashchat and it's more convienent in general to have a pop-up chat so you can use the forum and the chat at the same time.

Flashchat is crap :P its never used lol...
Also this suggestion has been suggested WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY too many times and been denied everytime, i'm sure once we had it activated at night, and off during the day? or was that another forum? :P
As stated we provide a chat currently for members to use. :) We wouldn't ever try (again) as Jin said to add a shoutbox due to the fact we have too many users and the software is too resource hungry. Also the fact the chat is almost the same thing anyway - I don't see a problem with what we currently provide.
That's the problem with the chat atm :P no-one uses it >_>
You don't need to explain how to use the plugin/hack, I think Jin knows how to add it :P
Also, a javascript chatbox would be useles with the forum's user base.
All the more reason that adding a shout box would be pointless? :P Really if no one uses the chat why would they want to use a shout box. Additionally it really isn't a good idea and wouldn't work as it's been attempted in the past.Quote:
