Hey to whoever has access to the file server,

I'm a webmaster myself and i was wondering,

You guys need a shoutbox installed on the front page so us members can communicate with each other. Like if you want us to hang around longer and become more active, it would be more wise to install a shoutbox so we could communicate and post threads / comment on threads.

Thanks,
Pwrup.

Shoutbox is where people can type messages in a chat box type thing and you guys can also have private chats between individual members

Because I'm familiar with the concept on a couple of other sites I visit, and there is generally negative feedback.

Looks messy/childish. People post some stupid stuff. People spam. It'll serve no purpose here and be dragged within a fortnight.

That's my POV.

True but with the right structure we can make it clean..

no, that's a terrible idea and you should abstain from presenting your opinion in future

Wasn't a opinion, it was just a idea which i think myself would help this community be more active if it was structured well

so therefore, it is in your opinion that this community needs this shoutbox

you're entitled to that, no problem, but puzzling you don't think you were offering a suggestion WITH what you think in your opinion this site is in need of, when you stated that very clearly lol

anyways, the season is about to kick off and imo, this site doesn't need it

just my 2 cents

the folks here will decide if they want it (well, admin and the moderating team will have a heavy hand in that decision) ;)

but thanks for being all justin beiber and getting proactive

:D

yes, a suggestion, that in your opinion, this site needs it. that's cool you are looking at ideas for what you think the site could do with

but as matty was saying, there use to be a chat thing, but it never really got used

but feel free to offer any other suggestions which you feel in your opinion the site could do with, by all means

all views welcome :grinning:
