Re: Chat?
Maybe they do. Are you feeling nostalgic or are you just feeling lonely?

Re: Chat?
i am sure there must be a chat add-on in forumotion. chat will definitely bring luke warmus here. most of his stories about posters used to revolve around chat conversations overheard. but i am impressed by how he has assiduously managed to stay away from this forum for so long. he has big balls. impressed much.

Re: Chat?
Here are a few helpful commands for chat:
The Chatbox commands allow you, for an example, to delete messages,
ban or unban a member, etc. They are to type in the "message" block, as
you were posting a message.

/me | In the beginning of a sentence, this command will be replaced by your username (ex: /me eats a delicious pizza" will display "Nickname eats a delicious pizza") |
/exit | Disconnect from the Chatbox. You can also precise the reason that will be visible for all members connected (ex: /exit reason) |
/abs | Send a message noticing that you're absent. You can add a reason that will be displayed in the message and visible by all members connected to the Chatbox (ex: /abs reason) |

Re: Chat?
I have never really used a chat feature. How would a chat feature be different from what we have here? (I still don't know if I like the one we have here.)blabberwock wrote:seems to be a "shout box" than a chat.

Oh, the only chat I am familiar with was the one on Sulekha - it was called "digichat" and was separate from the main board. It used to pop up as a separate window.
Here, it seems like whatever you type will be visible to everyone logged on.

Those are for people who need to manage multiple, simultaneous affairs, Uppili. Not for staid folks like me.

Oh....yeahhhhhhh...How can I forget - that too after being "convicted" of such affairs by the Chief of the Inquiry Commission of CH.....
Unless, there is a separate pop-window, it is not very convenient. Or, one needs to open 2 browsers with 2 diff IDs to simultaneously use the Chat Box and the forum - too much work.

Re: Chat?
you can make it a separate pop up window by right clicking and selecting "this frame" --> "open this frame in new tab" in fox. you can then continue to chat in a new tab even after you have logged out of the forums -- i just tested it.
edit. correction: it seems you can't chat if you are logged out here.

Re: Chat?
if I click on chatbox or archives, it opens a separate new window for me. I don't know why I would want to sign in with another id though.

For chat to be riotous, you need at least LW, TS, MO, QB, BW, DUT, and not to Mention Saamiyaar, and of course, with Sublime, Roja, and a couple of others watching from aside -
Basically, it would be Second world war live with 4 parties fighting with each other at any given time.

Re: Chat?
nutmeg, i don't think it is possible (going by my chat with him). this is all what forumotion offers and it doesn't have pm, anonymous logging in or elimination of archives. yenzoy.
edit. btw, i like it.

Re: Chat?
as nutmeg mentioned in chat, if you click on chatbox in your chatbox frame, the chat box will open up in a new window/tab across browsers. .
