Has anybody used the chatroom yet? I've tried to log on, but not a soul is ever there. I'm beginning to think we need to bring back the shoutbox.

I check the chat room each time I come here, but it's always vacant...
Yossarian
Ditto. It's awfully difficult to get even a couple of people in there at the same time.
Maybe we should have the webmaster ditch the chat room and go back to the shoutbox. I kinda miss the shoutbox anyhow! It was good for quickies that you really didn't want to start a topic for. Plus the shoutbox gave WVD something to do! biggrin.gif

I keep checking the room too and I'm all alone in there sad.gif
At least with the shout box you could get answers to the shouts. cool.gif
Guess we should get the box backbut before, every time I wanted to check the history I'd have to log-in.What a pain! rolleyes.gif

I was in the chat room a couple times when I saw that a bunch of members were logged in, but I too sat there all alone. sad.gif

I vote for the shout box as well.
Romulus
I think we need to bring shoutbox back as well. The chatroom is like Paris Hiltons head, EMPTY! tongue.gif
Yossarian
Yeah, Rom... but the rest of her is pretty well filled! biggrin.gif
Romulus
You can say that again. whats the old saying No brain, nice body? or cold hands warm heart? I dunno. wink.gif
WVDragonlady
I read that Yo!! dry.gif tongue.gif
Yossarian
Boy, talk about your delayed reaction.

<<<hugs>>> WVD! biggrin.gif
WVDragonlady
...awnry butt...anywho...

Oh Web Mistress!!!We need your guidance oh great one! tongue.gif
webbie
ok, what if we tried to have BOTH?

that way we could put a message in the shoutbox that lets everyone know there is a party going on in the chatroom...

When I upgraded the forums, the shoutbox script was not compatible. I will look and see if it has been brought up to speed and if not, I will see if I can fix it up :-)

I think 'both' is a great idea....and using the
shoutbox to announce upcoming 'chats' sounds
perfect...
Yossarian
Sounds like a plan!
Whatever you can do for us, I'm sure would be greatly appreciated! biggrin.gif

webmaster...while you're here...

How come the 'time' I see on the board is about
1/2 hour behind real time ???
webbie
That's a great question.

I don't have the answer. LOL

I looked into it once, but the reply I got was more complicated sounding than it seemed worth!

I try to get it resolved, someday...maybe . smile.gif
WVDragonlady
I knew our wonderful Misstress would have the answer!
Ain't she somthin?! biggrin.gif
Romulus
BTW, I'm sick today so i've been sitting all alone in the chat room all day. I'll stay logged until 4pm. Maybe, someone can relieve me of my boredom! wink.gif
WVU-Mountaineers
Well, if anybody's out there I'm in the chatroom! (Thurs 7:40)
webbie
OK, Shoutbox is back. Right now it is at the bottom of the front page of the forums.

Only thing is, I lost the chat room! LOL

I will find it and put it back on tomorrow :-)

Have fun!
