good idea

I am thinking something like a yahoo IM

i know there are some free scripts out there for chat rooms, or if the moderators choose to go from scratch give me a pm, i'd be glad to try and help out.

that'd be cool, c'mon moderators

anything happening here or the moderators ignoring us?

See I tried doing this but there is not much interests.
there is usually only like 2-3 people on at a time,
I will look into it and let you guys know! I have to talk to Marcus and see what the DSMCentral Godfather thinks

I thought we tried this before or at least considered it anyway. There just aren't enough 'active' members to make it usefull in my opinion. Plus Mike has more than enough to do with all the extras he has added to this site. I don't want to burden him any further.

If there is some way to do this without any further maintenance and it can be at least partially presentable on the main forum page It might be worth while. However, one of the positives to useing forums for all discussions is the automatic archival of information passed around. In a chat room any good info will be lost to all those not currently chatting at the time.

didn't CII have one at one time? there was only a couple people on there at a time as I recall and this being a smaller "group" I don't see how it would be efficient to have one.

why not just make one on yahoo or something like that? That way Mike doesnt have to worry about it....maybe just put a link to it on the "links" page?

If someone once to set one up somewhere else and get it running I would be more then glad to put links to in on this site. Other then that I back up what Marcus say, Mike dont have enough time to fix shit around here as it is!

i might dick around with it... when time permits.
