chat room

[James]

It's 1.32 am here and there are about 12 registered members online. So I reckon a chat room would work nicely here. Have you considered installing one?

 

[Edwin]

I think that's because we're all reloading the Exclusive Member popcorn-fest thread

But more generally, a chat room might be good.

There used to be one but I think it was a bit cpu heavy when it got busy.

Perhaps a 3rd party chatroom like Parachat would do the trick. Since they're remotely hosted service providers, it would have zero impact on the main forum hosting.

Yup chat was good, just need to get people into it when it was up!!!

Was quite lively

If you guys want i can setup an irc server for this community to communicate or chat with each other.

 

[charlie]

IRC is a good idea but personally i never have access (firewalled) because they keep catching me downloading MB's!

i am happy to host a chat room on my server if admins is happy to link to it...

just what we need something else to become addicted too

 

[SF]

Revisiting this,

Flashchat works very nicely indeed and since this forum gets 20 members online regularly now, and it only takes 5 mins to install...

You can see Flashchat working at Gambling.co.uk Forum

well, ... why not, eh?

 

[Admin]

yes it killed the server when i tried it before, the host suspended my account even with only a few users :-(

 

[SF]

well..... we do like a good natter Admin

hahaha and Im not sure how to moderate a chat room.....

Flashchat is very light on bandwidth, but really does eat CPU time.
It is very good, I use it, but only on my own servers.

 

[James]

Flashchat shouldn't pose any problem at all... you just have to make sure you upload all the files in the correct mode.

I've been messing round with some irc scripts recently, would be happy to host something if it will be used. Here's an example I just set up, come in and say hello
