Think it'd be a gas to have us all able to chat.

Anyone else?

Like this site needs anything else to increase load on my poor server! :nono:

IRC Chat, while its nice, is considered a security risk because of the scripting it uses. I would be more inclined to run a vChat (vBulletin) or PowerChat by Invision.

It would be nice, but imagine 3000+ people in one room!

A chat room would be cool, but I like to sound as intelligent as possible. Chatting in real time would prohibit me from looking up information before posting.

Lane ~ Dude I was thinking the exact same thing just today. A chat room would be super kool. I guess great minds and all.

Of course if I was going to do it I would break it into different categories with a main/lobby like room for general chat. But that's just me.

If I may add some words of wisedom from a...wise...man:

Git R Dunnn.

But, I thinks it's a great idea if we can get it to work. If not, then thanks again for everything this site already offers Brad. Seriously.

It could be done fairly easily and could be tied into the forum. But we need to work a few things out as far as site/forum load goes before we add anymore high useage tools.

I imagine the Europeans would feel very lonely...

I'm for it, but the site load might be too much...
