Live Chat..
« on: 06 March 2009, 18:49 »
Hi all, just been thinking.. a live chatroom like a web-based IRC client might be a good idea for the forum to have! I think it'd be really good to be able to go on and talk to people in real-time and "chat" rather than just the discussions on the forum. Handy for getting really quick advice too!

Had a search on the forum and found this thread from Topher many years ago! http://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=4140.0


Any chance of getting this set up with a link at the top of the page for it? ;)

Didn't really work out well last time. It was okay for a while but once the novelty wore off it was either left empty or had a bunch of people in it b!tching at eachother.

Actually.. during the trial run I just popped the java applet to a private channel on one of my existing servers, which had around 300 american teens on it at any one time. Someone on here wandered into another channel and ended up getting one of the teens on webcam :lipsrsealed:  I moved it to a different server after that... :grin:
