Site Chatroom

AvengingGibbons · #1 08-19-2010, 05:21 AM

Implement a chatroom into this site.. it might help to limit the spam. This way, casual chat can be had in the chatroom, and not in the forums. I've seen them on forums before. Look into it.

That's what OddChat is.

But as much as everyone would like OddChat to be a great place to go, the sad truth is that it's fallen into disrepair repeatedly because nobody ever goes there.

AvengingGibbons · #3 08-19-2010, 05:24 AM

Ohhh.. well in that case, it would be a good idea to have a chatroom as part of the forum.. that way, if you're logged in to the forum, you are also logged into the chatroom. You know like how facebook chat works? Like that.

I'm sure i've seen forums using this concept.

***Nate*** · #4 08-19-2010, 05:25 AM

Or, you know, that would be freaking irritating. Suddenly everyone would change their settings to be invisible.

AvengingGibbons · #5 08-19-2010, 05:35 AM

I'm sure you could customise the way it functions, to make it less freaking irritating

***Nate*** · #6 08-19-2010, 05:41 AM

I'm pretty sure we're all thinking the same thing right now. It doesn't need to be said.

Am I starting a meme here?

AvengingGibbons · #7 08-19-2010, 05:48 AM

I'm thinking you're loving my idea

Ridg3 · #8 08-19-2010, 05:50 AM

I'm thinking that this is gonna get closed...

***Wil*** · #9 08-19-2010, 05:50 AM

Your idea is somewhat academic. There are only two people who implement such a thing, and we aren't them.

***Nate*** · #10 08-19-2010, 06:39 AM

And seeing as vBulletin doesn't support such a feature, it's academic even to them.

***Wil*** · #11 08-19-2010, 07:13 AM

I've seen chatrooms integrated into vBulletin boards.

STM · #12 08-19-2010, 07:45 AM

Yeh, why not use chatango and put it at the bottom of the page.

EDIT: I can see less spam this way, what with the more traffic we will receive when the new stuff goes up.

OANST · #13 08-19-2010, 10:46 AM

Just use Oddchat. It still works.

STM · #14 08-19-2010, 12:28 PM

No one is ever on

OANST · #15 08-19-2010, 12:52 PM

Remedy that. Be on.

Alf Shall Rise · #16 08-19-2010, 04:27 PM

:

Yea, exactly, go on. The chat will stay dead if no one decides to go there. Besides, right now two people are on the chat, including me. If more people went on the chat right now, it would probably be pretty active.

Pilot · #17 08-19-2010, 09:24 PM

Yeah, I would actually love to hop on chat but nobody's ever on Oddchat.

Hmm, dilemmas....

Alf Shall Rise · #18 08-19-2010, 09:27 PM

I'm on it right now. We could talk.

Forever.

Pilot · #19 08-19-2010, 09:50 PM

GET ON ODDCHAT NOW WE"S GOTS 4 NIGGAS ON YO

EDIT

Come on guys, you're missing out! Here's an excerpt

:

(Pilot) BUH
(SektoSprings) Wheres Lorne?
(SektoSprings) Why isnt he here
(Pilot) There's like a 5 minute pause between teh two
(Alf) Oh.
(Pilot) so a disjointed 'buh' just pops up like 5 minutes later, after you've moved onto other topics of conversations. Or in the utter silence that's certain to follow.
(SektoSprings) Yeah
(SektoSprings) its an ongoing joke
(Pilot) Call Gay
(MeechCrunchies) Buh
(Pilot) do it
(Pilot) NO TOO SOON!
(SektoSprings) i cant "call" him
(SektoSprings) I dont have his number
(Pilot) Call him on your RonaldPhone
(MeechCrunchies) I can
(Pilot) HAPPY HAPPY
(Pilot) *picks up phone*
(Pilot) "You don't say..."
(SektoSprings) My Ronaldphone ony calls ronald
(Pilot) "You don't say!"
(SektoSprings) and I dont want him here right now
(Pilot) "YOU DON"T SAY!"
(Pilot) Ronald, who was it?
(Alf) Uh
(Pilot) He didn't say.
(SektoSprings) Haw haw haw
(Alf) Har har
(Pilot) Ronald makes it... Magic!
(Pilot) Are you guys too young to remember that commercial
(Pilot) THE STUPID HAPPYPHONE
(Pilot) GRR
(Pilot) I HATED THAT SO MUCH
(Pilot) HAPPY HAPPY
(SektoSprings) Hahaha
(SektoSprings) I remember it
(Pilot) IT JUST HAS THE OPPOSITE EFFECT
(Pilot) GRR!
(Alf) I see
(Pilot) It wasn't just that, the 'happy happy' ring was like a hyperactive klown voice
(Pilot) DUMB!
(Pilot) Let me see if I can find it.
(SektoSprings) So Alf
(SektoSprings) Whats up
(Alf) Just talking to you guys

Havoc · #20 08-19-2010, 10:08 PM

Stupid thing don't even work for me. Gives me an error.

Alf Shall Rise · #21 08-19-2010, 10:13 PM

Make sure that Java is enabled on your computer.

Pilot · #22 08-19-2010, 10:14 PM

Tough.

http://www.pjirc.com/help.php

Make sure you have Java installed.

Havoc · #23 08-19-2010, 10:39 PM

I have Java installed. Dur.

Pilot · #24 08-19-2010, 10:45 PM

I think you have too much java installed. That's the problem.

Havoc · #25 08-19-2010, 10:48 PM

Better to have too much Java and not need it, instead of not having Java and need it.

Completely ignoring ofcourse that it doesn't work half the fucking time.

Pilot · #26 08-19-2010, 11:19 PM

Delerium often occurs when you've had too much Sun.

Phylum · #27 08-19-2010, 11:28 PM

Oh, you.

***Nate*** · #28 08-20-2010, 01:06 AM

It doesn't work for me, but I'm at uni and most of the ports are blocked. Is that possible for you too, Havoc?

Havoc · #29 08-20-2010, 09:06 AM

Maybe, but it would have to use some freaky ass ports.

STM · #30 08-20-2010, 11:36 AM

No doesn't work for me either, in fact it only worked once ever and no one was on.
