i personally dont like chat rooms.... theres way too much stuff goin on there when you got like 50 ppl in there at the same time, its too agrivating and most of the time you arent noticed lol so BOOOOOO

chat room is great...i like it... suggestions:
allow pvt for people to get direct help, its much easier if you say post a question on the main thingy and someone answers in pvt so that you dont miss it for example:
void say: why am i such a dumbass
(!----you have received a private message from asok----!)
asok says: i dont know...but ur right...u are a dumbass
...okay...maybe that was a bad example...but u get the idea....and i suport the emoticons thingy...on a side note...are you guys selling advertisements..im getting more popups than usual..and i c taht dating crap....

i am not realy shure what you mean there void, we got pm. and as for the pop up's since i chaged the ads i have not goten 1 pop-up. if you are geting them could you tell me how many and how often.

i think void is trying to stear this site tawards a more direct, 1on1 help with programming, such as where you reply to posts in PM...

the thing is, it's better to leave it as a discussion board since you can get different approaches to same problem and everybody can benifit from a discussion.

Though I think we could come up with something like an alerter to when someone replies to your message if you're currently online or something. Talk to dan.

Well since we've had the chat room nobody has really used it, everytime Im around here noone's even in there, so I dont think we really need it
