It would just be a small chat box at the bottom or top (whichever everyone prefers) of the NMC boards that people could use to chat and what not. A few other UD forums use it such as this one for example. If we were to use one it would come from Cbox for any that are curious. I've already created an account and a chat box that I would be able to moderate so if someone got out of hand trolling or spamming the thing I could take care of it. The only thing is there is no way that I know of to hide it from unregistered users since the NMC forums are now completely open. So whatever is written in there will be for all to see. Which I really don't see as much of a problem really, this box is mostly just for casual talk and not anything particularly secretive. So that's it, if you think it's a dumb idea feel free to say so. I certainly don't want to slap the thing on here to see it go completely unused. If it does go up it would mostly be used by any NMC members (or anyone really) that just wanted to chat about what ever. I think it could be fun. It was just an odd thought I had, let me know your opinions. Poll will be up for a week, you guys know the drill.

*bump for more notice*
If I only get a handful of votes either way then this may not be worth doing at all.
Opinions please if you have them.

Well the poll is closed and as most of you can see we now have a chat box at the top of the NMC forums.
If you have any questions, complaints, or suggestions concerning the chat box then feel free to post them here.

How about separate chat boxes in all password-protected boards?

How about separate chat boxes in all password-protected boards? Could be a good idea, although a few groups have IRC for the more secretive things. The current chat box is an experiment to bring a bit more fun to the NMC community. I'll try and look into it though and perhaps some better smilies as well. Although I can change the smiley colors between orange, yellow, and blue if you guys prefer one of those over the other.

i think you should put it at the bottom. it's kinda annoying at the top I don't think it's that bad. If it were at the bottom I think it wouldn't be noticed or used as much. But if enough people are unhappy with it at the top I'll certainly move it. Glad to see it getting some use so far.
