Some may have noticed already the little "shoutbox" at the top of the Main Page of the forum.

I had a simple request to add this as an option.

I left the "LIVE Chat" up also, so both can be tested and reviewed upon.

Let me know if you guys would rather have the flash chat, shoutbox, both, or neither.

Thanks.

I like the chat box. Cause I can access it on my phone. Can't post on live chat on my phone without difficulties

I really don't know enough about any of the choices to pick one...

The reason it's set to one page is due to server loads.

I have enabled it on every page, for a test run.

I'm in chat now, but nothing I post shows up.

When you hit enter nothing it posted to the message box, or you cannot see my posts?

I can see you posting, "Test", and "in"

I can't see anything on the chat screen on my end, yours or mine.

I like it better in the sperate window only. Its just annoying now, if anything, put it on the bottom of the page so we dont have to scroll past it just to read a thread.

On mobile it is kinda annoying. But you can click the arrow on the side and hide it.

I have no probs on my desktop or laptop. Eitherway its an improvement from past

I don't mind it either way. One question tho, the "time" that shows, which time zone does it go by?

Don't know, it does not say in any of the settings. I would imagine whoever created a mod set it to that specific time zone. I removed the time stamps in the chatbox, but they can still be viewed in the "full" shoutbox option/archive.
