At first I didn't know what it was, now that I have googled it, it sounds like a not to bad idea.

EiAh · Apr 7, 2008

It doesn't matter to me.

ShadowFold · Apr 7, 2008

Isnt that the same thing as the chat?

sneekypeet · Apr 7, 2008

Agreed and that didnt last a week with more than one or two people to use it!

The feature is still alive and no one is using it...if W1z named it the SHOUTBOX would you use it more?

EiAh · Apr 7, 2008

+1 I totally agree.

PVTCaboose1337 · Apr 8, 2008

I hate the shout boxes... they are lame imo...

I agree here, rename chat to shoutbox and be done with it.

I ALWAYS FORGET ABOUT THE CHAT!!!! I don't know why I just do. :banghead:

I loved that box at PlanetAMD64. If you add it, I will use it. Sometimes, every once and a while

Can someone put up a poll? I will be sure to vote against it.

EDIT: In addition, I think it is unwise of some n00b who joined 8 days ago to suggest something.

i think you are not being wise by putting down someone that has ideas and wants to contribute to and improve tpu. who gives about "age", hes got ideas, contribution and dedication (~40 ppd.. wow).

i think the main problem with the chat is that its not really integrated into the forums, if it was integrated into the forums as shoutbox, like the chat at the bottom of the page as an optional frame or something that'd certianly make the chat much better etc.

Shoutbox goes on top of the Latest Posts and Headlines, I highly doubt it would be a failure unless you deliberately made it a external link like Chat. I would like to see it

If it was integrated in every forum page I think it would be great.

Skrabrug · Apr 12, 2008

if it does get integrated can it please have no sound?
a few other sites I'm on have them and they make an anoying "pop" sound everytime somone makes a comment, so its like:

*checks news*
pop
pop
pop
pop
"wtf is that sound?"
pop pop
pop
"arrrughhhh"
pop
pop
"I'll check back in another month"
pop pop pop
pop
*logs off*
