Louis6321 Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 My suggestion is that we need an inbuilt shout box. (can be turned on/off) and in edit user groups thr can be features like "user can view shoutbox" and "user can shout in shoutbox"Just incase some ppl dont know what a shoutbox is, it's a small chat box at the top of the forum.

Watty Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 I'd have to say "No" as well... and here's why:A shout box is generally geared towards younger folks (I refer to them as the MySpace era). I can't lay an age as to what construes "younger folks", but I'd wager that the majority of folks who can afford and use IPB would be off put by a shout box.Fortunately, as has been mentioned, it is available as a free modification and is easily installed. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nimdock Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 Hate those things so I would have to say no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3DKiwi Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 No for me as well. It would make my site look unprofessional and as mentioned it's an easy matter to install a simple mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Clash Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 It'd be good for some situations, but not as a standard feature. I'd have to agree with everyone here and say no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
