If you keep message size small, people will tend to keep the "good" content posts in the forums, where they belong.
They're not all that difficult to code, I coded one into my in a couple hours.
Bandwidth due to frequent refreshes could get to be an issue, but probably not if you host it on the main page instead of the forum pages. I'd guess that most people hang out in the forum and only irregularly hit the main page.
Of course, that begs the question of how useful the chatbox would be... *shrug*Statistics: Posted by BigPhish — Thu Sep 01, 2005 2:25 pm
