Suggestion: Chatbox

[Zekai]

I'm not sure if it's possible but how about a chatbox so we can chat with everyone. If it's not possible then that's ok. I figure I ask anyways.

[Kristia]

it is a good idea, since we may have quick things to say, and it avoids double posting

[Katrix]

Most people use mumble for that

[Zekai]

and mumble is what exactly?

[Tenko]

VIoP. Basically Skype, but group chat. And it isn't under surveillance by NSA.

[Zekai]

and there's one for here i'm guessing.

But having something on site will be better for those who don't want to download it and still want to chat.

After doing some research I have realized THAT, there is no default way to actually get a chatroom, which makes VBulletin dumb. I feel that invision power services inc has a lot more stuff, like chat, being able to make websites, and download management. Only problem though is the price, WHICH I CAN'T FIND ANYWHERE. BBut then again, it's going to be a complete time waster actually setting up the pages, forum sections, moving all the people over there, copying some threads, etc etc that will actually make remi say "uguu, I'll rather not." Although he MIGHT consider it a good idea, It's going to pain in the ass and ALL of the staff will be lazy to do it.

NOTE: Found the price, it depends how many users will be online at once, assuming there is 40 people online at once, price will be 30$/month, if 65, then 45$/month. Okay, now assuming that he buys a license, He has to buy the REQUIRED Core + ip.board which is 175$, with 25$ 6 month renewal, and 20 users in the ip.chat, that will be 10$ every 6 months, which at the end brings a price oooooof ... 185$ with 35$ 6 month renewal. Now, to compare the price of vBulletin® Version 4.1.4, it's... FREE. Seriously, VBulletin version 4.1.4 is a beta version and assuming it's this http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/forum...e-for-download then it's free at no cost. This also explains a few stuff. Oh well, didn't realize until I searched it up. Still, buying from http://www.invisionpower.com/buy does seem to have a few advantages to VBulletin but at the expense of 6 month renewals.

Or we could just set up a IRC.

[Remilia Scarlet]

I could actually set up an IRC easily enough, but that begs the question: Why not just set up and install mumble then? Not everyone has IRC and tbh, I think IRC is a bit more daunting than mumble.

[Kristia]

what about this chat? its on browser itself, but idk what program it uses, I didn´t have to install anything for it to appear

[Remilia Scarlet]

That's a plugin on the forums and I'd rather no install a forum chatbox due to prior experience with them. Again, I don't see why taking 30 seconds to install Mumble is such a big issue. You can chat, use voice if you want, and even post images on mumble without having to link.

[Kristia]

oh so I can chat by writing instead of using voice? (laptop can´t work with microphone and related ^^; )

[Shimitty]

there are alot of people who don't talk in mumble. It's just kinda nice to hear those who can sometimes.
