The chat module is really cool!
"But" since we rarely have more than 1-2 folks at a time on here, should we keep it?

It's no problem loading now that I have my new system. But before, my net connection wasn't the greatest in the world and I noticed a bit of a lag in the pages loading because it was loading the chat module.

Other than a few folks when it was first loaded using it, I don't think anyone has used it since. (Of course I haven't been around for a little over a month)

Thots?

It's one of those things that would be cool if more people used it. Hard to say if it will be used more in the future.

Who are you again? Are you a member?

Since most of us have jobs and can't chat all day, I would say to nix it. Unless you can move it to it's own page. I don't like having to scroll down every time I go to a page.

Kinda my thoughts.

Maybe if I get a few minutes this weekend I'll look into the coding for it and see if it can be relocated.

Couldn't see how to move it so I crushed it. No more chat module!

Was there a way to resize it?

Maybe if it wasn't so big.
Dunno, maybe if it was only about an inch or so tall it'd be a LOT better and it wouldn't take up the whole screen when the page opened.
The first time I saw it I thought we'd changed over to a chat room.

It was good for calling attention to something important that had been posted.

Or, another thought, if it could only be active on the main board index page "only"?

All I saw under Utility Box setting was On or Off sir. Reenabled till a decision is made.

K! Thanks! Sorry for the confusion.

I'll give it a look-see on Sunday when I have more time to study it.
I haven't been into the admin section since I edited the theme way back when the forum programming got updated.
