Re: New chat feature?

Just something to consider. In the past when someone try to setup a chat for Chief Delphi Forum members it ended up being too small or too large. They were too small when only view visit the place and it never build up the momentum to get it started. They were too big when everyone went in and all you can see is a constant spam of chatter going all over the log.

Consider how it will be if the CD forum only have 1 section. There would be 50 new threads a day under 1 section. It will become hard for people who prefer focused conversations. Would it be possible to setup multiple chat rooms? Have a main lobby, and people can make announcement to all the little chat room when they want to, but give people the abilities to start their own little room for smaller discussions.

But that sounds like too much work. Just something to think about.
