I would like to make a suggestion,to see what Admin and Members think.
On other Boards using same IP Board, it is common on the Index Page,to show Members active in Chat.
I think it would be a good idea to have the same here. At least we wouldn't go there, and find no one to chat with.

I would have thought that most new users would find the main forums for themselves.
It may be an idea to move the link "Enter Forums" to the immediate left hand side and enlarge it perhaps.

On the lndex Page,at the bottom where it has Active Members and Guests,under that in a seperate box have "Members active in Chat".
I fully agree with you 'wolfeymole' that the Enter Forums Link, should be on the left hand side,directly above Forums Index in Red Text. thumbup2.gif

There is no way I can do that unfortunately. I have no way of determining from this site side who is in chat.

DSTM, they are one in the same.

IM is different as it is usually between two people. As is the email options.

It is not like a VOIP option though.

Normally you can find me in there between 5-12 PM EST (-5 UTC). If Im not there or away Im probably doing something stupid (like a beer run).

If you go on a beer run, please bring Z some Scotch. J&B will do fine.
