Thread: Would you use a BroncosForums chatroom?

So, Would you use a BroncosForums chatroom?

If we integrate a chat room into BroncosForums.com would you use it? Do you see this is a useful feature or a novely that won't be used?

I voted no tned...the only time I think the chat room at the Freak was ever used was the draft last year.

I voted no too..

I think MB's right and most of the members went back to the thread after a few minutes.

I would use it, but only if MB agrees to post more pics of himself in his jammies

Ummm...probably not.

I know on mania (BM), it was used very little. I think there was a small contingent that used it, but I don't think it was many people. However, I figured I should ask, as it is a fairly easy add-on if it would be used.

I got lost in the chat room on the Freak once. It was cold and lonely.

I would ...

Gamedays in the BM chatroom are the best ... there alot of fun. It's alot easier than a thread ... it just flows smoother IMO. CinnaMunMun called it 'instant gratification' ... could'nt have said it better myself ...

Before I give yes or a no I'm curious how exactly would a chatroom would be different than the message board?

Instantaneous.

I was in the BroncosFreak chat room a few times. Once was with Nut and Slim. I was very uncomfortable.

Why were you uncomfortable? You need to learn to relax and just let things flow.

It's instant ... without 'refreshing' or clicking on the next page ...

It would be a live chat, with users listed down the left side and everything typed scrolling in a single window, real time. Like MSN or Yahoo messenger, but with a group of people, not just two. Here are a few examples:

Here is the BM one (login with your BM account)

Here are two that can be integrated so that you just click a link and you are in the chat with your username, no need for an extra login.

For this demo, just type a name in the username and leave password blank:

For this one, click "guest" and enter just a user name and then login, then cliick on that first chat room.
