Belladonna Posted December 30, 2005 Posted December 30, 2005 For a few months we've had a 'Live Chat' option in the forums. Since it costs around $8.00 a month to have it running, unless a bunch of people say otherwise I'm going to pull the plug on it. I rarely see anyone using it, but maybe I'm just not around at the right times. So if you want to keep the chat going, please post here within the next couple days as the bill is due again soon. Thanks! Quote
Phantizen Posted December 31, 2005 Posted December 31, 2005 When I saw this post, my first reaction was, "Oh no, we are about to lose a freebie!" *Ahem* An underutilized feature of the forums. Naturally, I clicked on it immediately and that's when I realized... I run Firefox WITHOUT the Java plugin. (adware free ever since btw) Live chat won't run for me. So... buh-bye live chat. That is my take on it. Quote

{GD}Independent Posted December 31, 2005 Posted December 31, 2005 I checked in to the chat room several times when you first installed it, and never saw anyone in there. There are never more than 2 or 3 people in the forum at the same time as me, anyway. I say, thanks for the thought, but go ahead and give it the axe! Quote
DeathValleyGirl Posted December 31, 2005 Posted December 31, 2005 I have never used it, but I am also new Quote
Natter Posted December 31, 2005 Posted December 31, 2005 (edited) Clicked on it sometimes......empty Think the game or MSN are our chatrooms Edited December 31, 2005 by {SFI}Natter Quote
ONYX Posted December 31, 2005 Posted December 31, 2005 (edited) <------the same, always empty..........its a shame to loose it, but its not worth paying $8 for. Edited December 31, 2005 by {SFI} ONYX Quote
Spacko Posted December 31, 2005 Posted December 31, 2005 Caip and Spacko say lose it, but thanks anyway. It ain't being used. Quote
Phantizen Posted December 31, 2005 Posted December 31, 2005 in Firefox 1.5 chat runs just fine FYI But it requires the Java runtime module to work, doesn't it? I figured the reason why it won't work in my Firefox is because I won't install the Java plugin for Firefox. Either way, thanks for the heads up! I am updating to the latest version of Firefox now!

Factor Posted January 3, 2006 Posted January 3, 2006 yah dump it... ive gone in there a few times, and never once seen sum1 else in there... ppl come to the forums to post...not to chat in that thingy... they chat in nolf, or on msn... it was a nice idea though...srry for the $8 loss for a few months Quote
Belgaron Posted January 3, 2006 Posted January 3, 2006 I've used it only once...........................Never seems to be anyone in there. I'd go the money saving route. Quote
Belladonna Posted January 3, 2006 Author Posted January 3, 2006 Oh well, it never hurts to try new things, right? The chat has been cancelled and will stop being available later in the month. Teamspeak and MSN seem to be the way to go. Thanks for all the feedback. Quote
