    Default Forum chatroom

    Any chance of getting some sort of chat room associated with the site? Something that is either right in the site, or otherwise? I know the point of a forum is to post on the forum itself, but a chat could be a nice thing to have as well.

    This was messed with for a bit, but no one really seemed interested in it.

    and a trip to the house of pain.

    Hmmm so they had one here? I would like to see a chat located here on the forum. It would be very convenient, especially for planning events, and some good natured ribbing.

    yep, for a while there was one back when pafoa was ran on 1 or 2 servers. now it's ran on 5 or 6 and it's gone. also, there was a photo gallery on the forum for a while.

    Well I would certainly like to see it come back. I think people would certainly use it if it was housed here on the forum.

    I like the photo gallery idea as well.

    The old chat had become more trouble than it was worth according to the powers that be, IIRC, a free for all, no holds barred, open forum, the mods got too many complaints. One of the reasons it was let go.

    It looks like any type of chat would need some type of moderation feature. Perhaps something that would boot a user if enough people flag a comment or flag a person for disruptive/inappropriate behavior.
