    I think it'd be pretty cool.

    And because I like ***OFFICIAL*** threads.

    Edit: I tried capping out the title...and it came all small caps. Please fix that bug!
    That's how winners play; we convince the other guy he's making all the right moves.

    himself fucker.
    We had a chat room that wasn't really used and nowhere near as popular as IRC.

    He's not asking for a chatroom, though, he's asking for facebook-style-chat.

    if there is a mod already for this, it's possible. do other vb forums have something like this?

    I'm not sure about other VB forums, but I know chess.com has this kind of chat which is powered by Meebo.

    I think this would make FTR a tighter-knit community which, in my belief, is the great selling point of FTR versus a bigger poker site such as 2+2.

    Sounds like it could be a fun little addon if it isn't too much work, it's on the drawing board once these stupid refresh bugs are worked out.

    problem w/ this if it's facebook style chat will be that it's only 1v1 conversations. I think msn/aim/skype/whatever is fine for that purpose. If it does group discussion then awesome and +1 to the petition.

    Pretty much this.

    All I'm going to use facebook style chat for is telling boog that he's gay, and I can just as easily do that on IRC. ...Or Facebook chat, for that matter.

    But how will I tell people like Bigred and such that THEY'RE gay?

    It's a pain in the ass to get someone's AIM just to tell them they're gay.

    ya i think it would have to be a group chat thing, and idk how we would incorporate vbulletin logins and all that jazz unless there is a vb plugin for it
