I will talk to Arilou about. Since he is on vacation, it probably won't happen until next week.

Compguy, just hack the ID webside like TaZ and Code did, no need to wait.

Tank, can this be put on Armagetronad.net as well? I like this.

Not to be a picky jerk, but when you post code like this it is better to use the "code" button.

Code: Select all

Makes it a little more readable and easier to cut/paste.

Please… no ugly flash chat rooms, especially on this site. The quality of chat is also very low. :/

Agreed. Let's face it, clans are tolerated here. But this site caters to a lot more players than clan members. Also, it would slow the site down, please nooooooooo! A thing like this is meant for clans to do with each other.

I agree. We already have a quite sophisticated messaging system that's checked quite regularly, in addition to our wonderful [url=irc://irc.freenode.net/armagetronad]live chat[/url] as well. Both of which do more or less the same thing without using flash. Or horrible colors.

All those chat plugin things crash my browser. Looks like I won't be visiting any other arma forums besides this one...

You can put the chat client on a different subsite and have a link to it on the mainpage.

I agree that IRC is sufficient. However, lots of the Americans that play this game are used to chatboxes like this as the best solution and only thing they care about. It's what they are used to from clans in other games. Additionally, many of them just are getting introduced to IRC because of the Pickup channel. I am personally not really a fan of the darned things. I am a fan of what kind of commucation this will allow for those clans that choose to use it. When the Ww forums were very active, the chatbox had almost as much activity as the forums. This is a far better solution.

what if we created an #armagetron.clans channel on freenode and someone coded a simple way to make an irc web client on the forum sites, so people can easily join from their clan site or favorite irc client?


It wouldn't be any more work for the clans who wanna have it on their site,
and it'd be more convenient for people who use irc already.

You can implement this IRC client as an iframe into your website.
