Any Last Tries For Fac Chat, Denis?

I know I've done a few topics about the chat, but are you going to do any last tries at all? I'm thinking that the last time it didn't work well was probably because you didn't make the announcement on the front page. That's usually where most users are, like how I used to be before it was taken away, and I switched to the forums. The announcement on the forums for the forumers that mainly stay in this section. An announcement on the front/main site page would be a good idea, if you try the chat again. You can put people in charge stiil of the chatroom, along with a bot. It was a good place to hang for a lot of members to do live chat, along with having a room for the rpers.

So, are you going to try one last time? I'm expecting that I'll hear from the mods here before Denis answers, along with some FAC members. Say yes or no also if you want there to be a chatroom again, members or mods or whatever, rather than Sanoshi's drawing board chat.

Chat was abandoned a long while back due to too many complaints of certain members.

Trust me, I've tried persuading Denis into it but he doesn't seem willing. Though I am, he doesn't see how it could benefit.

I thought it had to do with a few programming problems. I know it was abandoned a while back, but I liked it quite a bit, and I'm sure members like you and others did as well. (I know you're a site helper, but I was just being technical.)

For the second part of your statement, it could mean finding problems easier for the members, if any, along with being quicker. I could say fee, but members wouldn't like it. Well, maybe more publicity for FAC. Have you mentioned that?

Every possibility has been overlooked and every pro weighed against the con.

Perhaps when there's larger demand for one, it may be implemented. When the new forums are on and the new look website is fully operational. There's alot of construction to be done still, so keep your eyes out.

I'm sure Denis appreciates you thinking of FAC's business but a chat room hadn't worked well at all in the past.

...Technical problems... no.. to be honest, I think Denis blames me and a few others. We would just cause trouble and mess around, taking Op status and kick-banning everyone and generally being asses. Though I swore I wouldn't do it/let it do happen in the past, the idea has simply set sail.

Like I said, though. Maybe in future.

And, lol yeah Brian, image boards... I don't think the extensive image board feature will be introduced any time soon : (

I think Denis is more interested in an Oekaki chat board page, allowing members to draw and chat at the same time...

Time will tell.
