Chit Chat

[Moka]

Hello! Moderators have been noticing an increase in the amount of general "chit chat" in forum topics. This can be harmful to forums and bloat the forum with unnecessary discussion. In an attempt to reduce this, we're going to move the chatroom to the index page of the forum. Please use it instead of creating topics that are borderline spam.

We hope this will streamline the forum a little more and keep posts that are borderline spam in the chatroom.

We've also opened the chatroom up to members who have an approved post in the forums.

Just a tip: if you can, make it smaller. It's already annoying to try and see what is new on MLK only to have to scroll down right away just to see the actual forum. But I like the idea of the chatbox, Moka!

I remember KK giving me a hard time over saying that this will never be implemented...

LOL Moka, it needs to be smaller if at all possible.

[Moka]

I know, geez. Give me a second.

[DGFone]

Much better, Moka! Nice job!

Edit: chatbox doesn't work. Works now

[Azdgari]

Very clever. Well done!

I don't understand what's happen? all that's happen for me is some writing is starting to fade out. I don't see anything

[Arani]

there's supposed to be a chatbox at the top of the screen on the index page. =/ like the chatroom.

On the other hand... because the chatbox did in fact bring all the spam all to the main page, is there a way to implement some sort of 'hide' button, where if you want, you can make the chabox disappear or reappear? When the spam was all in people's topics, it was easy to avoid - you simply don't go there. Now the spam is impossible to avoid.
