newenglandsubarus.com has one as well!! the only problem they ever really have with it is people trying to discuss "technical" questions in the chat box instead of in the forum where everyone can read it. but i third this!

I'd vote for it. I already get paid to hang out in one chat box all day while "working" I also promise to never, ever be serious in said chat box :lol:

I personally think they are annoying, but I'm sure that is only because my computer loads them so slowly! haha I will try to get in on a convo to find out what I am seeing is so 5min ago so what I type makes no sense any more! LoL

I've never been much of a chat-box user, but I could see it being a fun way to just sort of check in. I think it wouldn't be too hard to keep technical discussions in the forums, some websites prominently remind users of this by the chat-boxes.

it has been brought to my attention that the chat box is overtaking the screen on some browsers. mainly phones.

Maybe we could hide the box like on NASIOC and have it accessible for the ones who want to use it

here are screen shots to show what i am talking about...

over taking the screen
http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/ll71/NickANDTina/bb54f4a2.jpg

cant scroll the box on the iphone unless you open up in full chat.
http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/ll71/NickANDTina/e83dd795.jpg

basically rendering the feature ineffective for those using some browsers.

the way i do it if i am using my Ipod touch
is i just open up the full chat feature like you said if i wanna get involved.
If you missed some of the chat and wanna catch up on it.. just read up in the chat box's "Archive" which has the whole thing right there

also to sarah keep in mind you might wanna wipe that thing clean once in awhile i guess from what i heard from nes it kinda takes up bandwidth *shrug*

and someone tell rick morranis fan to type in a known language... my binary skills are a little rusty

Yea, the chatbox will eat up bandwidth, and depending on her hosting company, they might not like that. Especially if it's shared hosting. :p


And hey man, all I'm doing is typing and for some reason it's breaking my text and making it go all weird.

Yea, relax KHAAAAAAAN. It's just a funky looking font and it doesn't break anything. Besides, it was all in good fun. I mean, I wasn't spamming it nonstop, and I only used it... six times? So relax, it was all in good fun that you over reacted to with your threat to ban me. :rolleyes:

I'm still waiting for your answer about the giant testicle decals for my car though. :lol:

Hopefully for a while, the only major addition we made to the site was the chatbox, and apparently it was pegging the CPU on the server host, which they didn't like too much.

If this doesn't fix the issue we'll have to look at a dedicated server which will cost mucho buckos, but we'll see how bad the non-chat version of the site holds up.

ksubi
03-15-2011, 12:11 AM
Meh. I think we can live without it.

xxthat girlxx
03-15-2011, 12:41 AM

Yea, I don't get it. It was renamed to 'unofficial' then deleted. It seemed like a really good way to grow the community and let people keep in contact.

PinkTWRX
03-15-2011, 07:04 PM
There were non members in there and it was a bit out of control. The point was for chat not to post in the fb more than the forums. So it was deleted. If there was a way to keep it more chill and "chatty" then we could keep one with the subiegirls name in it IMO. As it was people were posting there more than here and that's not the goal we're aiming for.
