Default how bout a chat room

what do u guys think about setting up a live chatroom so that for those who are online can chat up a storm about any topic or nothing specific? it would also be easier to communicate instantly withone another.

thirdgen.org has a chat room, if you ask anyone on there about it , it's a waste of time . I got on once to hear some idiot want to tell me how great his frickin' Civic was. Imagine that , you get on an F-body website to brag about your "9 second " Civic.

I could see a chat room leading to the downfall of this site. Not a good idea to me.

Just use AIM or yahoo. With the type of info people come here find a chat isn't going to cut it.

No chatroom. We tried that when the site first started and there was a TON of good technical info discussed....but unfortunately lost forever since it was just in a chat room format. With the message board, all threads are saved for others to learn from.

To keep logs of chatroom conversations and to have them be searchable would be unfeasable due to server loads unfortunately, right Tony?

Very wise thinking on the Admins' part.
