Title: We need a chatroom.
Post by: Swoop on May 02, 2001, 11:33:00 PM

I'm stuck here at work.  It's 6:40am and I'm bored to hell and back.

How bout a web based chat room for those of us unable to fly?

Feel free to set one up.

I'm sure that it doesn't make sense for HTC to use their precious bandwidth on a chatroom that's not part of the game.  That just wouldn't make sense.

Set one up someplace, and point the rest of us at it.  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

A "club" can be setup in Yahoo Clubs, you get a Messenger based web chatroom with it. It's all for the low low price of FREE.

Or for that matter, MSN Messenger. Just get a free hotmail account and download the FREE messenger. Works ok, but I've never used it with alot of users before.

If someone seriously made a chatroom, could there be a link added to the main page somewhere or on the ubb?

Hey Im happy to host it, I've had that server running for a year or so and it gets sporadic usage.  Love to see it in use and plenty of room (100 users).

Pick a time for a gathering...just wandered in and saw NathBDP in there.  So hey, there's one!   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

If it gets used and people wanna use it, fantastic!  Might even accept apps for moderators! hehe

Hey its pretty slick, isnt it?  I see we have 5 or 6 on there now.  Per your suggestions, I've modified the Welcome Screens so people go to the Rooms Tab and select the AcesHigh room.

If you wanna visit the chat room, its....

web:  http://online.checksix.net (http://online.checksix.net)

or via IRC Chat Client (like mIRC)

irc.checksix.net   (port 6667)

All are welcome!
