Ok is it possible to have a chat with chatrooms on this forum.. it seems like a lot of PMs etc etc.. how awesome would it be to have a chat applet on here!

Well, to be honest, I think a chat function would kind of take away from the forum. Only because great conversations would be missed. For example, DIY's, hot new items, deals. They would probably be conversed better on the Forum through it's current setup. I think people would miss out you know. Or at least, I would....

doubtful.. DIY etc. can't be properly displayed on a chat neither do sales etc. people want longtime visibility for that so chat wouldn't even be an option for that

what I meant was, for example, if this conversation was on a chat, nobody would know about it but us. I didn't mean we would post pics on the chat but just simple a walk through could be valuable. Maybe it's just me....
