have not discussed it otherwise... Actually, we would need about 4-5 chatrooms... those who post regularly are nowhere near those who follow along...gotta think about "noise:signal" ratio...
not saying it shouldn't be done, not at all--am merely pointing out that this is *not* a small board, where chat can be efficient...
make sense?

I *think* that's something a former member was working on, half-heartedly... don't know that it ever worked well, and that's the thing about chat--it really, really needs to be lean and mean...

I have visited another site...won't say where..but they have a chat during trading hours and everyone goes into chat instead of posting on the threads...but it is probably only about 10-20 people in it at a time...I found that hard enough to follow...and then it took away from the "posting" on the threads...which was unfortunate...because alot of info gets "lost" in the chats...

What about some kind of "shout" box or somehthing like that...Up in the top corner...or in the bottom...like a scrolling ticker type thing? Would that be "easier" than a chat room?
