Chat bar!!!

busted · 07-23-2009, 05:41 AM

What about a chat bar on the bottom right like there is on facebook for example.

There on quite a few websites now and i've heard that if you know what your doing its very easy to make. Anyway just an idea

That would be pretty cool, so you could chat and browse the forums at the same time.
Though I do, do that anyway with tabs, GOOGLE CHROME!
Up, up and away.

i like that idea a lot lol

LittleRayRay · 07-23-2009, 06:29 AM

me too!!!

That would.be.awesome.

So on T or D if people dont like thinking they can just give a topic so you could search for it, and then do that dare.

swweeettt

YouTube did this with its friend feature. It's completely stupid, hardly anyone uses it and it's so annoying. If getDare ever went down this route, there'd best be an option to turn it off.

I don't understand why people can't have the chat minimized or open in a new tab?

Youtube isn't a friend site. People have friends here,

and, dude..... think... I'd be awesome!! Mwa ha ha.

I always mess up my tab. It goes down to the bottom of my screen and i cant get it back up, im usein chrome. lol.

YouTube is a video sharing website. So it doesn't need a chat feature.
getDare is a Truth or Dare forum (ultimately). It has an adequate chat feature.

I go on YouTube and that bar at the bottom always pisses me off because it's so pointless. I can see how people may use it, but it's still not needed. Hence why I said, if getDare did go down this route, I'd hope there would be an option to turn it off/get rid.

That's the way I see it anyway.

In my experience, my computer goes really slow when my Facebook bar is active. So I guess it's different for different people.

Also, I just don't want getDare becoming like every other site. Facebook started with the bar, then MySpace copied it, and then YouTube copied it. It's just really naff.

busted · 07-23-2009, 07:43 AM

lol someone had to hate my idea lmfao at least most people like the idea for once.

And the chat isnt perfect there has been tons of problems with it and there are still some. i even remember depp once saying there had been so many problems with it he was considering making his own one.

jim1984 · 07-23-2009, 08:49 AM

just a thought. but what i usually do is open the chatroom in a seperate tab. therefore i can browse, then switch to chat as needed... nice idea though. facebook chat is very smooth to use

Coyote · 07-23-2009, 11:13 AM

I like this idea. my old computer used to be too slow to run both at the same time. This would good to have in the future

busted · 07-24-2009, 03:13 AM

The tab thing dosn't really work if you have an old slow computer because if you change the tabs around a bit to quickly the coputer freezes or your borwser shuts down and re-opns on your home page.

I'm with Koq on this. If we're going to get this feature, there better be an option to turn it off. Personally, I'd rather we didn't, because Facebook chat is damn stupid.

For all of you with slow computers... Well, that's not anyone else's propblem but your own really. I dont' see why you can't check all new posts, then go on chat and then check the posts again when you log off chat.

I've used Facebook chat to talk with a total of 3 people, all 3 of which are those who either don't use MSN, or who are only on to check facebook, see I'm on, and decide to reply to me there instead of in the message I sent. That's it.

Allt his would do is split the chat up because we couldn't have a full chat like we do at the moment in this "facebook chat" way, so people who actually wish to chat will still need to go in the main one, and eventually the chat at the bottom will be used for a few people to perhaps talk when they can't be bothered to go to the main chat, or (mainly) for fakes and pervs to contact the girls on the board hoping to get their rocks off (ignoring the fact that 99% of the time the "girl" that responds is another bloke doing the same damned thing anyway).

So ultimately, utterly pointless idea, and when actually looking into the workings of it, a ridiculous one at that.

Well to fix that you could only chat with people you are buddys with and that way pervs don't come a acroos

Overall a great idea I would like to see this happen! But otheres don't so go figure
