Good or Bad? - Katz - 12-17-2010

Do you think a scoutbox is a good idea? sure it would take the post count down a bit but it could be for people with like 100 or 200 or even 500 or sumat posts +

What do you mean by scoutbox?

Shoutbox perhaps?


RE: Good or Bad? - Katz - 12-17-2010

yea, shoutbox, was typing in the dark, lol

There's advantages and disadvantages to it, but i'm guessing Omniscient will probably not add it in. Access to it by post count could be a good idea though.


RE: Good or Bad? - Omniscient - 12-18-2010

I'm extremely against shout boxes for forums.

Bad.
They are a useless feature.


RE: Good or Bad? - Fragma - 12-18-2010

Yeh not a good idea. Don't see any point in having one to be honest.

Extreme use of resources?

It attracts activity away from the forum and onto the ChatBox.

Shoutboxes uses a lot of resources, you'll never see one on a large site.
