I think they had one for a while, but it sucked up too much bandwidth, or some such thing, and they trashed it. Anyhow, that's what IRC is for. :P

ew, no one uses IRC unless they're looking (trying to be) all professional and look for scrims.

It's not about a 'better chat program'.. we had a shoutbox that was literally like the most popular area of our forums, that's all. Most of us miss it, but we're fine with it not comin'.

well winston and gerry said it already, but no. unless you wana pay for all the bandwidth this one eats up too. if you wana talk, get a mic or add yourselves all to eachothers favourite instant message program.

IRC is by far the better option. Just get a tiny program like pidgin and keep it open all day. Far better than a chat box
