well this has been discussed several times.. I dont think i'll ever put up a live chat here anytime.. it kills the whole spirit and concept of the community and the forums
the forums are taking off finally (more than 200 messages posted daily !! that's not slow!).
Again, i understand somewhere your point, but i dont think people wait that long.. see how many messages are new each time you come back to the site! it's pretty good. I can hardly read all the posts on the site, and I am here many hours per day.
Plus the site will grow as time goes, and as regular posters join
Ahh by the way: within 1 month (hopefully), this site will feature a BUDDY LIST, and an INSTANT MESSAGE panel !!
is this cool? it will fill the gap some of you see.
Thanks for your input
