This place is big enough, that I have SERIOUSLY been wondering, WHY, do we not have some sort of chat room? Maybe Java based?
Like, certain rooms, for certain topics/sub-forums?

It's just my opinion but, I really think it could be beneficial as whole.
Flame me if you want, it's just a question, and something I think we should consider.

EMC3000GT, Pwee.... you guys reading this? lol

It would easily work. The problem is that the owner doesn't give 2 fucks about this place. Just look at the garage...i mean srsly, wtf?

If I remember correctly this Forum software doesn't support Chat. Start a new poll and make it should be change to V Bulletin.

I've brought this thought up and its never transpired into anything. Search "chat box"

Er... Maybe I am just too smart for you guys, but why doesnt someone else pay for the hosting off a chat and link to it? >.> I mean you can get a spot on godaddy.com for like ~$10 a year. lol

You know....... that is a good idea.
If you could do something like that on godaddy.com for that price, hell, I would pay for it myself.
I will look into it.

You just need a domain name with like a couple gigs of webspace (which comes free with a domain name) and they have a free chat service avalable you cna use if you know a little bit of html. I know a good bit of html, so if someone pays for it, I would be glad to set it up for them.

UPDATE

I guess things are moving ahead with a chat format.
I registered with godaddy.com for the domain: mitshubishi-forums-chat.com about an hour ago.
Jonbonazza is going to be setting up the site for chat. So, hopefully we will have something up and running soon.
WOO HOO! And yes, moderators amd admins will have da power. :)

Voila.

I am also working on adding making a directory for all the FAQs and pinned topics and other importnat stuff on the frontpage.

I wanted to make the website from scratch, but I really liked the functions of this chat and free chats are hard to come by, so I caved in and used the Joomla CMS (Content manager system).


Also, ignore the login at the bottom left. It currently doesnt work unless I create the account manually. I am working on that, but you don't need an account to access the chat so... Also, All admins of this forum, along with calin pm me with your desired username, password, and email.

Thank you.
