Why don't we start a post where users can enter their AIM screen name? Then you can just add them to your list and you're set.

you can already do that in your UserCP - under "edit profile" you can enter AIM, Yahoo, ICQ, MSN & Skype names for yourself.
when you do, on every post you make - there is a little icon in the upper right for each one that you enter.

Oh I know this, I just meant we could have a sticky post in case someone wanted to just scroll down and find everyone's AIM screen name quickly.

I can probably hack together a page to display that in a decent format.

There needs to be a AIM set chat or something. I know you can make a room, but can you make it so you can get into it anytime? Like have someones computer 'host' the room then others can come and go as they please? :dunno:

There used to be an ICQ chat box thing a few years back I used, it ran on a mIRC channel and was just a java chat. Wasn't anything fancy but hell, we were using a shoutbox to chat....

Yea, we need to find something. I enjoyed being made fun of in the shoutbox :haha: Meeting alot of people through there and what not. O I almost forgot, screwing off at work was even easier :haha:
No 'one' person ruined it for anyone, it's a combination of everything I stated.
You have to realize that with it on the index page, everyone sees it, and the conversations on there sometimes were not exactly what we want x-h2o to be portrayed as.
Then add in the security issues (you could put malicious html in your shouts possibly), extra server load, and especially the fact that the version I was running is not the 'official' one which actually has much higher server load, it just gave me the willies after all the time I spent recovering from the hacking last month.

Well, you've ran this Shoutbox before and had basically the same problems right? I just wondered why you did it again.. Not that i'm complaining. I liked it and even said some bad words on there too. So shame on me also.
Also it might be a bit disturbing for a first timer to the site when the first thing they see is a pics of a dogs A-hole... I do agree it shouldnt be on the front page.
I dont remember anybody posting pics the first time around with the Shoutbox. It is a very cool feature though.
MIRC is such a boring interface.
