It has come up before, and has come up again.

So thought would just ask by way of a poll, how many of us would or would not use a Shoutbox on the forum.

Comments are sure welcome as well ..

I'm neutral, as I would not use it, except for extreme periods of idleness, which I have less and less.

Might be fun to chatt once in a while. Especially if we had a problem. Rather than posting & waiting several days for some replies.

This is the first thing that crossed my mind too.

Ok... Looks like the poll reflects more interest in giving it a whirl than not..

Will get it set up asap.

Would this be an open chat board where several people converse or just between two people?
