Just a heads up, at some point over the next couple of weeks the forum will be updated to v5, this means there could be a little downtime and limited functionality while we configure all the customisations we need

i read somewhere it has a shoutbox, i wonder if its good enough to replace chatango and if it requires flash this site uses it: www.rby2k10.proboards.com/thread/1458/proboards-v5looking around I think I'd vote for swapping the chatango chatbox for this, it dont look like it uses flash. which is awesome in general, it seems to log you in with your forum credentials which is also a nice plus, and on top of all that you'd probably be able to block it for non members/ block it until xx psot count is reached, which is useless right now but could definately be useful in the future if this forum gets busy.. and best of all... ITS NOT CHAT-FUCKING-TANGO lol |

WOW, great update! Thank you DWSK.
Edit: Is everything ok with spoilers? Their names are not shown and they do not open every time.

Forums looking pretty nice! Though i have a couple of suggestions, first keep the chatbox at the bottom, it just doesnt look right at the top, and second i really miss separators betwen post/threads, with the new design everything is floating in a big blue box. Edit: Just noticed karma is gone  |

looks like they completely removed karma, didn't even make it an option, some odd choices in this update
looks like there may be a plugin so i'll give that a try, annoying if it means the old stats have been lost in the transition
edit: i've added a plugin for it, seems a little slow at loading but right now it seems to be the only option

We were just talking about chatango with Asskickulater because it's not to his taste apparently.
I suggest to try an IRC chatbox, I know there are ways to have a box on a website (For example : Mibbit.com )

i'll give mibbit a look when i get a chance
edit: mibbit looks quite limited in its free version, banner ads, limited visual customisation and restricted controls, if anyones got any alternatives feel free to suggest

webchat.freenode.net/On the upper left (very little qIRC logo) you have a feature to add a webchat to a website, based on an <iframe> tag
