I see a shout box on many boards, personally i think this would a good addition to our board ?

Won't we lose the perspective about the forum if you install shout box?

Are we here to shout or are we here to help? Two questions, and my 2 cents for the idea.

Well maybe shout is a bit strong !

It would be more of a comunication box, when you enter the forum you can pop in say hello etc :regular_smile:

Well, it seems that i am the only one against the shoutbox, so my words don't count. Go right ahead and install it, but not on the index page please.

The shoutbox needs bandwidth. We are running on a server which hosts other large forums. Our forum goes down daily (I guess) so If we add a shoutbox, then the forum will be 24/7 down!

In the future, we may be able to have one .... and surely not on the home page
