MLNTeam members wanted this, too; but only one problem: A lot of the time, no mods are on. =(

According to Blade, if we did that, the staff shoutbox would become public.

@Shoots: It's not a chatbox.

Ok. Well, then what is it? It is like a chatbox, right? :P

A shoutbox is a chatbox.

No; it's not instant. =P It has to refresh for every comment.

One other reason I'm hesitant to just hand you a shoutbox, is because it'll take activity away from the actual topics; which won't help the forum at all. ;)

At any rate, it would be a full time job for a mod, and even then bad stuff gets through, I remember the UTTA shout, and Pando's rants...and shudder to think we could ever have something like that happen here..

It is possible to make it so that only members can access it.

The staff shout is used to discuss situations and such, so we wouldn't want everyone to see it.

Geh, I hate those. =P

I agree with the forum thing; it definitely won't be productive.

Then make a different one! And KZ posted a clip of it once, certainly VERY intelligent converstaion going on.
The sarcasm is so strong you can chew on it.

Not possible, Teddy.

And yeah, certainly some interesting stuff. =P

Isn't that basically like posting with quick reply?


Title: Re: Suggggestion
Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on May 04, 2010, 06:30:36 pm
With this shoutbox, kinda, yeah. =P Except it doesn't add to the post count.

Oh, and it refreshes every time you post or want to update it.

The staff don't actually need it since they have the hidden forum...


Title: Re: Suggggestion
Post by: MsRowdyRedhead on May 04, 2010, 07:14:03 pm
The staff knows what the staff needs to keep chaos from the door.

Anyhoo, like Blade said...
Not possible, Teddy.

I suppose it would be another foot in the door for predators...

Post by: MsRowdyRedhead on May 04, 2010, 07:41:21 pm
It is just not workable, the staff would loose our quick response tool in times of issues, and since this is an all ages forum, we would need to have staff modding the shout box 24 hours a day..which just isn't practical.
Thank you so much for understanding, tho.

That's posting using the box under the comments. The box says 'Quick Reply'.

I have a counter offer, try my Desperation topic, venting about your feelings are allowed, with making sure you don't hurt anyone. He did this well, he has a problem and he's worried to say the least, yet he maintaned a good deal of composure.

A shout box, is yelling, they don't work.

Shoutbox isn't yelling. >_> Shoutbox is just another name for a Chatbox.

I see. Thanks.


About shoutbox.....I guess a  lot more SPAM will appear if there was a shoutbox.
