Dear All,
AS you've probably noticed not much GS users use their PM's as they're to clogged up and take ages to load... Well what about a facbook style chat box.. But for some people that dont want to be asked questions all the time... You can set your status to busy, Customstatus, Go invisible, Opt out and more! :)
Well I do have one suggestion for GS: Comet Chat..
See the demo here: http://www.phpchatsoftware.com/vanilla/

Why? Its got video chat, text chat, voice chat, screen sharing, you can even block people temporarily from chatting to you:

Its completely customizable: I know some users didn't want a who's online box back because they were being bothered too much when they were online, well with this you can simply set your status to invisible so people can't see you but you can see them online and start up a chat with them.... THIS COULD ALSO BE THE FUTURE LOCATION OF @MYNAMEISACE 'S WEBINAR IF GS AND HIM WANTED THAT!
This would also allow members to help each other even more by sharing they're screen! :)

What it looks like:

The chat box:

PLEASE GIVE ME YOUR OPINIONS, COMMENT, POST, TRY IT OUT.... IF SOME GS HEAD CHEFS COULD GIVE FEEDBACK ON THIS IT WOULD BE GREAT, AS ALWAYS,
THANKS FOR READING!

    Any comments or opinions?
  • David_GryphonsRealmDavid_GryphonsRealm Member Posts: 459
    I was just thinking about something like this !! I REALLY hope they look into it. I've noticed that the "profile walls" have been "down" since I joined. I was wondering what that was ( I figured it was like a FB wall or something ) but this chat thing would be IDEAL in my opinion !! Hope it works out !!
  • LeonardDeveloperLeonardDeveloper Member Posts: 4,630
    Ya it would be like an integrate "SaladBook"
    Thanks for appreciating my suggestion! :)
  • David_GryphonsRealmDavid_GryphonsRealm Member Posts: 459
    hahahaaa SALADBOOK !! thats brilliant !! lolz. Imagine if they advertised it like that !! "In Gamesalad's new update to the forum, we have decided to add SaladBook" hahah :)
  • LeonardDeveloperLeonardDeveloper Member Posts: 4,630

  • LeonardDeveloperLeonardDeveloper Member Posts: 4,630
    Does anyone else like this idea?
  • LeonardDeveloperLeonardDeveloper Member Posts: 4,630
    @rks
    Thanks!, Im trying to get enough people to "Like" this idea so GS will implement it... Not for certain yet though! :P

    Thats 5 Poeple "Like" This idea now
  • beefy_clyrobeefy_clyro Member Posts: 5,394
    Would be horrible in my opinion unless theres an option to opt-out. Think of people like TSB who doesn't even want the whose online back as he gets email after email saying i know you're online ....
    If it showed him in chat, every man and his dog would be instant messaging him! Crazy!
  • LeonardDeveloperLeonardDeveloper Member Posts: 4,630
    @beefy_clyro
    If you read my post you would have read "You can go invisible or opt out!"
  • JamieOneilJamieOneil Member Posts: 877
    Now, i LOVE this idea!
    I hope GS do look into it.
    Its great that you can go invisible or opt out.

    Im 100% with this!
  • beefy_clyrobeefy_clyro Member Posts: 5,394
    @LeonardDeveloper Ya sorry i couldn't be bothered to read the full post, its another lets change this and that thread by yourself.
    My next concern would be that there will be no public content, someone would come online, see xyz is online and ask there question in chat rather than have a thread which others can see and use for help.
    The forums work well enough, i'd rather they keep focusing on the creator personally.

    Is this ment to be an insult?, I'm pretty sure it's not! :) just checking! :)
    --
    "someone would come online see xyz is online and ask them the question rather the having everyone see it and help others"
    You can already do that through PM's so..... That doesn't make much sense.. Although....
    Keep on posting! :)
  • beefy_clyrobeefy_clyro Member Posts: 5,394
    Oh no not an insult, it just is what it is. You've made a few of these threads now and they never implement or even comment on them, i saw you were suggesting something and just skipped to the actual product and gave my views.
    As for people already being able to do what i've said in PM's ... NO way! As you pointed PM's are horrible on here and not many use them or check them often enough, if you need help, you wouldn't run the risk of waiting from a response to a PM you don't know has even been checked ... Instant messenger people would be all over that as they'll see it as they're likelier to get a quicker response

    People are more likely to respond to a thread anyway!
    :)
  • LeonardDeveloperLeonardDeveloper Member Posts: 4,630
    Bump! What d you guys think!?
  • LeonardDeveloperLeonardDeveloper Member Posts: 4,630
    edited January 2012
    I personally think this would be a good idea especially because you can opt out, I'm just waiting for the idea to get noticed! :)">
