Hey guys how about a chat box located on the top of the main page, I belong to a different car forum that had one and it was really nice!

 

I can have one of the mods from my other forum make suggestions if you would like. It worked vary well.

 

PITA, noobs post their questions in it instead of starting a thread in the correct section and in 3 months when the new wears off nobody uses it anymore. This site has enough bugs and loads slow enough without adding more.

 

yea,the new guys that cant follow forum directions will get on there with "my car wont start,i put gas in it?" and it'd would turn into nothing but troubleshooting with a brick wall. lol

Now,what would work is put a minimum post count until you are allowed to enter. say 100? that way us regulars can talk etc.

edit : oh and have it hidden for people that has less then 100. That way once you get 500 then "ding" a chat room link on the homepage that way we wont have 10 threads a week with "cant get in chat room?"

 

Newer members don't know that we had it at one time and got rid of it for various reasons. Don't want it back.
