What if the KR website had its own chatroom for members... like people that have signed up for the fourms and blah blah blah..

But yeah a chatroom. So people like me that cant play the game right now =/ can talk to who ever decides to get on.

Also for the fact that everyone knows the server online gets slow and theres nothing better to do.. so you just get on the chatroom.

Just a suggestion =/ lol

Unfortunely, I doubt it will happen. Reason being few people will actually bother having a "chatroom" page up. Even if you put it in the forum, it would reload every time you browse. Unless you remake the web-site in such a way when you click on the "chatroom" link, the site gets "remade" and you can see the chat in one part, and the forum in another (basicly you are viewing 2 pages in one)

I'm up for the idea though :D

My forum has a chatroom on the bottom of the forum, it only shows for members, you can have admins on it, and it only shows on the main directory, not at the bottom of every single page, it's very nice to use. I think it would be helpful for KR

edit : and you can have it on a window or tab of it's own too lol

The issue with those chatrooms is it puts increased pressure on the web-server as the page constantly refreshes each time a message is sent and recieved. I am fairly sure that our host will not allow chatrooms as it will likely cause an impact on the server load.

I could however enquire about this, as it is possible that it could be permitted. However, if I remember last time we looked into doing this, there wasn't much interest and unfortunatley i'm not able to pay out for something that we will possibly not use.

I will work on writing a beta PHPBB solid state chat system. This system works on the server alone. So, yea, when you browse each page, yeah it will have to reload it BUT it will always be the same chat room each time with a set cache. I.e. It will reload but all the chat will be saved for a short amount of time. Best part about this kind of application is that its basically no bigger than the text entry box you write in to reply to forum threads :D

Ight, I just nerded that up wicked bad.

HA! BAM! I found a code for exactly this. It reloads from off-site every page you navigate to. I couldn't write anything cause.. well.. I just don't have the time between BMX and band practice.

We just need to find a spot on site to put it.. When thinking for a spot, keep in mind, it has to be written into every page.. So, I'm thinking JUST the home page and possibly the forum index page. Not every forum page cause that would be ridiculous to keep up to date with.

This is teh code :
Code: Select all
<object width="420" height="360" id="obj_1245091687312"><param name="movie" value="http://knightsreborn.chatango.com/group"/><param name="wmode" value="transparent"/><param name="AllowScriptAccess" VALUE="always"/><param name="AllowNetworking" VALUE="all"/><param name="AllowFullScreen" VALUE="true"/><param name="flashvars" value="cid=1245091687312&b=100&c=666666&d=666666&g=333333&j=333333&k=FFFFFF&l=CCCCCC&m=FFFFFF&s=1&w=0"/><embed id="emb_1245091687312" src="http://knightsreborn.chatango.com/group" width="420" height="360" wmode="transparent" allowScriptAccess="always" allowNetworking="all" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowFullScreen="true" flashvars="cid=1245091687312&b=100&c=666666&d=666666&g=333333&j=333333&k=FFFFFF&l=CCCCCC&m=FFFFFF&s=1&w=0"></embed></object><br>[ <a href="http://knightsreborn.chatango.com/clonegroup?ts=1245091687312">Copy this</a> | <a href="http://chatango.com/creategroup?ts=1245091687312">Start New</a> | <a href="http://knightsreborn.chatango.com">Full Size</a> ]

This is a link to the chat program OFF SITE. So, by clicking the following link, you will open the chat embed in another window. This is what the embedment will look like.. only... 420x360 pixles instead of the whole window. Try it out. See what ya think. You dont have to become a member but if we do use this, you might want to consider it so you dont have to make up an alias every time.
