Great idea
Not a good idea
Doesnt matter to me
IBF Instant messenger I thought may be Admin should integrate an instant messenger with this forum . Which allows us to im with select users (a friend's list maybe) .... available only to registered users
->It will reduce spam discussion posts
->Encourage people to register
->increase rapport between active members ,thus encouraging more users to become active and will help in increasing IBF's community size
opinions invited
Pls vote in the poll
Nice thought!!
A chat box would cut down most of the hi, hello, good morning, good night spam.
Yeah, somewhat similiar to facebook maybe, like to integrate with the page!
yes, i agree. Has'nt this been suggested over and over again, that , we need a shoutbox. Everyone's already in favour of this, only that admin has to approve it.
how about a small guestbook??
Yes it will be nice idea
whats that for ?Originally Posted by mickey
small guestbook where people can chat..
We dont want ppl to stop posting in our threads and move over completely to some other form of communication
A facebook style im
->Will be easy to access (may be at the bottom) like FB itself ..... while u can still browse a thread
->allow you access to only a select no of friends (based on invites maybe)
so you still keep posting articles
->be really quick ...not having to wait foe a page to refresh everytime to see a reply
Yes, thats what i suggested!!
i think includnig a facebook kinda script will bring more hard to the servers, better would be something like guest/shoutbox.
i seriously doubt that ...... look at the live update feature
Jave is the answer but I am not "that" good at java but I will give it my best shot and see how it goes...
another reason for having this adminji
http://www.indiabroadband.net/sugges...ction-ibf.html (Vote: would you like to have a programming section in IBF ?)
Dont we have something like polldaddy for ims for independent sites/forums ?
dont play with the servers...first try a small step than take a leap..
And server resources are not a matter of concern... anything to keep you lot happy
An auto refresh sort of shout box that you might have seen before on the massive forum I used to rum "back untill 2005" is a resource killer and will be too heavy on those who have a limited bandwidth connection...
By the way how many of you are from the "old" forum? do you remember the shout box we used to have there?
i came in jan...
but i dont think shoutboxes take a big server head, is it??maybe...
actually i am kinda concernt of our dear posts,,
kinda enthusiastic, are our posts backed up properly Ad??
maybe we can even have a small toolbar or an applet that the user downloads .... a mini IBF messenger that integrates into the web browser ... would it make it easier ? ... uses the same user name and password
is the Ad ready for doing this???or lazy?? Ad??Ad??
cant understand
ad = admin
Don't worry about the posts... the forum is backed up regularly and the backups stored at "three" different places..
And if tomorrow I die in an accident ... this forum would still keep running and be taken care ofprovided the internet still exists..
:stuart:
I think the suggestion is good but still I think forum can loss their main focus also.
