A long long time ago in a galaxy not so far away the Luftwaffe Experten Board was some what like a live chat just via email vs instant message. When the format changed I lost interest untiI stumbled upon this wonderful board. Very interested here.

Nor from this one. I've been "making live chat" all day, and it's the last thing I want to do when I get back home to my computer.

Good heavens, I don't think I believe this conversation....... :rolleyes: Must be time for a ---> :drinkers:

Live chat is good way to fast communicate with people. I did it many times, last night I chat with one former Skyraider pilot, flew in USN. But installing of chat is more technical question, first at all did the server could allow that.

Cheers :)

Maybe I'm being pessimistic here, but with the way threads on WIX often quickly degenerate from actual discussions to personal attacks and insults, a live chat might be a really bad idea.

Chats don't survive archival...

Threads contribute to a common knowledge base...

Most excellent point. Perhaps chat as another avenue, not a replacement.

Perhaps we should hold the meat servo responsible and not the application. If we all just do what our mother's taught us it will be a good thing in my opinion.
