Default Shoutbox or not?
As the title says should we have a Shoutbox enabled?

My personal opinion is no as they seem to drag traffic away from the actual forums themselves


But i may be swayed if the members want one :?:

Lo Guys

Its a tough one this, as like you say having a shoutbox can draw people away from the actual forums, but then again sometimes it can help if the likes of IRC goes down.

I'm with the quick reply box! The shoutbox is ok, when you just want to post something.... nonetheless you can always put a post up or go into IRC.
Oh yeah, another no!
