The Shoutbox I Suggest Adding Would Provide A Few Features That Would Allow Members To Chat And Check On Forum Updates Easier." Example: My commentary on it is as follows: "The shout box option was available but has been disabled to promote posting (and reward credits tracking) and our Discord messaging. I'll talk it over with the staff and beta testers to see what they think. I don't like to rely on my opinion alone x)" So let me know what you think about starting a forum shoutbox

So all in all its not much of a loss but can become a big gain.

I'd still say that we'll test it though. And when it isnt used, that we remove it again

We also need laurayne to teach us how shoutbox works and use it to it's full potential.

However a Shoutbox is limited because only those visiting the website (in this case, alst.boards.net) can see the messages. Anyone can type in it, and it can be read by anyone.

Actually, It Isn't As Limited As You May Think. For Example, On That Site I Used As An Example. Not Everyone Could Us It. Rules For Using The Shoutbox Were Advertised As Follows... How do I use the shoutbox? (As Posted By That Forum's Moderator calmchaos) There are multiple ways to acquire shoutbox privileges. They are as follows: Create at least 300 posts. Acquire at least 75 likes. Donate enough money to acquire the "Backer" title. Be active in the community for at least six months. Be consistently active in testing the game for no less than two months. If you stick around for a while, you will undoubtedly complete one of these requirements before you know it. As Well, The Forum Features A "Popout" View And A "Full Page" View, To Help In Using It. I Am Currently Trying To Get Info From calmchaos On How To Enable And Set Up Features For The Shoutbox For Use In A Forum Such As Ours.

I've taken a look at it but the TaigaChat Shoutbox seems to be an add-on for the XenForo forum software.. (on top of that it sorta costs a pretty penny..) But.. this forum doesn't use that software.. I've looked it up and apparently it uses a proprietary software called Proboards v5.. But.. I'll take your advice and add in the default shoutbox and see what we can do from there!
