What about a shoutbox?  I've seen this of a few other boards, but I'm not sure if's compatiable with this type of board.  It's just a place were people can say Hi and stuff when they see people logged in.

In my old club we all used AIM so this is an AIM solution.  We had a chat room running nearly all the time by not accepting the default chat room name and instead using a pre-agreed (and terribly obvious) name.  All people running AIM who knew the agreed name could then invite themselves to the chat room any time they liked. (You had to add yourself to your buddy list, but that wasn't hard.) Just select themselves and change the chat room invite to the agreed name.  People came and went all through the day, but everybody was capable of getting themselves in and out so nobody got bombarded with invites when they were busy with other things.

I'm actually working on a solution still. :D But in the meantime you can always send private messages through the boards if you want to get someone into chat and notice they're on.

Exciting news on the chat front, my friends! I'm currently working on and beta-testing a chat interface that will allow you to log in to the chatroom with your forum username/password! :)

I'll probably try to finish tweaking it up this weekend, and then we can chat whenever we want! ;)

Anyone who wants to try it out should go here:

http://www.triadweyrs.org/chat/

If you're not logged into the forums when you go, it will ask you to do so!

I'd like to run it for a week or so and see who has problems and what sort of problems they have. And also, what sort of affect it has on the site's bandwidth and resources. :D

If it goes well, we will make it a permenant feature!

So everyone log in so I can get an accurate idea!
