To Chat or not to Chat?

Post by Count Henri » Wed Sep 18, 2002 11:46 pm

Well we've tried a few forms of Chat on the WOK site with limited success. However the phpBB allows what looks like a good chat mod to be installed. This *should not* cause any of the server load problems associated with earlier efforts.

Before I do this though is there any real use for it? Can a large enough group of us get together regularly to make it worthwhile? Does anyone want to hear Dameon go on about Luck in real time?

Your thoughts welcome...

In case you don't know.

Austrian and German are different.

Look at English for example: There's Pommy English, Yank English, Aussie English , Canadian English etc etc

NEVER call us Austrians Germans ! Were not even the "little brother" as they like to put and see it.
We tend to say that
AUSTRIANS ARE THE BETTER GERMANS

In fact we have a strong northern way of living (discipline, rules etc. if you know what I mean) still we have also the southern influences in us (Italy is near) so we now how to party hardy and how to live a good life.

Im really surprised BR remembers all this stuff while my memory seems to fail me so often.... I speak fluent french, yes, because I was in a french school.

But dont expect a french manual for WOK5, nooooooo..... :wink:

OK I've installed the chat mod now. It is accessed from the bottom of the front forum page. You cant miss it.

It still needs to be edited a little to match the WOK colour scheme but thats a pain of a job & I'll save it until we know it works & everyone is happy with it.

Enjoy...

Well, I've logged in too, and haven't found it useful yet. :oops: I'm not one to give up so easily though.
