Where has Envolve chat gone?

[Diari Mahmoud]

It no longer appears, where has it gone?

[Supreme Warrior]

im sure it has to do with Trolls being reported, oh well , no big loss, always have tinychat

[Diari Mahmoud]

Ah well, it was fun for the time being..

[Mohit]

why it happened ?

[Digifiend]

Personally I'm glad it's gone, it really slowed the forum, and anything else I happen to have running, down.

[SsJVasto]

Lol, kinda good news... I spent a lot of time chatting at work instead of working...

[Tanthias]

Actually it has to do with the poll as well.

If a new poll created it might have the different results.

I liked how it totally munched system resources for no apparent reason.

Actually we can't compare it with Skype.

Perhaps. To be honest though, it (chat, not a new poll) just seems like more trouble than it's worth. And I still rather not force the other staffers to do even more work, as they would in order to moderate the chat (although that in itself could pose a problem. I won't go into details, but the others likely know what I mean.), and if you combine that with all the other negatives (even if you don't, actually), I still think they outweigh the fewer positives.

Now, i understand the negatives of it(chat).

Wasn't there an IRC channel a couple years back? On FreeNode? If not, we should at least get an IRC server...

[Su-Sa]

I've Firefox and fairly plentiful system resources, so I never really noticed the chat's burden until I'd run some emulator or some graphics intensive game with this open...

seems Knightshades idea wasn't such a great idea
