    It's a possibility, don't think it has been raised before.

    We did have an IRC channel previously, which I think would provide a better option though.

    Re: a tip for hexus forums

    I think it was discussed before, and the idea rejected. But I could be misremembering, or it could have been on another forum.

    Personally, I think the whole point of a forum is to post, not to "chat" and that it would likely detract from the forum. And, there ere are plenty of ways to chat without doing it on a forum.

    But it's not my decision.

    I might pop on later when the little one is asleep for a brief stint.

    Pages and pages of txt spk - no thanks.

    IRC works fine.

    I like the use of the term 'lurk' there I could just see the chatbox being an open goal for the spamers though TBH.
    Kalniel: "Nice review Tarinder - would it be possible to get a picture of the case when the components are installed (with the side off obviously)?"
    CAT-THE-FIFTH: "The Antec 300 is a case which has an understated and clean appearance which many people like. Not everyone is into e-peen looking computers which look like a cross between the imagination of a hyperactive 10 year old and a Frog."
    TKPeters: "Off to AVForum better Deal - £20+Vat for Free Shipping @ Scan"
    for all intents it seems to be the same card minus some gays name on it and a shielded cover ? with OEM added to it - GoNz0.

    Re: a tip for hexus forums

    Never seen this on a forum and thought it worked well... just detracts from the actual posting.

    Most people get very rapid responses anyway, and on top of that it's searchable in the future and people are less inclined to write in text speak.
