How about an IRC chat page? - Keitaro - 2008.Mar.11 11:51 AM
There are many websites out there with an IRC chat room. This, in my experience, gives people a bit more freedom to talk to one another than the PM system does. There are many ways to get an IRC on a website.
For those of you who do not know what IRC is, here is the wikipedia definition: IRC Definition
So, please tell me what you think about having an IRC chat on this site.

It has been attempted. Put something together yourself maybe? see how it goes, if well, then come back and show your findings... would be my sugestion.

Its slogan could be: The chat room, for when you really want an extended stay in the hospital.

How about a simple HTML/PHP one? I think that it could be quite faster.

You mean like this code?
Code:
<div id="#wrchatframe" style="text-align: center;">
<iframe scrolling="no" align="middle" frameborder="0" height="540" width="700" name="flashchat" src="http://flashirc.wyldryde.org/getchat.php?channel=awakenedlands"></iframe>
<div class="poweredby" style="text-align: center; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: xx-small; margin-top: 6px; margin-right: 6px; margin-left: 6px; margin-bottom: 6px">

I do not mean Adobe Flash chat (which you just suggested), but pure HTML/PHP chat. All chat messages could be stored in the Awakened Lands database; kind of similar to how these forums are set-up, really. Also, an iframe is not neccassarily required, but it will pretty much work the same way. Hmmm, I will see if I can get an example of pure HTML/PHP chat, just to make things easier to understand.

Some thing like the above, but with out the need to choose a username, for that can be easily automatically implemented in to the game.
