    Is it possible we could get live chatrooms?

    You know like chatrooms based on certain subjects, you go in logged as your username and sort of like chat with people about problems and ideas. I know I'm new I just thought I'd pitch the idea. If its a bad idea you can delete this thread mods.

    I can't imagine how expensive the server and bandwidth would cost...

    Or am I totally off?

    I think this is a great idea, but in my limited knowledge of what it takes to run a webstie, i agree with the notion that it could potentially consume monster bandwidth.

    the best would be to use a verision of IRC, but maybe the web based verison that way, we dont have to explain how to use IRC to everyone..

    A live chat would take away from the purpose of the forum, and go more towards general chat.
    Fold for XS!

    I get almost no gain with the 3rd GTX. In fact I just added it because it is for sale, and I thought by adding another it would have more appeal.

    What I meant by the first post in case some of you didn't understand was say this scenario.
    You browse a section, say its Liquid Cooling. If you need a quick answer on a small question, maybe there could be a specific chatroom for Liquid Cooling where you can ask a quick question, without having to post an entirely new thread. There could be a different chatroom for each topic where there could be live discussions. I understand it may be hard to setup with servers and bandwidth, I just thought if it was plausible it would be a good idea, and it could be something that XS had that made it different from other overclocking forum websites.

    What about a hidden room, you sign up for to chat, no complants,make your point and let others make theirs.
    The Laws of Thermodynamics say:

    Zeroth Law: "You must play the game."
    First Law: "You can't win."
    Second Law: "You can't break even."
    Third Law: "You can't quit the game."

    Do you wanna Play Thermodynamics ???????? I forgot "you must"

    Search button says: quake net. Channel is the same as the website (minus the .net).

    i was imagining things like live overclocking results and troubleshooting. live chat would make certain events community efforts and involve more of XS rather than some guy or groups of guys doing something cool and everyone on XS hearing about it the next day with plenty or hardware masturbation fodder piccies.
