    Default Shoutbox

    Shoutbox is a double edge sword. They can be fun and all, but they drive content out of the site since nothing gets stored and u can't search it. Besides they tend to be resource hogs. Still, I would like to see what's your opinion on this.

    Don't make a shoutbox, it will be spammed. You need really active mods for that which we unfortunately don't have as of right now.

    I don't think shoutbox is a good idea, if anything then some kind of live chat like Cometchat or Arrowchat.

    I personally never missed shout box here either. So I will not vote for that.
    Most people are talking in game, or through various messengers anyway.

    Gotta agree with all the above honestly,
    also I think that it might get abused to much by buy/sellers.

    Well i would give it a try, ofc if it would be spammed/flamed too much it should be deleted.

    I agree, and I think this is the main reason for not adding shoutbox.
