What is wrong with it? Nothing loads up.

Chatbox is compatable back to 3.6. Here's a link to the post on vBulletin about it: http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=168992

Do you know of an active installation/demo of it somewhere? The one in the linked post doesn't work.

Here's one, I'll keep looking though...

I'll play with it. We'll see how it works.

**DaFace** · 10-20-2016, 09:15 PM

I've got MGC installed if anyone cares to try it out.

Let me know if it doesn't work - there are a ton of permissions to set.

**DaFace** · 10-20-2016, 09:53 PM

I've played with MGC for a bit, and I like it well enough to give it a try. The Chat link at the top has now been updated to point to it.

Let me know what thoughts you guys have on it. It has quite a few settings that I can tweak, so if something seems really annoying, let me know.

Seems like it works well enough for what we need. I kind of like that you can see chat as your browsing the forums, going in and out of threads.

Would be cool if it could be active on the pages within a thread too. Could be in GDT and Chat at the same time.

That might be awkward and resource intensive, I dunno.

Thanks for the work DaFace, appreciated.

Yeah, we technically could have it on every page, but I'm not sure how that would impact server loads during a game when everyone is refreshing like crazy. We'll see how it goes this weekend (and see if anyone ever uses it more casually), then decide what to do with it.

Thanks for the work, DaFace. I look forward to getting back in the chat this weekend. That Raiders game would have been a lot more fun with chat working.

Is the Chat going to be down today ?

For some reason, the thread got moved to DC, but apparently (from essentially one text message from Kyle) we were hacked.

Slowdowns during the game aren't unusual, but the complete lockups we had this past week are.

thanks DaFace. you are DaBest!
