Instant message system.

I feel that FK would benefit greatly from a IM system.

I do understand that building one would not be easy nor cheap but in the long run would be worth it and more reasons to not deal offsite. It would make everything a lot more convenient whether it be chatting or doing deals.

To start it off i think it should be a upgrade only thing as it would bring in more money to pay off the system.

Willing to accept the 20% warning as the sticky says i still believe this should happen idc

Seems like a good idea. Don't think it will get added though.

You mean like TapaTalk or whatever it's called?

A little bar on the bottom with all the people online, click on their name and a chat box appears just between you two, that would be so amazing I would die for it. @Philly @dui @Ride @Dutch

This would take away from people posting and making threads etc.

@Fear look at what I posted, no group, nothing just one on one IM messaging, it was on a forum I was on once and it seemed to work out just fine but it was like a upgrade thing.

Maybe only Power+ people could have it.

well if you think about it PMs get annoying and are slow, new day and age we need to advance.

I still think it will lesson activity and people would post less etc. I don't see @Philly liking this idea much.

I see him caring more about FK stats etc.

Posts / Threads / are more important.

When I had suggested this a while back, I got the exact same response as what FeaR had said.
I don't think it'll be implemented but I support this, best of luck!

 

[Matigo]

@Fear I suppose but it is all up to the staff and @Philly

It would take activity away from the forum. Thats why this wont be implemented. Use AIM. And just PM someone before doing a deal.

It shouldnt be about stats over what members would like to see. I dont think it would drop activity at all as people PM as it is and this would allow you to be browsing and chatting at the same time so you can be posting and chatting simultaneously.

 

[Matigo]

@JFK but some people do not like AIM or are too lazy to PM ;p

Exactly and this idea was shot down already by staff. I personally like the idea but it won't be added pretty sure.

 

[Doom]

I vote only Power or Power+ rank get this feature.

 

[Matigo]

@Philly @Fear I believe that this should be available to Power+ entrees.

You havent been around long enough to understand how annoying everything is making an aim and all that.

I think this is a superb idea! Not sure why staff didn't like it.
