Umm IRC??

@ thread_starter..

Come @ IRC... IRC is where the party is !

IRC is good one . but hardly any one come on it

^err?

Whenever I've come on IRC I find people discussing some game as to who shot whom and who is in who's back alley. IM would be a PAIN. Besides, I am not so JOBLESS. Forum is convenient that way.

....and the place where you stink a lot

Why to go anywhere else? If we have a common platform to share. We know most of the users here, I know he is expert in this and he is expert in that. here we understand each other very well. And some times its very urgent that you need to have a continuous discussion. The problem which takes one or two days to solve can get solved in 2 minutes. We can be in continuous contact of the person needing help or when we need help.

Please take part in the poll also.

100% it must be...

Another thing is if people get their problems solved on IM, then these solutions may not be available to other users in the forum. The solution will have to repeated again and again and again........ We still have that problem now with people not searching before they post :S

how to get to the IRC room??
i tried to get to the room once but there was noone there. can someone guide me??

@all ...

u guys.. better than a IRC or a IM.... id to start a shout in the site itself... those of u frequent to other ech sites will be knowing what i mean.. its better..simpler..convinent and good for all of us...

Well the idea seems good to me, but only digit forum members should be allowed on it. it can be good when someone needs a quick response

I myself had times like that, that is why i think so.

Good idea.. but if i chat, then sure i've been thrown out of my office.. Forum is the safer way....

^^^

the shout is embedded in the site..only members allowed...so..its all a win

ye , it is a good idea.

I Would Certainly prefer Flashchat

Google the term "visit #think-digit irc"
You will get lots of results. Try any of 1st 4.

(am I doing cheap publicity here? pardon me

)

^^ This is a formal warning.. No advertising of any sort is allowed on this forum

^^
How is that advertising? He was just telling him to search on Google.

^ I think he was joking

in fact.. BOTH were joking...

According to rules no one is allowed to do publicity of any type. He is seriously alleged of breaking forum laws. He must be banned for 1 weak.

Raboo must be a fat guy I bet.

How abt a shoutbox like we have observed in different forums ?

This has been discussed before.. Shoutboxes are very resource intensive, and need constant moderation. IRC is the place to be if you need a chat room.
