It appears this issue is old anyways, but I guess I could throw in my opinion.

I think for "chatting" an IRC channel or maybe a group chat on MSN would be a better option.

It would be good, but also a privilege, maybe it should only be viewable by Regular members? To stop it being spammed etc?

It may look like a good idea, at first. But it is a source for headaches. I have a better thing in mind that I should try to implement this winter. More restricted, but also in theory more 'productive'.

Yeah, that will move kings of lowbrow out of forum threads. I support the idea.

Shoutboxes are a little annoying and use a lot of space. I voted no.

I like IRC. You could also implement IRC here on the web instead of a shoutbox, with a java applet or flash plugin.

Well...like I said I have an idea in mind which is not easy to implement, but on the other hand it is worth to try. Read next..

Most hosts don't allow the installation of IRC servers, which relay on other IRC servers and are a pain to maintain and a potential security hole.

There is a secure alternative to IRC, SILC, which I think that it could be installed as a server and which works over an encrypted channel. However the choice of clients is very limited.
