Not many people use it anymore. Every few months, people start getting back into it for a week or two, then we lose interest and bugger off again :)

Would it be possible to put the link to the chat room that shows how many people are in it next to the new topic/post links? (for example, it could say: There are: 68 new messages | 4 new topics |10 people in the chat room.)

Just my opinion, if that's worth anything. :roll:

I quite like the chat room, but I keep forgetting about it.

Heck, if there were more to remind me about it, I'd use it - not now though, I've got to go to bed now, it's getting close to stupid o'clock*

*Whadda mean, you don't know when Stupid o'clock is? It's two and a quarter hours before "crawl home drunk" o'clock, 23 minutes from "What does that clock say!?!", and any prime number of minutes after "I'll be in bed in a minute, I promise".

It's also known as "Why can't I get to sleep at this time?", but only when your head has a comparable altitude to your feet.
Does that thing kinda look like a big cat to you?

Wow, I have been a member for almost a year, and I didnt even know that there was a chat... Thanks for the heads up!

I once started a topic like this. But PCGUY didnt respond into it.

I like the idea wich notes how many people there are in the chat.

This shall be done, but not until I get SpudFiles moved to it's own virtual server. Right now I feel that the server SpudFiles is currently on would have a fit if a bunch of people started to use the chat, so it's actually a good thing the link is small!
