Nissan 370Z Forum - just a though

- - just a though (http://www.the370z.com/nissan-370z-general-discussions/38741-just-though.html)

just a though that has been going through my mind, i don't know if it is possible to do, but wouldn't it be cool if there was an instant messaging option or section on the forum where members can chat with each other, that would be much easier if for example a member needed help or has a question about something that way they could get hold of other members of this forum that might be able to help out and it will be much much easier maybe to get hold of vendors when they are online and available to chat with. I know I know all of you will say thats what PM's are for or you can just start a thread, but having online live chat will be a nice addition as well, just a thought :)

is there skype on the forum ?

What I would like to see is a skype connect box when you left click on my user name.

There are numerous threads about this in the suggestions section of the forum, where you will find the administrator's responses to the concept.

:tiphat:

Some digging gives me this:

The last thing I want a new members(when they sign up) to see is current members talking about mindless/useless talks. I watch many enthusiast BMW, Porshe, Audi forums and none of them have chat. While, when I go to some Scion, civic or the eclipse forums, they are gladly chatting their life away on the front page. Some of the topics in chat were so embarrassing/inappropriate, I had to leave the page/forum. It just didn't seem like a mature thing to do. I think you guys can see where I'm going with this.

We, as a The370Z forum members, would like to keep a very professional image. I think you've already noticed The370Z.com is a different kind of forum. We are here to provide our fellow members as much as solid information possible with least amount of bs/drama. For your entertainment, I have an "off topic" section where you're more than welcome to create a "The370Z Chat Thread" or use our existing "useless thread".

Thank you guys for understanding.

I'd like to have just one complete though in my head.

Each member can load in their AIM/Yahoo/MSN/Skype names on the forum, and you can contact that individual through those means...

Most people just don't put their info in.

the last time i put my IM info on car forums i got so bombarded by messages i stopped using it all together. lol :D
