How about this, make a chat room or shoutbox for scheduled chat events. Announce when you will open it. Then after the event, it gets closed.

Thats a sweet idea. Did I just say "sweet"? :O :O
not keen on shout boxes my self but to have it open on given days would make it

more appealing to me .i feel the spoil the look of a site and detract from posts
Thats why you should schedule open chats at certain times and close it for the rest :)

Whatever I do, is not only just up to me, but to what the community really wants.

Yeppers, you said sweet. :P And that's a pretty good idea too.
With the ajax shoutbox, all I have to do is enable / disable it. The stuff stays in the templates. I could pop it up at different times, but it certainly wouldn't be on all the time. :P
So should we plan days to put on the calender for scheduled chats?

That would be sort of lame to plan out when we would open the shoutbox. How about, we enable it just when a lot of members are online?
I wouldn't say plan, but I could pop it up on the index on various, random days. :P
Hah, I like Killz idea, but then we'd be bored, because no one would be on the chat:P

Since most of us are teens who go to public school, the chats should be planned at after school hours:wink2:
I still don't think they should be planned. That's too boring. Then everyone *knows* when it's going to appear.

I think it's more fun if I just activate it randomly. :P
