I took the other shoutbox off the site because I don't trust it and some of the ads could potentially be malicious from what I read.
Anyways with the new shoutbox, you don't have to register for it..I have it set up so it automatically uses your forum username, and it's also hidden from guests so it's only available to registered site members.
The downsides of this shoutbox is you have to refresh the page or click the refresh icon next to the send button to see new messages, and you also have to click the send button to send your messages instead of hitting enter.
This is probably the best one I'm going to find for the time being so I hope everyone can get used to it. The only way to get rid of having to manually refresh is through a paid subscription of 30 bucks a year, or 10 bucks every 100 days etc and it adds a bunch of other features, but I don't have dough for that atm so that will have to wait ;(

if you do that Rob, as soon as i get some spare cash I'll hook you up. So it will be a joint effort instead of just one man comin out of pocket.

Thats awfully cool of you pootymack, I appreciate the gesture but its cool. We are all doing our part to make this site as cool as it can be. This just happens to be an area where I can help out. Im happy to do it to make the site cooler for you, the other dragons and myself as well. Its not about the $$$, just about the site kickin ass. ;D |

just wondering, how do the regular mods clear and clean the new shoutbox? or is that just something for the admins? The new shoutbox has only been up since last night. Currently there is no way for Bw1zZ to assign Mods to the shoutbox. This, along with the refresh button, and having to erase what you just typed in order to type something new are some of the reasons I would like to upgrade. I just need to talk it over with Bw1zz and see what we get by upgrading. As soon as we know what the deal is, il let you and cabal know whats up. 8-) |

lol, sorry i'm just anxious. i can't wait, this site is the shit and i just wanna do as much as possible! can't wait to ban my first rule breaker lol...do we even have any rules yet? ;D Just the regular no racism, porno, links to illegal downloads etc for the moment just so the site itself isn't put in jeopardy...other than that there really isn't any set rules at the moment..I don't want this site to be a Dictatorship but having some rules will be necessary. Thanks again for throwin down on the shoutbox rob it wasn't necessary but it did make it alot smoother/better than it was...I like it so far but I'll be on the lookout for something better that can still integrate the site login name into the shoutbox...I still think the one we have now is perfect for the time being ;D can't assign everyone mod powers but it doesnt really require that much modding anyways. And also this one doesn't support the hit enter to send msg feature at all but its not that hard to click send. Also soon I'm going to add pootymack and cabal the killa to the shoutbox users list, that way their name shows up green in the shoutbox like it does on the site...all that will be required is typing in the same pass used for the clan only forum to log onto the shoutbox. All it does is lets me customize the name color/gives you the ability to modify or delete your own shouts...unfortunately I have to add the user/set a pass to give those features. I'm probably just going to add mods so their name in the shoutbox reflects their name color on the site, makes it look good IMO. Oh and if any staff don't feel like typing in a pass for the shoutbox just let me know and I'll take you off the userlist. |

I want to note that DIRTYLOVA is still unable to access/get into the shoutbox and I'm imagining a few others are experiencing this as well, for everyone having problems with the shoutbox, please post ur username in this thread, and state exactly in detail what the problem you're having is. Between B W1zZ, Dark Rob, and the entire staff here at BLACK DRAGON Forums,we will figure out this little dilema and get it straightened out for you, thanks for your patience.  |

Dirty mentioned this to me in a PM on MKU as well Black, Im not sure what the problem is. My guess would be hes used to the MKU shoutbox where you can type and hit enter. Here you have to click the send button or hit TAB, SPACEBAR. I noted this to him in my reply

I know MKU is used to their shoutbox but this is the shoutbox we are sticking with for now...this website is NOT meant to be a direct clone of MKU...similar? yes, exactly like MKU? absolutely not.
All im saying is people need to get used to our shoutbox or dont use it, period.
*edit* if anyone is having problems even viewing the shoutbox then it has something to do with your browser's cookie settings. Try setting your browser to accept all cookies, if that doesn't work I don't know what to tell you. If you need any help with this feel free to PM me.
