kind of like instant messenger

not sure how technical this will be but when people are in the chatroom they should have the option to instant message who they wanna talk to privately. if they wanna take it further their should be a 800 number for both parties to call with the same extention number and they should talk for 5 mins

Thank you for the suggestion. As far as the 800 number, I have no plans in implementing that anytime soon. I feel if people want to talk to each other, they can exchange numbers...if I were someone interested in speaking with someone, calling a 800 number is a little far fetched.

In regards the Instant Messenger, I have some plans under way to implement that, but as of now...the chat box is in place. However, you're right...an Instant Messenger is much more complex to add than a regular chatbox. It involves a lot of memory, which of course, costs money. Having an Instant Messenger is like a having hundreds of little chatboxes and really chews memory on the server which will in turn slow down the site. Currently, I have other things that I am trying to do...so the IM is not high on the list now. I appreciate the suggestion.

Thanks,
Zay
