Hi Ice.
Is there any way to be able to see who is viewing a particular thread at the same time you are. I don't mean as it is setup now on the Forum front page where it shows who's online, but on individual threads.
I'm thinking that it might go a bit of the way toward the chat room idea that was proposed a while back.
For example if you and I are viewing the same thread one of us could quickly post in that thread to head over to the General Chat index and start a real time discussion going. As an addition to that if anyone else happend to wander by they would see us active on a page and join in. :gamer:
I've just read back over that. Did it make sense?:confuse2:
At the same time would it be possible to give members the option of being invisible so that if they don't feel like chatting or just want to lurk in the background they can turn that option off. If you know what I mean?:abduct:
Just a though
Paul
