A real CHATBOX :)
« on: December 18, 2011, 05:17:59 pm »
Hey guys,
I ve been searching for a good chatbox :) There are also a couple of toolbars, but they go Over each other ;)

Here is a page where you can test them yourself :)
http://www.b07clan.smfnew.com/index.php/page,Test.html

What do you guys think ? what is the nicest ?

Here is a list of what i found,




The real chatboxes

Flash chat

This is my favorite
good:
 - Can be used without registration, however its realy easy and fast to register.
 - Easy to sendPM's (personal messages)
 - Looks good
 - You canot use charchers like $ in your name
 - (we could add more rooms but im not very sure of that)

bad:
 - takes a little long to load But maybe its becouse there are to many widgets on the test site.
 - No history (you cant see what was said before you logged in)
 - No sounds (new messanges etc.)


Free chat room
Well... it works
Good:
 - you can use charchers like $ in your name
 - Sounds (new messages etc.)
 - PM's (pearsonale message) are
 - Possibility to block/mute users (like when they spam)
 - Can be used without registration, I think it can also be used With a registration (but i dont know how yet )
 - Load time not to bad

Bad:
 - The look ! its horrible !!
 - (to) much adds
 - No history (you cant see what was said before you logged in)


99chat
I think flash chat is just a little better | A little confusing
good:
 - also a little bad: there is a mute button so i guess the should be sounds, but i cant enable them
 - Very easy PM's (personal message)
 - can be used without registration

Bad:
 - Cant find how to enable sounds
 - There is a possibility to login, but you dont seem to be able to register lol
 - No history (you cant see what was said before you logged in)


IRC
I think most of you allready know IRC, for those who dont: Its a old VERY much used way to chat. But i have to admit It will be the first time i use IRC so ill have to learn it ;) . But that wont be realy a problem
Good:
 - Can be used with your own program (like mIRC or Xchat)
 - Much support on vorums/blogs etc.
 - Much possibilities
 - Can be used with and without registration.
 - Loads faster than all the other chatboxes (at least at my computer (linux:OpenSUSE with (no google) chrome))
 - PM's supported and easy when you know how ;)

Bad:
 - No history (you cant see what was said before you logged in) (maybe there is but i dont know where.
 - May be a bit difficult to learn for those that dont know IRC




The tool/chat bars
It may be a bit difficult to see those on the test page since they overlap each other. So ill also provide a link to a page with the specific toolbar so you can look at it without having all the other toolbars 'over' it
[I will test the toolbars tomorrow]

well since no **** member except emme and me had the idea to reply to the **** topic, i guess we (emme and me) choose the best

I choose for IRC what makes it 1 - 1 flashchat - IRC or 0 - 2
What do you vote emme ?
