I think we should add the Private Messaging hack. That would be a very popular feature to this board. Since it says who is currently "logged in" why should we not be able to Message them? Just a thought

Private messaging and maybe even a chat would be nice.

Hope to see both of these.

I definitely agree that both of these features are very nice to have for this forum..

When can we expect to benefit from this ?

We already had a discussion about a chat and decided not to because they would probably replace the forums. I still like the Private Message idea though.

I believe you will see something to this effect released in a future version, so it may not be worth the trouble now. Smiling

i do not think chat would replace the forums, because you can get better help by posting and leaving it for a day because all timezones see the plea for help. chat is just to get to know the members that are logged on!

just my 2 cents

I'd say Private Messaging is a great idea, but Chat isn't. I think it will decrease the amount of total posts overall. Private Messaging sounds fantastic...

It seems as if they Private Message hack is to old for this version of the board. We will have to wait for the next release of the pm hack.

I am thinking that vBulletin will come with the hack pre-installed though very soon...

Sorry about that!

I think you are very correct about that. It is planned in the next major release I believe.
