come on guys, if facebook can do it then newschoolers can do it, or is it the fact that you guys just dont want to have a NSChat? sending PMs back and forth takes to long and is really boring.... well im just throwing that out there.... but i think its a good idea.........

there used to be one on the right hand side where quick links is now, but kids just kept spamming it so it got taken down.

i think what he means is like a chat were you chat with only one user at a time, not like a chat with everyone on NS

Meh. I like the PM message system, it allows for leaving messages, or having distant conversations over time, rather then when you're just logged on. There's no reason you can't get that persons AIM/MSN name and chat with them there for a more instant chat.

with an instant chat thoguh, you dont get the sellers avoiding you like they so frequently do here - you can just spam them until they reply (you often get the case where they read the PM, and you can see that, but they just ignore you)

If they're ignoring your PMs, they're probably going to avoid your spamming as well. Learn to do business with people who only have good feedback. If the feedback in their profile is negative, or non existent, second guess doing business with them. Don't think NSchat would fix/help shady sellers.

There was an ns chat around 2003, but it was a stand alone app that refreshed all your pm's.

Writing an IM app is wicked hard, but it could be done using a free Jabber server.

the sidebar chat on the mainpage used to be sweet.

Doesnt NS already have the code for a working Chat system (used during live events on here)?

ex. https://newschoolers.com/web/content/pagetemplate/name/streaming/page/playstreets08

Seems to work for me no problem...

I know that Meebo plugin that you can use, sparknotes.com has one. So you can use that with a custom newschoolers jabber.

i think that there should be the option to have instant chat with your NS friends. and the PM message system should still be here but it would be like the fb style. send messages when they are offline, and chat when online.

it's really inefficient in the way it's organized, though. if it were organized by conversation it would be so much easier. like it it was sorted by each member i was PMing that'd be sweet, considering it's so easy to lose track of a PM if you made a huge sale thread or are talking to several people.
