Over the past couple of weeks me and my business partner have been working on a brand new chatroom for our vBulletin forum which is run using Socket.IO - I would just like to have an open discussion on what could be made better in terms of features so far we are around 85% into the development stage of this project. I believe this thread would fit in this forums as it's part of a vB4 development.

We have integrated the userlist using vbulletin profiles along with personal chats and viewing profiles, etc.

Here's some media;

Looks pretty good from the screenshots. Is that a 100% jquery or is there a mix and mingle of PHP as well? What methods are you using to pull the member profiles from the database?

This uses some partial PHP to pull information from the database, we're also caching data and creating our own sessions on the chat to secure admin privileges. Thank you for your interest.

Not bad, I made my own chatbox in Node.js with Socket.io, it's extremely fast. My chatbox is a lot more basic though, I wanted to keep it simple. (Has smiley/URL parsing, PM function, new thread/post notification, etc.)

This would probably work with VB5 as well. I use jquery to do a lot of things they say is impossible to do with VB5. Too bad I'm still a novice. I wish I could code like you guys.
