Dead Chat
Seems like everytime I view the chat, all I see are idle members, no matter what time of the day. Is the chat that dead?
I had a little idea to maybe make it more noticeable people are in chat, in short just change "Chat" to "Chat (X)", X being the number of people in the chat, and only show the X if there is atleast one person. Obviously from the vB end you won't be able to tell who is on though IRC (unless you made a plugin on that side I guess), but you could easily check user sessions to see who's on that page. The flaw with that ofcourse is the session will expire, but that could be overcome, a little simple bit of javascript which records mouse moments and times and fires a session update through AJAX every x minutes if mouse movements are not idle. Ofcourse, If I've just been very unlucky and the chat is not dead, feel free to ignore all that |

It is not the most active channel, that is true.
but what we very often see is someone joining, ask a question (often even without reading the welcome message) and leave if nobody answers within a minute. Most who are online are not watching IRC all, they do other stuff and check for new messages once in a while, so waiting a bit longer might help. But i have to admit that i also often don't start it anymore. |

What chat???
Maybe it would be a good idea to list it on the home page. |

Everytime I've been in there it's always been dead. I'd expect in the run up to xmas it won't be any active.
