I couldn't originally find a shoutbox that would work - hence the poll. It would have been a pita to have modified the existing one to work with the new site. However, a few days ago I found one that works with the new forum code, and it took about 20 secs to install, so I thought I might as well put it on ;)

...and only 5 wanted to keep it :P :P :P

Nice to see that it will be included, even though I voted no originally because I thought it was going to bog everything down and be a PITA to implement. :D

Yes I'm confused. If you ignore the "I don't care" results which are effectively pointless, the result is surely that no shoutbox is wanted?

Indeed, but as I mentioned the reason I put the poll up was because it was going to be a hassle putting on one. As it happened I found one 2 days ago that was simple (and I mean really simple, requiring just a couple of clicks to install and configure) and threw it on to test the installer mod I have added to the site (makes installing mods much easier than manually editing all the files that need to be tweaked each time) and it works great. I can still take it off if everyone would be happier with that though ...

I think it would be worthwhile to see it on the new site before making a final decision. As I said, I thought it would be problematic, from your post it looks like it was a pretty simple addon. Have to see how it looks and works.
