In theory.
But Leeza brings up the point of having to moderate it. I don't know about you guys but I would NOT want to have to sift through hundreds of posts every half an hour to make sure everybody was playing nice.

I'm hardly a spammer, but even my count is up to 952.
I definitly agree with Void. Moderating this thing would be a nightmare.
Aaron is stupid.
If it really becomes a problem to moderate it, you could always do what I do when problems like this crop up and add new staff members. xD
My usernote count is only at like 56 :mad2:
Moderating it isn't the problem. The problem is that it's stupid.
Boy, I wonder why The Man only comes around here once every four months.
I blame Shlup. :mad2:
I actually happened to be on Fool's Gold today and saw the thing. I found it to be very suitable for that environment, which is to say it would be completely inappropriate for any venue even approaching common decency.

I like this idea. You really wouldn't have to moderate it. On FG after so many replies they get chopped off and are not viewable...at least from what I remember of the old shout box. I like the crazyness of it.
Just further proof that it's stupid.
*gives Aaron a cookie made of pie*
There's a shoutbox archive, but really, no one ever looks in it. You could probably disable it pretty easily, too.Quote:

Plus you could always apply the swear filter to it also...which it is probably done by default anyways.
The swear filter is on a global replacement, at least for smurf and. So the shoutbox would automatically filter itself.
