Default RMO Chat

RMO now as a chat feature. Here is a brief difference between a chat room and a forum.

What is a chat?

A chat is a real time online conversation between two or more users. All participants must be in front of their computer at the same time. The chat takes place in a "chat room", a virtual online room also called a channel. Users type their messages, and their messages appear on the monitor as text entries that scroll many screens deep. It is like instant messaging, but generally with more than two people.

What is a Discussion Forum?

Discussion forums are really a slow-motion form of chat. A forum is an asynchronous service where you can trade non-instant messages with other members. The other members reply on their own schedule, and do not need to be present while you are sending.

So now that you know the difference you can use both methods to talk with other users. I will add the chat function to the menu system soon. Until then invite a friend and have a real-time chat here:

Get out of here! You mean we can argue more quickly?
