The problems with replacing a BBS with a chat room are...

1. Easier to troll.
2. Can't view previous conversations.
3. Too much talking at once.
4. Less organized.

Don't replace the BBS, it'd be a bad choice.

You don't have much experience with IRC, do you?
No. I don't even know what you're talking about.

IRC = Internet Relayed Chat

I saw a room with 900+ people in it before. Most aren't that large, but still, you get my drift; large chat rooms can work.

I don't think so. A lot of people come to Newgrounds just for the BBS. I'll definitely be using the Lit Portal and maybe Chat, but I'll still find some time to come here :P

Most of the sites I've been on have both IRC and forums. To me, they are "like apples and oranges" : two wholly separate entities. I'd hate to get rid of one in exchange for the other. BUT...I'm not paying for any of this so ...

my opinion in this matter is worth as much as a pile of onion peels.

Um guys... those of you claiming trolls. You do realize that their will probably be Chat Moderators. Which means for all those seeking that glory that shows shame such as modship could be the lucky ones.

What are you guys getting all upset for. The chat has been in the works for how long and it hasn't come out yet. They keep saying soon and soon turns into years.

If it does come out and the BBS gets deleted will post count change to hours in the chat room?

It may actually help the BBS so people can go relieve their spamness and then go post something REAL on the forums.

Oh dear Christ people. Can everyone stop quoting Tom's post and saying whatever unfunny shit comes to mind? For fucks sake it gets old.

The BBS is staying. Your jokes aren't funny. Everyone can shut the fuck up now.

wait a minute, so your saying that the BBS will be filled with only relationship and hentai threads? A terrible place it would be indeed..

Ill make sure the BBS has constant stress relief once chat comes around..

the BBS isnt going anywhere. Newgrounds already has a chat, and no one uses it. also, if a redesign is in the works, its going to be 5 years before its done. you know that.

Why does everyone think that NG Chat is going to replace the BBS? There already is a few unofficial chat systems that many people use, but the BBS still gets tons and tons of posts every day. People will post on the BBS as long as a +1 post count is in it for them.
