Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
IRC would be even better.Maybe we could use something like a SteelSoldiers channel on some existing chat site, such as an IRC server? I don't know if web-based front-ends are available for IRC. My vote would be for a chat feature which has broad compatibility with PCs, tablets and smartphones, accessible from either a plain web browser (for folks who have ordinary desktops and don't want to be bothered with anything new-fangled) or smartphone/tablet apps (for folks who use those and want it optimized for small screens). Fancy features and eye candy aren't important in my opinion.
If I could access the regular chat from my iPad or iPhone, then I could be connected during lulls at work, pop in for some chatting during lunch, etc.
But you never call me...

There's a number of users here that aren't, shall we say computer savy, to try to get into something like chat IRC clients. Have to keep things as simple as possible. (I mean no disrespect by this comment either people)

Gimps new Avatar?I just use my phone.
Here's one picture I needed to send to a member today, while the site was out. And yes, it was MV related, sort of.
Thought we did that the last outage, tied to bring it up, could not be found in the great internet worldIf it would be ok with everyone, I'd like to consider offering a remotely hosted chatroom link for the main page when the site is down. No, it's far from perfect I know. But perhaps it would allow everyone to meet up still. (Just thinking out loud here)
