Over the years we have had several requests for a live chat incorporated with the site. We have been running a chat for some time for the Spec Ops members as well as recently for the clan leaders. The biggest concern with live chat systems on sites as large as ours is server strain, but in watching it looks like we are doing a ok on that.
So here are the key features and restrictions for non Spec Ops Members:
Users are limited to 10 chat entries every 24 hours
Chat Auto refreshes every minute until chat limit reached
Can report inappropriate chats
Cannot use BBCODE or Smileys in the Chat
Spec Ops Premium Members have these Key Features - to become a Spec Ops Premium member click here
No limit to Chat usage in a 24 hr period
Auto Refresh every 5 seconds
Can use BBCODE and Smileys in the chat
Can choose their default channel
Now this may seem like major limitations for non Premium members, and we will review the daily limit closely to see if there is a need to increase it. We have these limitations in place to keep server usage down for free usage of the chat.
You can access the Full Size Chat here
The Code of Conduct does apply to the live chat system. Even if you are a Spec Ops Premium member you can be banned from the chat.
Enjoy the new feature guys.
