Chime Feature?

I've noticed that I've missed a lot of chat messages while browsing through other webpages while in Chat on The Broth. I feel like I'm being rude or something. A chime of some sort would be helpful to announce that a new chat message was sent? Also, have the tab blink to also visually let you know?

Just suggestions, I know you guys are extremely busy and all.

I miss lots of chat messages too, and after they are sent, it's kinda hard to scroll up to read the messages when people are still chatting.

yes, i've ALSO thot about this. Confused

but then again...wouldnt that make the broth into more of a site/program like AIM, or MSN messenger...or some of those CHAT programs...and perhaps less ART based...hmm. Wink

i can see it both ways. any other opinions?~

If there is a chime feature please let us be able to turn it off because i hate those. they're so annoying and with the amount of messages people like chatterbox spit at me it'd never shut up!

Hmm... I didn't realize I typed so much! I apologize. Yeah, an on/off buttom would work like magic! Oh, another thing, it would ONLY work if you had minimized the browser page to let you know a chat message arrived. It wouldn't do it all of the time.

KG, you've got a point, but I'd like to be able to recieve those messages if I can.

I see what you mean IMM, I sometimes get bored by some people who never say anything. It's like... "hi" and then 20-minutes pass by, "Ok, nice meeting you bye." C'mon tell me a little more information!!

A chime, maybe not. A slight tick, yes.
It wouldn't annoy people because it's just a slight 'tick' but it'd signify a message was sent.

perferably a sound that wudnt get annoying after 20 sent messages or so... Razz

i dont feel the need of "chime" feature....

KarateGirl · Posted: Sat Oct 07, 2006 2:24 pm Post subject:

i dont think its NECASSARY, but may be nice to have...then again. it might lead people to focus more on the chat, and less on the artworks. (

say some1 has a window open and then the broth under that window...and they heard a noise and then they responded to the chat...there only there for the chat and rnt really making ART.) it goes obth ways i guess. Very Happy

ya kg may be this chime feature should be controllable u know on/off by the user...then it wud be good feature i guess

yeah, id be nice to have if there was a on/off feature as imm mentioned b4. otherwise if we didnt have a on/off feature, maybe the window would blink. *sound is more annoying than a blinking window thingy* ... Very Happy

Maybe we could have a customisable .wav file....
You could be alerted by ..."OY! I'M FLIPPIN' TALKIN' TO YOU!"

Or maybe not...
