Well?
What do you think?
Even if there is no option for widgets for this provider, since I have never used Proboards before and I am not familiar with the layout, you could easily leave a Chatbox in the Portal so that people who are willing to chat with members who are currently online will be able to with ease. This also saves time over PMs and having to use Hamachi, which I believe is harshly limiting in terms of communication as only four or six members can join a single server (counting the server owner).
A usually best Chatbox to use comes from Chatango; it's simple, quick, has easy tools for moderators to use to monitor the chat, and the "pop" sound is very clear and distinctive to help alert members to any new messages. Not to mention that every owner of a Chatango account will have their own profiles to edit and add to their will. You can also post images and have them show up. Managing your staff is easy here, and you can also ban people by either account or IP, depending on who you are banning and for what reasons. One downfall is that it can easily crash at times, because it runs as a flash object.
Another good choice is Cbox.ws, but the best features come from paying for the premium edition. I don't know what the normal edition includes, but what I can guess is that the premium versions allows the owner to add their own custom icons to it. Also, .gif avatars will show their animations, unlike most chatboxes. Also, all accounts made on that Chatbox are linked to it and not Cbox.ws, meaning that you can monitor and see who has multiple accounts and who doesn't, and this in itself is very useful. Sadly, you need to pay for it to bring out the reasons which put it above Chatango as a choice.
This is also my first post on the forum, but I don't really want to introduce myself like that, I'll have people know more about me over time. One thing's for certain is that I won't be able to keep up here as I am not very carefree in real life.
Oh, and I'm not a fan of Sword Art Online. Might watch it later, maybe after Clannad and possibly Code Geass too. I dunno really. Video-game cyberspace-themed anime never do seem that interesting to me save for Megaman X.
EDIT: As a comment, I would also like to point out that placing the word "Noob" under my name has actually aroused my interest. I find it highly amusing as a rather strong sense of humor, and I would prefer if it stays that way. Of course, one should be cautious about people who do not, apparently, have such a similar sense of humor.
