| What about live chat on CAD. This may have been suggested before. I did not do a search but took a quick peak at previous topics. I've seen it on other forums so why not here? |

| Thanks . Anyone from CAD cars to reply. Ive seen it work on other boards. I see alot lot of people posting going back and forth getting off topic quit often. It would get rid of a lot of that kinda stuff. |

| It's been discussed in the past and CAD has decided not to go with the feature. The logistics of managing it are not something they want to mess with. |

| Maybe they would reconsider. How long ago was it discussed. A lot of people use this board maybe the increase numbers of users and posts could persuade them :) |

| You could send CAD a PM and ask It was talked about again some 6 months ago or so. There are several reasons for not wanting it, chief among them being the fact that it would require moderation 24/7 and a chat room being what it is, they would be looking for new moderators every month or so and people came and went and interest waxed and waned. I don't see it happening here, but it never hurts to ask. |

| Live chat rooms breed contempt and are a security risk. Plus, they eat up tons of server resources and we aren't manned (or womanned) to police the chat rooms. |
