Bring back the chat room

Bring back the chat room

Postby Templer » Mon Oct 09, 2017 3:24 pm

In PFS, there was once a in-game chat room.

I remember that in PFS often during the work with our teams chats were startet.
I miss this in-game chat room.
As far I know, the only league that has a functioning "chat system" is the CFA.

This won't happen. It required too much infrastructure on the server side to keep it going. Better for leagues to use other chat systems out there... skype, facebook, slack, forum chat, etc.

Wolverine Studios offer many games/simulations for virtual managers.
Why does Wolverine Studios not offer its own hosted, thought-out chat, with separated rooms for each game as a center meeting place for their managers?

Wolverine Studios is a company that offers a forum for communication and feedback. Its up to individual leagues to create their own chat room. The CFA hasn't always had a shoutbox (what you're referring to as our chat room) and even when we didn't, we didn't bother using the in-game chat. It was a complicated system that wasn't used by many and they removed it. If you want a chat so badly why not just create a slack account for your league? Slack is completely free and a great chat tool that allows you to create multiple rooms to discuss different topics.

Agree. The in game chat wasn’t great.

All sim nation leagues have a shoutbox, by the way. The wwpf has that and slack.
