For those of us that been on RallyPoint for some time now, we have seen this site come a long way since it's public launch a few years ago. We have seen the community grow from a few hundred to over 750,000 registered members. We have seen improvements to the User Interface and the introduction of best practices documents.
From time to time, you'll see threads asked looking for your thoughts and ideas on future improves. I think it's great that the RP staff is truly interested to hear from us and take our input into consideration when looking to make improvements. One feature that keeps getting kicked around is that of an online chat. While it would allow for faster communication between members, do feel this sort of feature will take away from our discussions in the forms? Or do you feel having online chat will help spark better discussions?

I think it would not be a good idea and it would take away from the forums. I think it could or would cause real time arguments.

It's a bit of a catch 22. The live chat would encourage more one on one interactions but I feel it would take away from the forum style discussions. There are pros and cons to both.
I guess it would ultimately be up to how the community as a whole responded.
