| Chat Room
What would it take to get a chat room started here on Vol Nation? I know lots of threads are being used for groups of people to chat and argue. It would be great to just get on here and click on a thread and just to get good info instead of wadding in a lot of useless info. I provide a bunch myself. I love this site I just thought this would make it a little better.  |

| Ya. I know other school websites have chat rooms. I remember getting on Kentucky's last year during the TN vs KY game so I could see their reactions to our 25th win ;) | |

| I don't even bother with the game threads on here. 20 posts a minute and it's just a bunch of people wanting to hear themselves talk. Nobody actually reads what other people say. Just a bunch of people freaking out and repeating the same thing over and over again. If a touchdown is scored, 20 people post at the same time as if they are special. If there is a turnover, 20 more people saying the same thing.
I can do without the game threads for football games. Pointless. | |

| Chatroom would be a very cool addition IMO. Don't really see the downside other than more server space. | |

| i brought this up in a suggestion thread way back and someone mentioned that having a chat room during games would lower the sites post count. dont know if that is the actual reason but a chat room during games would be great. | |

"touchdown"
"touchdown!"
"wooooo!"
"omg touchdown!"
"yeah!"
"more touchdowns!"
