weezerboy Posted October 31, 2003 Report Share Posted October 31, 2003 i was just thinking...wouldn't it be cool if we found an audio chat room and then we like...played guitar for each other like a PG Forum showcase...meh..just an idea Quote Link to comment
Ace Posted October 31, 2003 Report Share Posted October 31, 2003 If I may suggest Paltalk for that. It's free (ad-supported) and has numerous cool options, we can set up our private room with password or leave it public and I already have quite a bunch of people from Guitarwar.com on my list. definitely cool as a starting point because it's free, easy to configure (mostly) and I already have it installed ;-) If we really want to have an on-site chat there's this company called IVocalize who offer such a service, but their server software is not for free and requires the host to run a windows operating system (don't know the hardware that PG.com is hosted on). We have IVocalize on guitarwar.com, but it has numerous drawbacks, notably it has issues with high-end recording audio cards and the number of ppl in a room is limited (want more people, buy more "seats"). GW has installed this software upon numerous requests from members all over the world, and since the site is supported by monthly fees, the one-time investment of the server software was possible, but for a start I'd truly recommend Paltalk so long ace Quote Link to comment
weezerboy Posted October 31, 2003 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2003 i'm not bothered about having an onsite one but i thought it was a cool idea Quote Link to comment
Ace Posted November 1, 2003 Report Share Posted November 1, 2003 So how about we set up a chat tomorrow at a certain time and check it out? I'd open my room and we could try if you guys like it. so long ace Quote Link to comment

krazyderek Posted November 1, 2003 Report Share Posted November 1, 2003 paltalk eh??? neverheard of it eh??? guitarwar.com eh??? ace... hmm... i don't think we ever wared.... (Skidog, Zero) but i haven't been a member for quite a while.... been working on my sweeping for the past year, i'll knock jonezter off his mountain yet!!! lol Quote Link to comment
Ace Posted November 1, 2003 Report Share Posted November 1, 2003 Ohhhhhh, of course...that's why you looked familiar on the pic in your profile. Yeah I'm working on my sweeping, too but I need to work on all ends. I'm back to guitar classes with an accomplished teacher, I just practiced with too little direction and in some way I still need to be told what to do ;-) So perhaps we should have a thread that will catch more people's attention for the chat thing?? I'm going to whip out some instructions for paltalk for those of you who never tried it yet if that's called for... so long ace Quote Link to comment
