Post by: GamePersia on August 20, 2014, 04:46:18 AM

Please add a nice feature in sp shoutbox.
a feature like "xxxx is typing" (xxxx other name of person chatting in shoulbox)

That works well in a single person to person chat box like Facebook, but in a shoutbox with many people online it could be too much to display (?).

Also, it would mean a script continually checking everyone and updating each browser. That would be strain on cheap servers.
