mIRC Chat anyone?; A live chat

So I was browsing through the forums and noticed there's no chat save the shout box below. Personally, I like chatting with others and getting to know the community more as I lurk the forums.

So I'm pitching the idea of using mibbit to create a chatroom for riddikulus. I think it would help a lot of new members find their way around. To elaborate plots, or even chatting for chatting sake.

What do you guys think?

I can be of assistance in setting this up and it can be put into a link somewhere for people to access. It'll pop up as an extra window, or tab depending on your browser's preference. It uses the program Java. It's relatively safe, and easily maintainable.

Bump w/ information.

After some configuration, and what not I am now able to produce a link people can click on to view the chat room. It might be a little buggy at first since it's my first time doing one, but please feel free to check it out.

Alternate mIRC link for #riddikulus

Personally I really don't like mIRC chatrooms, and I don't think we really need one? I dunno, I just don't see why we can't use the shoutbox at the bottom.

I don't mean we should get rid of shout box for mibbit. I think mibbit just makes it easier as a collective for new people to come in, people to gather chat, or talk in general.

With mibbit there's no extra program to download--it just loads up in another tab, or new window.

Plus the shout box seems to only be on the home page/index and it's not anywhere else.
