The MGC Chatbox Evo is really easy to use

You can :
  1. Send chats : you just have to enter the text in the dedicated input field and then to validate it by pushing the return key ou by clicking on the OK button.
  2. Format the chats :
  3. once you un-collapse the chatbox formatting toolbar by clicking on the BBCode button, you have access to different formatting options for your chats. You can format a chat by selecting a part (or the totality) of it and then select one of the buttons/list. You can also add empty formatting tags by selecting nothing and clicking one of the buttons/menu thus allowing you to add the chat text afterwards between these tags.*
  4. Access to the different channels : you can have access to different channels restricted to only some usergroupds or for specifics use of the chatbox. The different channels are accessible from the buttons on the left of the chatbox.*
  5. Edit your chats (or others chats) : the edition of a chat can be done by a simple double-click on it.*
  6. Use specific commands : some commands can be accessible in the chatbox depending on the will of the administrator(s) of your forum. These commands let you execute specific actions of formatting, management, etc... You will herebelow the information on the command which are accessible to you. You must notice that you are not forced to use the command prefixes (/command_name) when you use them in the channel they are attached to (except in the general channel).*
* : Depending on the settings chosen by the administrator(s) of the forum, you might not have access to all these features.

    Default New Shoutbox 2.0 -- Public Feedback

    Ken opened up the new potential shoutbox for public testing this afternoon. You can access it by just going to the front page of vgevo.com and looking under the original shoutbox.

    What do you think? Pros? Cons? Give us your feedback please. Thanks!

    Woo! New features!

    It's definitely nice to have the buttons now to insert elements as opposed to just knowing the code to do em, so I like that, and also that you can hide that bar if you want.

    I think the background color should be changed to white to make text more legible, and if you still want to use grey as a bg color, maybe try it in the bar above the chatbox.

    Also- what does the email icon do?

    I love it thus far. Especially slapping people, or yourself, with a large trout.

    Its certainyl improved. I just think you guys have given it too many features. For example, whats the point of having the ability to change text and font so easily? Why not just put them in a little options tab in the corner?

    I do like it, I just think it needs to be minimised a bit, there are far too many buttons currently on it in my opinion, and with so many buttons, it won't easily replace the original shoutbox at the top of every other page.

    Switching between channels, or any time you have to load the new chatbox it seems to be alot slower for the chat to appear than the old chatbox.
