The Shoutbox
Ok, I'll change the refresh thing to 120 seconds. Hyper: yes, this is a 100% custom hack, except for the name. I blatantly stole the name from vBulletin.org. And no, no way to edit it...that's the point really: it's sort of like a chat room. BTW, it just caught me in the middle of posting, too, but I just hit the back button.
Can't edit previous shots...

Auto-refresh to at least 2 minutes. It's now caught me in the middle of posting something 3 times.
And while I'm thinking about it, is there a way to edit your previous shouts?
Chris, is this your own custom hack or what? I like it!
FYI: I'm gonna put the most recent Shout on the mainpage or something...that might get people more involved. We'll see.
No, the auto-refresh is still on. Is it really all that annoying? Can I lengthen it to appease you, perhaps?
I guess nobody likes using this little thing. Shame shame, and it's so much fun to use.
Did you take the bloody auto-refresh off? It's a little annoying.
HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!
Yeah, I dig it. It displays the last 15 Shouts, if I'm remembering correctly. It's a small feature, but I figured it would be useful. I still have no use for the subject field...I'll have to remove that, I suppose.
This is kind of cool.
