Have installed a simple hack that allows you to instant messenge right from our AC board using our own software (you dont need yahoo, AIM, ICQ or any of that.)

You can launch the window here:
http://www.authentic-campaigner.com/forum/bbmessenger/index.php

Click where it says "Click here to Launch BB|Messenger. (javascript:void(0))"

People you want to message do need to be on your AC buddies list however. To add someone to your buddies list, go into their user profile and you should find a link (right under their avatar if they have one) to add that user to your buddy list.

Unfortunately this isn't full-blown chat, just a one on one thing I'm testing. If it proves useful we might make it permanent.

Please don't annoy other forum members with it however.

Also, if you have popup blockers installed you'll need to disable them to get this to run.

Aww man, why couldn't we have had this when Stebby was around.?
That would have saved a lot of headaches!

This is actually very cool.

I like it--however I am wondering if there's a shortcut somewhere else to it besides going to this thread and clicking on the link?

There will be, just haven't had enough time to plug it in anywhere yet.

Completely understandable, I just wasn't sure if I was missing something. I'll look forward to it...great work with it all!
