Good or bad?

I personally liked it on the right so that I could see who was on no matter what page I was at. I also wonder if it is displaying those currently on the Home or all throughout the site? It seems like there are significantly less avatars when I check it.

*edit* I am backwards! Fixed.

I think there was some issue with people not being able to surf anonymously, because the chat was on every page. I personally agree - I liked it better on every page, but it would have to come with an "off" button for people who want to be left in peace.
It kind of did though, you could just leave it alone so it went "to sleep" and not "wake up"? Though it probably should have an off button.
O.k. I'll ask, where is the popup chat now? I haven't seen it since the ads showed up.
its on the "Home" page, upper lefthand corner.
I've got a couple of observations about chat:

1. I tend to have several nexus pages open in different tabs, which I imagine would upset pop-up chat.

2. I tend to open chat in a tab.

3. There is usually nobody there - people drift in say "hello"?, find it's empty and leave. sometimes seconds apart.

What would help is a count of the number of people in the chat room under the list of who's on-line.

Also some sort of cue - a beep, or change in the tab title if there's a post or someone arrives.

Does any of this sound doable?
I'm going to second the "cue" request. It's the main reason I have trouble maintaining conversations with people in chat, and sometimes just leave them hanging (sorry if I've done that to anyone). If I'm even remotely distracted, I don't even bother going there anymore, even though I'd like to.
I've made people leave by posting a link. If they click on it - whoosh - they leave the forum.
