That is unless sparky makes the shoutbox for members only.

Thats the thing about a shout-box anybody can post in it. There's nothing Sparky could do about that except make every member of the board an Admin of thing and change the posting to 'Admin Only' which probably wouldn't be a great idea.

Not true, not true. I just checked on the other forum I'm on and when I'm just a guest the shout-box doesn't even show up on my screen. Not to mention I only see members posting in it and, that forum does have it's um.... unwanted if ya know what I mean.

Well you beat me to it kinda ;D. But there is a code you can insert into the shout box to make it show up to certain people. Although I still agree with Tac they are most of the time more trouble than they're worth.

This shoutbox IS for members only correct? Well, this is a proboards forum. There is a limit as to what can be added. Are those other forums you're talking about proboards?

How am I supposed to know something so insignificant?

It's not 'insignificant' in the least. Certain forum hosting services COME with an integrated Shoutbox which the Admin has more control of than if it was just installed using codes.
Proboards only supports the add-on chat room Sparky can do what he wants with it. But a shoutbox comes from a completely different host it is difficult to maintain, and Proboards doesn't offer support for problems caused by it they say themselves use a shout-box at YOUR own risk.

I don't know what a shoutbox is, but I don't think I'd want to see one.

I know they're proboards as well, I've seen one on Nuke's proboards where he's got a shoutbox on there.
