Most members of Osbot use the client daily but never post anything on the forums.
They come online to check the script section and that's it. (If they even come online).
I was thinking about some kind of live-feed from the forum and a live chatbox.
more about this later.
How would it look like?
There could be a left or right bar with the ability to hide it for those who don't like it.
Orion/osbuddy has something similar with live tweets from Jagex.
Live chatbox bar: Members can use the chatbox direct over the client.
Live Forums feed: Members see the newest post or topic (they could change the settings), to comment or interact they could either do it directly over the client, or over a pop up button to open the forums. (Not sure what is better depending the programming).
What is the sense of this?
- We all want to welcome more active members to the forums don't we?
This is a great way to animate people to become more active and interested in the forums.
- Osbot would be the first runescape client with an in build chat function connected to the forums.
- Word in mouth marketing.
What speaks against it (user site) ?
Nothing, if you don't like it you can minimize it.
What speaks against it (developers) ?
I have no idea how much work this is so I can't answer this part.
What speaks against it (Moderators) ? More work, I am pretty sure every mod would welcome more active members though!
