I believe that by setting the Shoutbox's default position to be at the top of the page instead of the bottom, it'd give a better view to new-comers as of what this community looks like.
Pros/Cons/Abstentions?



None.

We should hide that mess of shit at all costs to not scare newcomers away. In fact, maybe it should start off hidden in a corner in a collapse box behind another feature so you never see it ever until someone PM's you about it.

P.S. Our spambox chat channels are were superior to battle.net 2.0's lololol

I believe we shouldn't fool new comers and let them know what they're getting into. :sly:

I disagree. For one thing, having people see the Shoutbox as a representation of our community is a bad thing. Sure, we have the occasional relevant question or topic, but a majority of the time it is just a huge off-topic chatroom full of H and wincest.

But seriously, this isn't going to be changed.

Special ed, yes. We certainly have a community here, no one has ever doubted that. Putting the Shoutbox on top wont have the effect you are looking for, though.

Why would you put it at the top? That would completely ruin the flow of the website for the majority of users who don't use it. Its an auxiliary function; it belongs at the bottom.

-edit-lol, didn't read the op enough.

I don't like the shoutbox at the top ... Not only does it take up a lot of precious space at the top, but it distracts a lot from the content in the page.

so it can be beaten by a prepared pro, even in macro games, if only barely. the muta micro in particular seems really hard to handle for protoss ground though. In the open goons can't catch them, in the base they trip over buildings, it just instantly flies out of storms and they fly circles around archons. Mass cannons do work, but can't cover the whole map with it. Probably need mass corsair to counter and hope you can outmaneuver all the scourge.
