i think what he means in like a separate part of the forum where all ppl online can make their own rooms or join others that can discuss a topic using instant messaging like on facebook where you can communicate with anyone online singly or just make a larger room.

Yes, and I mean, point me at an open source or cheap solution which I can implement.

Well it doesn't have to be like everyone gets there own chatroom. More like 1 big chatroom/I.M. for everyone on the app to just discuss and talk about Mtg or whatever. More personal way for the community here to become more of a community "per se" Take IRC type Chatrooms for example. A big open room where people gather to talk. Except that implemented maybe into the app main menu  like where Gathering, Database, etc.. that part of the menu.

Indeed. Would be among the best tools on the app. Say i was at a FNM where wifi was nearby (On my touch) :D. I wanted to ask a quick question without making a forum post. I could just ask the chatroom and maybe get a quick answer. Or if i was bored and wanted to chat with others (The more common use) Chatrooms are always very popular with communities so thats why i just had to share the idea.....if i had any coding knowledge for the "idevices" i would share but i know about 2 months worth of C++ and i forgot it about a year ago XD
