Yeah fine. But it needs to be optional, some way to turn it off in preferences. I hate the damned things myself.

Just look at the Mockup. It should be a pull out tab where only people who want to see it can see it at all times. Just like we can have a chatbox already in the main site which is optional why can't we have a trollbox?

On the main OpenLedger site they use Tawk.to yet for the Exchange people are worried about security? I don't get it. If there is a security issue using javascript then it would already be an issue and no I don't think we should delay implementation in order to do a fancy technical blockchain based version.

We should just throw any trollbox together temporarily, as quickly as possible, and then when the technically advanced version is ready we can simply swap it out for the updated one. What do you think every other exchange website would do in this situation?

I've traded for years and the trollbox is good for realtime info,  this forum is too slow for sharing trading info, even if its fud it still helps build the community.

Can somebody quickly knock up a website that iframes a troll box on the right side and openledger on the left.

even if its just polos troll box

I'd certainly like to put one in but we need to find a safe way of doing it.

What do you mean by safe? I don't see what safety risk you have from IRC that you don't have already.

Btw, the mock up that he put up is exactly where the troll box ought to be placed. That is exactly how it ought to look and it doesn't even have to be fancy at first.

Can one of the designers (Val?) let us know if a trollbox is planned / on the todo list?

A trollbox really does make an exchange look active and helps to build up a userbase.
