We always appreciate suggestions however this one has been mentioned before:
Msn-like service on the Forums

You do have the facility of Private Messaging or of course external messaging services such as MSN, Yahoo, Skype etc.

I would agree not to have one also, as then it would be hard to monitor.

I think it's a bad idea too. People will be trying to sell through it and it would be so much harder to moderate than a conventional forum.

Your a few months to late with your response.

lol @ Greedyboys comment.

Well, Its not a bad idea in terms of people could chat and get things sorted faster, but I see why it could be bad.

Maybe is only registered sellers could talk to other registered sellers and forum members, but forum members couldn't talk to each other ?? That would stop selling....... maybe thats too complicated though

If you wanted to chat with someone in particular on the forum you could always use an instant messaging program such as ICQ or Yahoo Messenger .
