We are always looking for new ways for our site members to connect with each other. The focus of our site is written comment and debate, but occasionally we like to offer more immediate conversation.
WebbyChat's event scheduling makes this very easy for us and we find that chatting encourages Whedonesque's lurkers to participate.

General Features |

||
| Grouping Abilities By simply passing a special variable to our script, you can group people dynamically into unique chat rooms throughout your site. |
||
| Works Behind Most Firewalls Our system is smart enough to handle visitors even behind pesky firewalls. |
||
| Automatic Room Spill To handle very large site, we've created a means to automatically create new rooms if old ones become "full". You can set the "full" level for rooms on your site. If your room goes over this limit, new chatters will be placed into a new room automatically. |
||
| Play the Drums You will have the ability to play several drum sounds that all users in the room can hear. You can also give out this ability to users of your choice! |
||
| Whistles If someone says your name in the chat window you'll hear an audible whistle, and your name will be highlighted. |
||
| Room Notification You can enable/disable room notification. This will alert you when a user enters or leaves your room by an audible doorbell & door shutting sound. |
||
Moderation Features |
||
| Kick Users With just one click you can kick people out of your room. |
||
| Ban Users Ban a user to permanently remove their IP from the system. You can unban any time. |
||
| Silent Insanity Why should the bad guys have all the fun? If someone is really giving you a hard time you can use Silent Insanity on them. They'll keep talking, but no one else will hear them! |
||
| Scry You can see the current URL that the user is on. The URL will also update as they move around your site. |
||
| Set Message of The Day The message of the day is a little note that appears at the top of the chat window. What neat about our message of the day, is that you can change it in real time, and all the users in the room will see it fade in with the new message. A great feature for getting a quick message out to everyone in the room, without having to repeat it. |
||
| Freeze Room Is a room getting out of control? Just freeze it and only moderators will be able to talk. You can control who is a moderator at any time. |
||
| Ring Bell Another crowd pleaser. Ring the bell and all users (who are not muting sounds) will hear a ding, ding, ding. This is great for events to alert people that something has started. |
||
Administration Features |
||
| Grant Moderator Powers You can grant and ungrant ANY of the moderation features listed above to any user in your room. |
||
| Immunity to Kick & Ban Don't worry about getting kicked or banned by an unruly moderator. You're immune! |

| Change Room Size You can set the maximum number of people that can fit in any room on your site. It a room fills up, a new room will be created and the user will be placed in the new room automatically. |
||
| Event Scheduling You can schedule events and have our chat system automatically show or hide based on event times. We also give you the ability to create recurring events, and offer a handy dandy event countdown widget. |
||
| Delete Messages in Real-Time With WebbyChat you can delete a user's message from the chat log in real-time. Just login as a room administrator and type /delete. You can then pick the message to delete and, upon confirmation, all users in the room will see the message vanish instantly! |

| Clear Chat Log / History To make things easier for your users, as they navigate from page to page the chat history will update to reflect any messages they may have missed while browsing. You can clear this log at any time & in real-time. |
