Ben, have you ever given any thought to having a real time chat for agencies ? If you dont understand what I mean, let me see if I can explain it. I play another game called Everquest. For those of you that aren't familiar with it, it is a real time MMORPG. In EQ, we have guilds that are much like the agencies here and when we are online in EQ we are tapped into something called "Guild Chat". It is a channel (for lack of a better word) where all of our guild mates can talk to each other at the same time. It's like being in a chat room on MSN IM or Hotmail IM, etc.
I dont know what kind of programming this game is made from, so, in turn, I dont know if what I am suggesting is even feasible here. But, I thought I would throw the suggestion out here and see what kind of response I get.

Well I agree with Sweet, Celeste and Layne. It would be great! But I also agree with Dudgeon, we are demanding.
If you want to chat with your agency members, you could set it up using one of the existing IM services.
A game wide chatroom does seem to be missed by some. I don't know if I would make use of it though. I like the message boards.

It doesn't matter to me what Ben decides to do, however I do agree we are asking too much of him for the price we're paying. Even I have suggested things that's not needed. In our agency we chat on MSN together, while solving cases, which works fine. Only if it's cost worthy for Ben, then it would be great.
