There should be an IRC room so it'll be easier to get help since your question will be up for everyone to see. In forums, you have to hope that someone's in that board and spots your question.
I thought this was brought up before, I would like to see some form of chat on TF other than the ventrilo server being used I think that is piggybacked from ToV anyway.
So yes this gets my vote, but I hope it's not IRC never had look with it.
