Am I the only one here that uses the FReeper Beeper? I am totally dependent on it. If I don't get pinged, I don't tend to check my comments page. The problem is, you can have 100 posts to you from other forums, general interest, religion, backroom....whatever, and never realize it. If you don't routinely browse the other forums and you don't get pinged, for a fair amount of the time, they might as well not exist. That is why "chat" is thought of as a black hole.

What is this? I've lurked/posted here 4 years, and haven't heard of it.

I haven't read the rest of the replies but I think the pings work across forums... In other words it doesn't matter which forum you are in if you get a ping from any forum it will show up to you when you refresh the latest post page. If you click on it it will take you to the new post/reply no matter which forum it's in.... or that's my understanding
