Group chat contacts - self join - auto reinvite? by Webteam on 01-30-2008 at 08:42 PM

I have a small group of contacts that I would like to keep in a group chat.

I don't know of any way that they can individually join a messenger chat group session -- e.g., since they have to be invited by a existing member of the chat group.

However, I figure there has got to be a script out there that will reinvite a member that leaves the chat group or signs into msn and is not currently in the group chat ... if we had a host user on one of our servers running the script, it could just keep the group chat alive...

Does any one know of a script like this or another way this can be accomplished?

It might be possible to invite them when they sign onto msn if they're not on. But as for inviting them if they leave this wont be done simply, because if they leave they more then likely don't want to be in the conversation.. and would be quite annoying to get re-invited everytime they leave.

I could understand a Script such as allowing

Group Invite
Invite on Sign-In
Sync Invite.

More in-depth.

Group Invite
Invite all contact's in desired group to a chat.

Invite on Sign-In
Scan group for contact who signed in, if in the group that the chat is made for invite that person.

Sync Invite
Check current people in chat and compare to people in the group.. and invite people to the chat whom aren't already present..

Or the easy way you could make a quick text with settings similar to this:

Fast Send Shortcut(I Chose Ctrl+0) but you can choose anything.

Message(s):
/invite *email*
/invite *email*
/invite *email*

etc...

Line Breaks: Create multiple messages.

Change *email* to a contact's email.

Then simply make a line break for how ever many people you'll be wanting to be in this chat everytime you hit the shortcut to activate the quick text.

Thanks for the response -- I will explore those options.

I know I can easily invite a whole group by right clicking on the group -- that's pretty nice. But I just made a quick-text -- I love that one -- if I'm there, I'll be using that now :-)

I even made scripts using the UNeed AI -- so I can use simple keywords to invite them ... but it was one at a time :-) And I couldn't find 1 command to invite the whole group.

This is a work group team -- I wish they could just sign themselves in each time they logged in -- I'm not always available to make sure the group chat is maintained properly -- so communication is shared with the whole team.

I think what I'm looking for is a "CHAT ROOM" that uses MSN as the client :-)

Thank you so much for your ideas -- I'll continue to explore.
