Suggestion : Multiple conversation with same person on same window by ZeXr0 on 12-05-2007 at 09:16 PM

Hi, I'm new to this board.

I find myself often talking about two different subject at the same time.
And we made a sort of convention to talk like this :

Conversation 1 :
Have you been to place X

Conversation 2 :
(Have you talked to person Y)

So we mostly talk about two and even three different subject at the same time.
It would be nice if the window could be split in two or more part, to be able to have multiple conversation at the same time.

I don't know if you understand what I mean, but I think it could be a nice feature.

Could be useful to show some code and comment on two separate part of the window in the same window.

It could be made with a convention like [Conv1]Text1
[Conv2]Text2

Etc...

seems a bit overcomplicated and quite possibly impossible to implement

most people are competent enough as conversation to be able to distinguish between replies to certain questions

or if necessary just speak about the one thing, and then remember the second for later if you have trouble talking about more than one thing at once

or if you want to have the two conversations, use the Plus! feature to change text colour or style as you type

"[ b]" "[ /b]" tags will bold the text or you could use italics, different colours, etc
