(How To) Use Fubar's Tooltips / Chatbox

Fubar has always used hover-able menus (currently known as Tooltips) since the dawn of the first member (back when the site was first named LostCherry (ask members with an early user-number how LostCherry came about. There is three different types of Tooltips (Profile(Non-VIP/VIP) Tooltip, Profile(VIP+1) Tooltip and the Lounge Tooltip) on fubar and each Tooltip gives information that is sufficient for the member to use.

Its no secret Fubar.com is an always growing site.

Below is what the two traditional Profile Tooltips styles on Fubar will look like when you (the member) hover another members name. Some of the features have been disabled do to security risk (ie. Java script and Submit/Cancel Buttons). Since there is two types of profile tooltips I will try my best to showcase two different members.

Profile Tooltips

This is an example of what Agg's Tooltip will look like.

For members who decide to buy a VIP and get to experience the VIP+ benefits
get to choose some spiffy tooltip backgrounds identical to the ones shown below

Below is a mock up of the Extended ChatBox Webpage Fubar is using and a conversation with Scrapper with a fubar member. IN this its given general idea of what the Shoutbox window is and how to access it. Many Members don't know there is a webpage for the shoutbox and to access the page all you have to do is hover the users picture (if on shoutbox click name) and click the little image that looks like ⇒ shout_img ⇐. Once this image is clicked it will begin loading an External window that will reveal what is below but without the words (unless you've shouted the member before). If you have any questions or comments you can shoutbox or message anyone of the Fubar Bouncers and they will assist youi with any of your questions

SCRAPPER: Can I speak to you for a sec?
Fubar_Member: Whats Up Dude??
SCRAPPER: Mind if I bug you for a second and explain what the Tooltip(Chatbox) is?
Fubar_Member: Sure
SCRAPPER: Well let me start by saying when a member first signs up for Fubar they get a welcome message from babyjesus welcoming them to the site.
SCRAPPER: The Shoutbox is used as a Private Messenger(IM CHAT) between two members. It is better to use the chatbox and talk to someone than it would be to send them a private message and not be answered for days upon days.
Fubar_Member: Can you explain how a member uses the Chatbox??
SCRAPPER: Sure. All a member has to do is go find someone they wanna talk to privately they can either hover their mouse pointer over a members name / primary_image, when the tooltip(extra_window) loads they just have to type in the input box on the bottom and click send / hit the enter/return key and that shout send their message. or they can click the image that looks like a megaphone and that will open a seperate larger window.
SCRAPPER: Also if they want to have a direct shout page so they don't have to keep clicking the users name to open a tooltip a member can click on the image that looks like a megaphone in the pertaining members tooltip and that will open a seperate larger window(as shown here).
Fubar_Member: In your view which one would be better the Shoutbox or The Private Message System??
SCRAPPER: Both are great features.. The only downside to them both is when the chatbox gets a significant amount of members chatting the content tends to scroll out of the box, but to get the message back all they have to do is find the member again and when the tooltip shows click the megaphone. As for private message that feature is mainly used for long term use. Most members will get their previous chat back (unless they or the other member clears their shoutbox). The Private Message System has a capacity of 25 messages per page, after the 25 message it creates a new page with the same function.
Fubar_Member: How many Chatboxes are there??.
SCRAPPER: There is two currently in commission. One is the little fixedtipdiv(commonly called Tooltip) on every webpage while the other is an external window(as shown here).
SCRAPPER: Well Hope this has been insighting
Fubar_Member: Yes it has Thankyou
SCRAPPER: Have a good day..
