If you look on the forum homepage you will see a mobile phone shoutbox that's been added.

Feel free to use it, but please read the TERMS on it before doing it... it will charge you 50p

There's some other phone updates soon being added, so watch this space.

[Lauren]

I shouted.

Rawr.

Thanks for the addition Mark.

[Nicky.]

oo looks good!

I will text in soon!

I already have about £2 topped on my bill for this month from XF voting.. so I will wait a few days so it goes on my next bill and nobody will notice!

[Matt]

I think it's an extremely pointless addition.

It's also a complete waste of money to text in considering anyone can post any message they like in the forum below - which will appear instantly - for nothing.

[Mark]

Then don't use it

edit: Also the shoutbox appears on the new TIBB Homepage, as well as here.

[Sam!]

Why the hell would you spend 50p when you can easily talk in here for free :| I have better things to spend my money on cheers lol.

Btw the frontpage needs updating :P. More important me thinks.

[Fom]

Very stupid addition

[Sam!]

It's pretty cool how the text gets to the homepage though lol

Well I like it!
*texts*

[Spike]

I don't like the idea, I think its pointless wasting money when you can just post instead

[Z]

I hope TiBB gets some kind of profit out of the shoutbox? If so, good addition! If not... why not?

[Annie]

Wasted money too!

[Mark]

I'm not forcing people to use it!

(not yet anyway ) *cracks whip*

Ahhh it just occured to me.. can you see peoples phone numbers?

[Mark]

Yeah, but they get deleted from as soon as your message appears on the shoutbox. If you click TERMS it says that we don't sell/post your number... only the last 3 digits

[Brekkie]

Stupid money making scheme - even BBLB and Big Mouth charge no more than 12p a message.

On the plus side though, really like the new Celeb BB theme - which makes a change.

[Mark]

I'd say theres 75% chance I LOSE money from it. Heavy costs to use that number, and the fact networks take a huge chunk for every message. I did originally set it up at 25p, but that meant for every person txting in I lost money.

Like I said before, if you don't like it don't use it. It's only a bit of fun

[Annie]

Mark dont worry I will give you money!! ha

If Mark was making money from it then it would probably help to pay towards the running costs of the website.

[Mark]

You tell him!

[pinkmichk]

i think its a bit of a daft idea espically as i go on some forums and they have the shout box but you dont pay owt

[Jen]

Cashing in are we Mark.?
