Sarcasm is a pointless waste of time on the internet as the tone that you speak with is not carried into the text.
I detected it actually ;p
As for live chat I've never been a fan of them on forum boards as it takes away from the board activity personally. However I do install some sort of chat/chatbox for my admins/mods. It tends to spend up the work flow if one is not able to get on skype/vent.
