History Main / ShoutBox

* [[http://www.myshoutbox.com/ MYSHOUTBOX]] (seriously, they put it in all caps like that) is used by ''[[http://www.juathuur.spiderforest.com/ Juathuur]]''.

* ''Webcomic/FriendshipIsDragons'' has one, that has become something of a friendly community for discussing RPGs rather than the comic itself. The author cites it as his inspiration for continuing the strip.

* ''AlienDice' uses one for comics and newsposts, even though it does have a forum.
* ''BeyondReality'' has bot one of these and a forum.

* Users of {{deviantART}} who subscribe have the option to put a shoutbox with any journal they post.

* BearAndKitten had a very avid fanbase that actively posted in their shoutbox. Oddly enough, even though the webcomic hasn't update in almost a year now, the fans still post in the shoutbox because they actually became a close knit group of friends. Seemingly forgetting that they even came to the website for the comic.

* Conversely, BizarreUprising's shoutbox has consisted primarily of complaints of TheyChangedItNowItSucks vis-a-vis the TimeSkip.
* ''PlanetZebeth'' uses one as well.
* ''Webcomic/{{The Monster and The Girl}}'' has a shoutbox arranged that a message on one comic page is seen on all the comic pages.
* FriendshipIsDragons has one, that has become something of a friendly community for discussing RPGs rather than the comic itself. The author cites it as his inspiration for continuing the strip.

Many {{webcomics}} don't have a large enough community to support a full-size, separate message board. A ShoutBox is one way to provide easy, highly-visible interactivity.

* ''DreamCatcher'' uses one.

* Tom Siddell of ''Webcomic/GunnerkriggCourt'' used the home-encoded comment thread for PaintingTheMedium during the interim comic ''City Face'': instead of displaying RealLife reader comments, it displayed comments from the AnimatedActors and other in-universe characters reading the [[ShowWithinAShow comic within the comic]]. They're archived [[http://gunnerkrigg.wikia.com/wiki/City_Face_comments here]].

* Tom Siddell of ''Webcomic/GunnerkriggCourt'' used the home-encoded comment thread for PaintingTheFourthWall during the interim comic ''City Face'': instead of displaying RealLife reader comments, it displayed comments from the AnimatedActors and other in-universe characters reading the [[ShowWithinAShow comic within the comic]].
