Do you think a non-support Java chat applet is a good idea?

Hey guys I'm a noob but I'm starting to love this community.Only thing is you kinda get burnt out helping people in posts with no real interaction.
What do you all think of having two chat applets?
One ,lets call it "I'm free", for seeking help with a problem from other troubleshooters if,for example,you've run out of ideas and feel there's so many replies other people will skip the thread assuming it's resolved.Perhaps a minimum post limit to gain access to ensure only genuine people are entering it and it's not open to people who join looking for a free live troubleshooting service.I realize this will rule me out for some time but I'll catch up eventually
Two,call it "the techies lounge", just to have open while you help people troubleshoot so you can have a chat and a laugh at the same time and don't become frazzled from over-working on the threads with no human interaction

Haven't you ever heard of Gabbly? Simply place gabbly.com in front of any URL, and a window floats over the website that you can use to chat to any people currently viewing the website. For example...
gabbly.com/daniweb.com
