Possible Chatroom Replacements
« on: October 18, 2006, 12:47:16 AM »

I've been investigating chatrooms to replace the existing one, which isn't working for everyone.  It's tougher than I thought to find non-applet chatrooms that don't have an annoying ajax flicker.

For those of you that chat, do either of these work for you?

Chatroom #1
http://www.golfhos.com/chat/
(this keeps disconnecting on me)

Chatroom #2
http://www.sterryit.com/chat/
(if this works, I'll install it here)

The first one wasn't working for me at home last night, but it's working today on my work machine. Smiley

hmm, I made some changes, but I forgot to disable "show disconnect notifications".

That setting is disabled now, but it might be cached.  I was running into that problem last night.  I had to close all instances of Firefox and try again for it to work. Dunno

For now, the chatroom only displays the dilbermc theme, any iconoclasts using other themes will have to suffer.

Grr, the chatroom has a bug in it where the list of users isn't being displayed.  I've got meetings all day, but will work on it more later.

Oh no!  This is broken again.  People in the chatroom aren't getting listed anymore.
