too bad we can't get notifications by email when people are in the chatroom. this way if you wanted to chat you could, plus i think it would encourage more people to try it out :)

[Master of Blades]

I'm in the chatroom now if anyone wants to bother and check it out.....it has been WAY too quiet recently :(

The problem is, it would generate a LOT! of email, and possibly cause some problems.

We are working on a way to make the chatroom traffic more obvious on the forum.

[Shinzu]

agreed kaith. the chat room is a great idea and we need to get more people involved. i would like to help out in any way i could :)

[Master of Blades]

I'm thinking.......Couldnt you somehow below the "Whos online" thingy........couldnt you have a little thing saying whos in the chatroom etc? :asian:

[arnisador]

If you go the chat page you can click on the number of people chatting then it pops up a small window with a list of who is chatting.

Theres a way to do it, but its a PITA to impliment. We're looking into something like that at some point.

Yeah but that means going to the chatroom.......and at the moment the problem is not many people do. However if the thing telling you is ON THE FORUMS......I'm pretty sure it would encourage more people to go in :asian:

Joe,

You mean you do not run a dual monitor system? I do, and one monitor has the chatroom up and going and the other has the forum or other sites I am looking at.

It is easy for me. How come it is not easy for you ? :D :rofl:

Quite a few reasons Rich.....Let me explain :D

A) I have a 6 or 7 yr old IBM Aptiva

B) I use AOL which doesnt support the Chatroom....meaning I have to open Internet Explorer AS WELL which really slows down my downloading and occasionally causes my computer to freeze

C) Windows 95 -_-'

It is easy......but to do that would be logical.....and why would I want to be logical :D

Logic from my English Cousin? How dare you talk like that. Kaith where is the Soap?
:rofl:

[Master of Blades]

Hey my PC is GHETTO, thats the word were using, GHETTO! So dont be hating y'all!

And Rich I didnt realise Detroit was in Michigan.......thats why you were laughing at the Sixers :p

[Master of Blades]

Oh yeah did I say I had Microsoft Windows 95 PLUS edition.......:roflmao:

[Elfan]

MOB seriously drop AOL. Its horrible. If not I suggest you "downgrade" to the oldest version they still support and use it only to connect to the internet and use another browser for browsing. AOL is a BIG system eater and since you are using an old computer that might help you out.

[MartialArtist]

Build your own computer systems, save hundreds of $$$

[Kempojujutsu]

I can't get on the chat room. When logging in it will not take my full user name. 2 letters short. It tells me to register. When I try it tells me that user name is taken? Help anyone?
Bob :asian:

[Bob Hubbard]

ok...sounds like a bug...more likely it lets you create a name at Y length, but only lets X length logon....hope that makes sence.

We will look into it.:asian:
