Folks,
Several of us have expressed an interest in seeing the chat run down the side of the site again....namely myself, sarbear, son, and Clem.
Anyone else have similar feelings? Oh, and please don't think we are complaining here...Jeric +mods: This site is awesome. Love the work you guys are doing. Keep up the great work!

Cal, I agree. Although my workplace is rather laid back, I like to keep the appearance of being busy and having the chat bar on my history is probably not conducive to that appearance.
Thanks JERIC! The site looks good so far.

You pretend to work. They pretend to pay you, eh?

Ouch! Score one for Sensei.
In defense of my appearance of work and pay, it is not so much that I am avoiding work to chat than I don't have any work or the work I am doing is mundane. In fact, I think I would have gone mad by now if there wasn't such a thing as the internet and www.

Is it possible to have it as a single window as well like the old one ? I find it easier to hide on my screen.

'past shouts' take care of that, but you know that already ;-) |

So what are the "bugs" in the new chat? Don't you like that only members that are logged in can use it?

Perhaps "Past Shouts" can be reworded as "New Window". |

First of all the regulars dont like new things. So removing the old chat is a good solution :-)
Problem is that when the screen refreshes (every 30 seconds) De message window looses the focus, which makes entering a message quite annoying.
Personally I don't like the word 'shout' Could you change that to 'chat'? But I love the system in general, trolls can now be dealt with. |

Apart from the refresh problem, it is great. Better than the old one.
