The only tiny problem I have here is that you have to log into the main page. I go directly to the forum, and really only go to the main page when I know a video is up. I wish there was a way to skip that step.
Honestly, though, that's such a tiny thing, it's really a non-issue. "Oh, man! You're telling me I have to open ANOTHER window and type in my name! Shit! I'm done here." LOL.
Looks good, though! Can't wait to try it out in a big chat with the characters!

Yeah, I noticed that. The forums have a link to "Multi-User Chat", but when I click it, it says I have to login. However, I already am logged in from the main page (and clicked "remember me" so I don't have to login every time).silvermoon wrote:The only tiny problem I have here is that you have to log into the main page.

Other things I noticed: changing the font color and font only seems to change it for me, not for the text everyone else sees. And it doesn't seem to remember those settings... Minor issues!

Hmmm, not sure why this is happening...
I accessed the chat room via the forum, and it told me to go log in or register. So I clicked on the link on that page to go and log in. The main page, however, says that I am logged in. I had to log out of the main page, close everything down, go back and sign in on the main page and access the chat via the main page to get in.
So far, even when I have hit the "remember me" button on the main page log in, I am unable to get into chat through the forum link. I can only access it from the mainpage link.
Once you get in there, it does look great, though!

There's a thread in Concerns/Complaints about the new chat. The Creators popped in and asked us to start a thread with issues, concerns, questions, etc. Please post any issues you have there. Thanks!

A way to turn off the Dings you get when a message appears without muting the users on the microphones would make the service a lot better....
an example of this can be found at mingleville.com where they use the same chat engine.

All you need to do is quit the chat.. empty your cache and then log back into chat. the dings are gone and you can hear mics just fine
