Ill highlight as much as I can think off below, if anyone has any particular questions please post in this sticky, and ill answer the questions in this top post. Hopefully this will avoid the hundred million chatroom threads! smile

To those who get the â€œYou have been disconnectedâ€ message when they try to join:
The chatroom has a current capacity of 250ish users. We are adding capacity within the next few days, to bring this to 500 users, should this not be enough we will keep increasing until we have enough capacity. If you try to join and the room is at capacity, then it will say â€œYou have been disconnectedâ€. As I say, this should be non existent in a few days time. This should have been done last week, but there have been complications out of our control (a bug in Macromedias software that they are working to fix).
With this increase in capacity, the cam quality will also increase, apologies for how it is now, it is necessary to keep it as low as possible to allow more people into the room.
A new version of the chatroom is also on its way, this will cater for a â€œNo camsâ€ room, where cams will be disabled. A lets meet up room, for people who like to ask â€œany one near londonâ€, every 30 seconds. :) And of course the general lobby.
View user profile, and view user pics feature will also be added with this release.
Thatâ€™s as much as I can think off, questions below !
Cheers,
Elliot.

Everytime I attempt to log in to the chatroom, I get a greyed out Server 2 with not buttons working. So I have to close it, wait 5 mins and try again.
Is there no chance of me trying to log in and get 1 or 3 instead, only this is my 3 rd attempt now and I'm a bit mad

It's happened before but not 3 times in a row. confused

This mornong I have tried to log into the chat room only to be told that the authourisation has failed because I am alredy logged in.
I logged out of Sh completeley for 10 mins tried again and got the same message.
Please help

Perhaps you are still in a room somewhere? Did you log out correctly last time you were on?
Not saying this is the case her, but some members do not log out correctly each time they leave the site and leave their account open and idle in chat.
In such cases you will not be able to get back into chat, unless an op goes in and boots you out. You would then be able to log in again.
I'll go and have a look around for you ;-)

Just in case the info is of any use ... I just tried and went straight in to chat 2 ... no probs at all ..

Sever 2 hates me. :cry:
I switched from 1 to 2 and again, it was just all greyed out. Bet there's loads of people in there right now having untold fun!
edit: It's just happened again! Grrr! This time, logged into server 2 and it's grey.
I've just been informed there's a "cheat":
:gagged:
i haven't tried it yet but I'll let you know if it works.

29 Jun 2007

It works at the moment but we wouldn't want the details posted here.

29 Jun 2007

Ah ok! I'll just be smug and keep it to myself then! lol

ok, after several days of trying to get into the chatrooms I give up - from various threads in the forum it seems people are having problems getting in but would be nice to have been told if there is actually a problem.

There have been a few issues with server 2 runtie, but it all seems to be working ok now..
How you tried clearing your cache to see if that helps?

30 Jun 2007

Thanks for your reply, i had already tried that and it didnt help.
I had recently installed realplayer though so i uninstalled it and i now seem to be able to get into the chatroom - strange!

This happens to me more often than not. When I do get in and try and change servers, more often than not the same things happens again. Annoying or what? :cry:
