I'm not sure how it can be fixed when a chatroom gets too popular. I guess it's just evolution, but (in my opinion) it's not half as good as it used to be... feels very impersonal, very unfriendly, and on the whole, no longer fun.
Hope you can turn it around (the people who make it worthwhile going in at all).
It's not a criticism, and it'll be hard to see from the inside, but it's becoming cliquey!... get it sorted chaps.
/AK
p.s.
All in favour of the move for registered names only! if it were up to me, I'd make folk wait a while before their account was activated too! (just to annoy those makingaccounts up on the fly)
sorry but we have no problem getting in the chat room but we do find it goes aroung to fast
ched and maz :cheers:
HELP!
i dont supose anyone here knows how to set up ProxyPlus (a proxy/firewall program) to get mIrc to work on the net through a network?
anyone?
Hi,
Sorry if this has been covered by someone already: whenever i try & enter the chatroom i just get a 'connecting to server' message & nothing else. Would this be because i'm using a mac? Any advice appreciated.
Thank you, Jamie
jamie, it could be because your using a proxy server or a firewall maybe? as i had that error and im using a proxy/firewall
Hi Gav-n-Jess,
Thank you for the advice. I'm not using either of those, I also tried from another PC and still couldn't get on. Not techie enough to work it out but I'll keep trying, so maybe chat to you soon..

I registered for chat when I joined SH . I had no problem getting in to the chatroom on that occasion.
However, on every subsequent attempt to enter the chatroom I have been asked to register again.
Even though I noted the nickname and password that I initially used for chat, I am still unable to access this facility. :cry:
If you don't login for a certain period of time, your nickname becomes unregistered, so you'll have to go through the registration again.
Is it just me who cant get in tonight? I was in earlier and it stalled on me, got back in and it froze on me again?
Just me or everyone else too? lol
i m gonna swear
i tried to go into chat room and it said i had to be activated ummmm
ummmmm
i am ....i was
im fed up now
dont tell me ive got to re-sign up again with another user name
I am registered and have been in the room, but today i am having the same trouble. I dont know the answer to java script I am using aol and I am totally computer idiot. any help would be great thanks :cry:
Well I can connect, and chat, not now getting the partial connect and disconnect/reconnect thing that some seem to have (and I did for a while)....but I do have a little problem that maybe someone can shed light on.
I use both IE and Ozilla Firefox to browse, and they both seem to have this.
When I connect, start chatting (all fine so far) and then either after a few minutes or if I decide to scroll the user list up and down I get a very strange thing happening. The topmost post on the screen appears in the box I enter my text in, and also in the toolbar at the bottom of the screen, on the right hand side, where the little list if icons of currently running stuff goes.
It is still possible to post, but I can't see what I'm typing (which since my typing is pretty poor doesn't help much) and it's a tad annoying.
Anyone any clues/ideas?
Cheers
I used to have problems with the text going haywire on an old version of java. The only thing I can suggest is that you go to and download the latest version.
Failing that try using mIRC.

No problems here in chat, was in there earlier but I use mIRC
