Hey guys,

Chat has gone down again. I know this is a free site and all but chat provides a great network of support for members here and it being down so much means those members who frequent it are starting to look for other means to keep in touch. The frustration levels with the chat room going down every few days is pretty high.

Also cams haven't work in there in ages. They worked for a little bit (a few hours) on Friday night US time but now they're not working again.

Is it possible for you to at least let us know what the issue is and why it keeps re-occuring?? Should we be reporting it whenever Chat goes down? I just think if we were kept informed of the issue and when things might get resolved there wouldn't be as much frustration around the place about it.

I understand forums have glitches that need to be worked out. But I guess I'm hoping just to be told what's going on and/or when it'll be fixed and stable again.

Looking forward to a reply.

But it's not. I will check again tomorrow, but right now I am on page 6 and there are posts from this afternoon and last night on the same page.

Hello,

After further research, I have determined that the issue is related to a bug, rather than a misconfiguration of services.

I'll get back with an ETA for a fix shortly.

Thanks,

Ken

Thank you.

Can somone please tell me how to get into the chat rooms. When I click on CHAT, I get a blank screen. I've never been able to get in.

I did have Adobe Flash Player but went ahead and downloaded it again and still have the same results. Any other suggestions?

Here is the error message I get when clicking next to "Done" at the bottom of the page.

Hi,

What Browser (Make and Version) are you running?

What operating system are you using?

What version of Flash Player is currently installed?

There are several users currently in chat, so this seems as though it is isolated.

P.S. What button next to "Done" are you referring to (sorry, I don't understand).

Thanks,

Ken

I am using Explorer (version 7)

Windows XP

Adobe Flash Player 10 ActiveX

The "done" is at the bottome of the page - I believe it's part of the Explorer program. I get all of the ads and stuff on the right side of the page, just don't get the chat rooms.
