Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone had tried The Chat Room yet.

I want to make sure it's working before I go on my little holiday.

i can try it sarutday, not sure i can do it before

okay, I guess I can't be subtle about it...SOMEONE please come in the chat room for just a second so I can make sure it works!

I gotta go finish getting packed and then I have to go get oil changed and pick up some photos from my finisher....etc.

Just want to make sure all is in working order before I skeedaddle!

AAC I've just tried but it says my web browser's not coompatible... sorry! (dammit!) I've got IE

If the English language made any sense, a catastrophe would be an apostrophe with fur.

I can't reach it either in Moz or Opera. Something to do with the '#' in the URL maybe?

Edit: That was going straight from the WN link. Going from the link at the top of the thread, I can get to the initial page but it doesn't seem to want to load any applets even though it says it's trying.

argh!
the number is just a reference and that shouldn't be what's blocking it.

It's just java based...just like playing an online game.
Alison, which browser are you using??

I'm really trying hard to make this site as browser friendly as possible, and I test it in various versions of IE an Netscape. Opera doesn't like my computer for some reason, so I don't really do that one, but I am not understanding why stuff isn't working right! ARGH!!

Internet Explorer version hang on a sec

YAY, the chat room works.

For folks having problems, it's probably something in the way your browser uses Java. Might think about getting the latest version of whatever browser you're using. Sorry I can't be of more assistance.

Cheers. Have fun!

No one there but us chickens, had a scratch around, got lonely and came back

oh geez, you JUST missed us...Sarah, Magda, Ptolemy and I were in there for about 20 minutes :)

If you want to set up an impromptu chat, just post it in a new topic...I bet there will be takers!

I can't get in either, same message

I gather more recent windows products don't work well with some Java based things

I'll get Rhys (who is here now) to have a look see if there are any patches

Sylvester says.... *plock*




actually he says peep, cheep, chirrup, squalk,muttermuttergrumblegrumble, oh and now he falls off his pirch whish is followed by a sheepish peek round to see if anyone was looking and a quick scramble back up

FWIW, I'm using Windows XP and IE 6.0, and I got in fine.

Takes ages to load because I have to use a separate Java Software. I'm getting there...

Ok, forget it, I can't get in. The Java window appears but that's it. :( Too bad.

Well, the official grand opening was to be at 8pm London time. I was there. Jon was there. That was it. We chatted for about half an hour while watching the tumbleweeds blow by.

Ah well. I'm there now, but it's pretty bloody quiet. There's just me ranting to myself.

btw, I'm using XP and IE 6.0

This is the work of an Italian narco-anarchic collective. Don't bother insulting them, they can't read English anyway.

Just tried it and I can get in with no problem. I'm also XP and IE 6.0.
