Grateful Dead

Hi marye!! Of course there was NOT another window open....LOL Shame on me if there was...hehe! It's happening to me right now actually. I was in a bit earlier. I lost my internet connection due to some storms in the area. When I came back in, there was a dup account for me in the chatters list. So, techgurl2k1 was there. And, techgurl2k1_dup_A1....or something like that was also there. I refreshed my browser. I have closed out IE completely and opened a new session. I logged out of the site and logged back in, then launched IE. The only thing I have not done is reboot. So, I will try that and I'll come back to the forum. Thanks! Oh, I confirmed with deadheadkid that the IDs are not currently in the chatters list. I was thinking maybe I was holding a connection. thanks!

i'm jonesin' bad fur chat room chats. sumbuddy tell me wots goin' on.....please

when you got that message, was chat in fact running in another window, i.e., when you left the chat did you leave the window open? Just seeing what problem we're addressing here... thanks and furthur!

well there was nobody home when i was there,, it`s diferent to say the least , the smaller letters are hard for me to see ,,my eye`s have been messin with me though,, may just be me .. Take care ..

I agree with reedchris. It's definitely faster. It worked fine while Bear, Pid and I were talking. But, when I left and tried to get back in, it said 'chat is already running in another window'. Not sure what that's about, but grate so far!! Thank you Marye...we miss dead chat soooooooo much!!!

and please keep those reports coming.

chatroom test was a little wierd. it seemed to work a bit faster, and i typed a few bad words to test the waters and recieved no grief. However there was in issue with peoples names being jumbled or added to. Ask gratefulmom, she'll tell you all about it.

Jonathan has been on the lookout for some software that might work a bit better than our local monument to misbehavior, and he's found a likely prospect. Now we need folks to try it out and see how it works under real-life conditions. If this is you, head over here -- http://www.dead.net/testchat -- and chat on!

doing this in blog-post order as you suggest was considered and rejected for a number of reasons. We are, however, urgently aware of the issue of getting people to new posts and are looking at possible solutions.
