Ok folks..

since we've had some issues with the video chat, we've reimplemented the TFP chatroom link that is in IRC. You can still use your IRC client to get into it, or you can just click the link on the navbar at the top.

It's time to revive the chat room so go ahead and jump in.. there's only a few trout being thrown around.

Cynthetiq

yes... please join us.

It has been a fun friday night so far!

just a quick note.. if you enter the room and nobody is talking, we aren't ignoring you. Alot of times people are idle and not paying attention to the screen. So if you go in, just stay for a spell and it shouldn't take long before a convo is started.

Cynthetiq

Join me for lunch March 12, 2009 12PM - 4PM EST.

Log on from your desk, office, coffee shop... where ever!

Soooo...I'm in there now, and it's showing 14 people... but no chatting going on. Is it just really quiet, or am I not connecting properly? Grrrr.

Edit-- never mind. Just read gucci's post. Also noticed that today is NOT the 25th, so not the "official" lunch chat. Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain...

Y'know... every time I go into chat, I see the same names, and they're never listed as "online" on the main page. Names stuck, perhaps?

wooÐs

I can't seem to log into chat. Just keeps loading...

genuinegirly

Might be your firewall settings.

I haven't been able to log in since I got my "new" laptop two years ago. Not sure what settings I have messed up.

Do you use IRC? You can access it there. Give me a few minutes, let me see if I can't hunt up another way for you to get in...

Nah, I haven't dl'd irc on this computer. Was hoping I could just use Java.

genuinegirly

One of our admins, Cyn, passed this on:

I was able to connect via mibbit.com
Mibbit.com - Easy and fast Webchat

irc.shadowfire.org look up SHADOWFIRE (webirc) in the drop down
use your nickname
channel: #tfp

Edit: I just logged on this way. It works just fine.

Yeah I thought about Mibbit. Haven't tried it just yet. Maybe I'll give it a go tomorrow. I'm attempting to wind down for the evening.
Er... morning.

genuinegirly

What time zone are you in, anyway?
It's nearly three here - I should get to bed soon.

Aaaah! I see you in there, GG, but it's saying I can't send? This is frustrating.

genuinegirly

Hm. That's odd. I wish I were better at this trouble-shooting thing.

Yummy Georgia peaches.. mmmm.

Heading to bed. Great to have you on the board - See you around!

Thanks!

You don't have to be on TFP to be in the chat room. They're mutually exclusive, so you can be in one and not the other or both at the same time.

48 members online, and only 2 in the chatroom? C'mon, people.

Fine! But I don't like sitting in there talking to myself.

It's like when I ride the metro.

Huh. Did anyone else just get kicked out of the chatroom? It's not letting me back in. I am not happy with this. :/

It sounds like it might be the Mibbit web client... can you get your hands on a stand alone IRC client? Check the TFP Chat Guide thread

You know what's awesome? Since the chat has been doing so well, it's like the stick that seemed to be up this place's butt has gotten a little smaller. That's a good thing.

sometimes that's just called "getting to know you". Once you get to know people, they lose that "stick" or it gets just a little bit smaller.

because there's plenty of stick...or at least the perception of stick.

You're right of course, Cyn, but the chat has been a nice stick lube.
