A couple of updates to the site

I've decided to share the wealth a bit, and used some of my recent winnings to buy us a chat room...

You'll see a bar at the bottom of every screen...that's the chat room bar. Click on "Chat Rooms" and chat away. You can also hide this bar by clicking on the arrow on the far right.

Supposedly, you can video chat with this thing...let me know if you try this and if it's successful.

I've also eliminated the background image for everyone. It distracted some people, and we don't want that. Plus most of the image is obscured by the message board itself, so it wasn't very practical to begin with.

Have fun out there!

is there any way that you can add an audio notification if you are following a thread? i know its not a big deal to add it in for all the posts, but i was more interested in having it for selected threads.

Wow! I read that wrong.
I though you put in a BAR in the chatroom!

I clicked to hide the bar before I read this, now I don't see how get it back?

Thanks for the upgrades - very much appreciated!

Well, it shouldn't be completely visible when you hide the bar. There should still be a small box on the far right to click again to get it back.

A chat room isn't a chat room without you, so get in there!

For me, posts are easier to read than they were with the picture of horses coming out of the gate in the background.

Click on the left arrow that remains in the lower right corner when you hide the chat room bar and the chat room bar will reappear.

On my Android phone, it should show up as a small white box in the lower right corner without the option to hide it.

I don't know what happens or what to do on an Ick-Phone.

I think it only shows the posts made in the last 30 minutes...if you go in there and there hasn't been any posts in the last 30 minutes, you see nothing...

I can change this, but I figure a 30 minute old conversation isn't worth much...

On an iPhone (using Chrome browser at least), I get a special mobile version of the chat room...haven't played with it much though.

PA,
I was reviewing the archive for the thread "Clipboard"
#39106 under Forum "Selections"...something strange occurred on day 04-08-2017 at 7:10 PM....

There was a massive script roll that got recorded onto the archive for the thread...I was wondering if you could tell what that was all about...?
Was that a harmful "bug" that got implanted into the post...?

Page 8, Post 115
