Question about the chatroom

[tickleteasing]

If this is the wrong place I apologize but when I try to log in the chatroom it says I need a java enabled browser, however when I go in the new chatroom the one with the video on it everything works fine. I thought the forum had only one chat room not two and got rid of one.

The Java chatroom is the main one, but is currently down (I believe). The new A/V room is the backup room, used when the main chatroom is down.

That's a good thing. 🙂

What I have found is that there are pros and cons to both chat rooms. The A/V room's pros is that, once you add someone to your block list, they stay blocked even after you've been gone and come back. Even after you sign out and come back. 😀 In the DigiChat, however, that isn't so; if someone so much as signs out and signs back in, they are bumped off of your ignore list. It's a shame, really. 🙄

In the A/V room, private chatting with people is more difficult because you do not have the separate window option, but rather you have to type the user's name in brackets <TangerineTicklee> like so, to send them whispers, and whisper back and forth. It makes the A/V seem more like a social, open place, and less of a secret-like place, but in all actuality, it is still rather reclusive because of the fact that barely anyone ever goes there.

A bit of the best of both worlds, it seems. 🙂
