Problem with Chat Box

Post by ~threadbear~ »

Is anyone else having a problem with the chat box or just me?
I've always had it comng up with a flood error if I try to post again straight after sending one message, but now it says it is sending a message and it never actually posts, or I have to refresh sometimes to see if my message has posted (sometimes it does, sometimes it wont) but other times it's not too bad.

Just wondering if anyone else is having this as its a bit :x at times!

I'm glad it's not just me. I wonder if Alex could look at it for us? Please?

Did anyone PM him so that he knows of the problem and can try to get it diagnosed

Thanks.

It's working for me again at the moment as well C-F. Earlier it was playing up, then its fine.
It's not predicable.

I think we now have the chatbox up and running again, :x:

We had to take the forum offline today as there was a posibbility that we would have to reload this mornings back up. However I think we've got the shoutbox up and working again without that.

If you find any new problems or issues with it please pm me or alex and we'll look into it. We don't know if this update will fix the lag you seem to be having, if it dosen't we might try removing some of the older posts quicker from the chat box, so it will only go backa few days rather than a few weeks.

Anyway, back to work... 8)

Hmm, I just tested it now and it was okay? I notice its a little messy in IE6 but it should be fine in Firefox. Do you know what version you are using?
