Maybe I am just losing it or my browser is messed up but today when I went onto the chat I noticed the chatbot seems to annouce people entering the room now, and we lost a lot of options in the chat. I can't change things like my chat colour.

I also am no longer getting sound notifications which is not the best since I didn't always keep the window visible and would listen for the chat noises.

Any idea what is going on?
 
There was an update to the Chat software that I applied earlier. But not being familiar with what Chat options there were before, I'd suggest contacting one of the Chat mods to see if they can remedy this?
 
I do not know who the chat mods are. Froid?

But the list of problems/changes so far is that:
- Missing almost all of the previous chat options
- No more chat sound notifications
- The wrapping of text is broken and is wrapping chat messages right in the middle of words making reading harder
- Can't change the colour of our chat messages
- Bot announces when people are in the chat (this is fine though)
 
I can't seem to find a chat admin/mod to get ahold of. Would like this resolved, it is quite annoying now.
 
Chat also isn't auto updating when someone types in a new message. I have to hit refresh (f5) on my browser for the chat log to update...

At first I thought it was just my iPad being buggy, but I've tried it on my laptop with 3 different browsers and it's the same on each.

I don't see where these options are disabled? Maybe log out and log back in?

I don't see what the issue with this is. It appears to work just fine using Google Chrome.

I don't see what the issue with this is. It appears to work just fine using Google Chrome.

Yet I am currently in the chat room, my name is not showing up on the users list, and I couldn't see your "testing" message until I hit the refresh button on my browser (currently using Chrome as well).

:idk:
 
Maybe log out and back in?
