Sports Suck! Chatroom

I've created a chatroom for us all so we can talk to each other in real-time.

Click here (link updated 9th May 2010) to go to the webpage. Enter a username, click connect, wait a moment and the chatroom will pop up.

One last thing -- you'll need Java to use the chatroom. If you've been on the Internet for a while, it's likely you'll have Java installed, already.

Sports Suck! Chatroom

Good job, comrade Skul! I'm there! :)

I signed in at noon and left several messages but then I had to do something and left the window open. I guess you couldn't see all those messages I left because you only see fresh stuff when you log on, eh?
When I returned I saw your entries but you were gone. I'm on right now but I'll be leaving pretty soon.

I've updated the chat a little. I've put some Sports Suck! images on the page, added a sound for when someone enters the chat and implemented actions, like laughing, saying goodbye and even asking to have someone kicked from chat. I also got rid of the useless buttons at the top of the chat -- they didn't do anything. Well, 'Float' worked, but would anyone really use it?

Anyway, check it out! 8)

cool! I like the sound effects --when I logged in there's a sound like a knock at the door. Missed you again though. Is it ready for a link to be added from the main page?

Sure is ready. Me and Fitz had a little chat late last night (well, very early morning for me), so it definitely works. We had a guest member who left the message Nice to meet you (in that format), said nothing afterwards and then left a little later. It was probably a staff member from the chatroom's/webpage's hoster coming to make sure there was nothing inappropriate.

For the user-specific actions -- LOL at User; Goodbye, User; Ask to have someone kicked -- you have to select the user from the list before clicking the action so that their name comes up instead of 'nobody in particular'.

I'm not sure, but I think you can have more than one admin in chat. Ray, do you want me to register your name so you can log in as an admin? Just in case I'm not there and a sports bore comes in and starts mouthing off. I can send you the list of admin commands afterwards.

EDIT: Almost forgot -- when leaving the chatroom, make sure to click the 'X' at the top-right of the chat window so that your name isn't left in the user list.

Sure! Thanks! I need to get in the habit of opening that window and monitoring -I forgot today! :)

lmao im having an interesting conversation on the chat thing with a sports lover... dont know why hes on it, and neither does he... obviously hes realllll smart... its odd... hes a very polite sports idiot... guess he just dosn't have a game to be drooling over at this moment and hes to much of a lazy sports lover to do something productive with his life...... kinda wish i could kick him out lol... im on this chat to much... lol :lol:

I logged into chat about an hour after CHH's post. The instant I appeared, the sports bore ran away! Not so tough, after all, eh? :lol:

It's a nice chat set-up overall.. glad I got to try it. Hope these trolls stay out though.
Apparently I can't get to it from work though. I guess the server has it blocked or something...which is odd seeing as I can use IM services. Oh well. If I'm ever home with free time at the computer, I'll be sure to log on to say Hi to folks.
