The new Chat room

Noticed today, that there is no time-out on chat.
Like the other chats had.

Meaning someone could have logged on hrs ago, and went to bed or doing other things, but is still in chat.
if the person didn't log out or closed the window.

But, other then that, no complaints.... well maybe one :
That the chat opens it's new window, like the others have done. That would be nice, too.
I don't know that I can set a time to expire the session for inactive users, still trying to figure out how...

I set up the chat tab to open in a small window. We can test it, not sure if I like it or not...

I really don't see what the big deal is if you time out of chat or not. It has no effect on the operation of chat. I do like this new chat.

I didn't know where to put this question......About the new sub-forum, 'Media', how come when a post is made, it immediately locks the thread?

I am just guessing but it may be so that nothing other than videos can be posted there. In other words, no one can post comments on the videos themselves, which is not the purpose of the thread. As I said I am just guessing.

Can't get into chat with AOL (yes I use it, no comments please!) or Internet Explorer. Frustrating. I don't want to have to download anything else to get in. Guess i'm out.
Aww why are you so against trying new stuff?

There is a link that says "view and comment", or something like that. You'll see the video, and right below you can post a comment.

Sometimes it's better to not let people know but don't worry about it ... I still have a rotary telephone and a typewriter. :wink2:

PS - you would not believe what they were saying about you in the Chat Room the other night.
