new chat feature. (show the love)
Brightbane:
Is there any way we can be able to open more than one channel (at the same time)? The different ones are kind of pointless right now because no one ever goes on anything but the public one. The only way to get a coordinated group of people in one of the channels would be to keep popping back and forth inviting people, and then you'd continually have to do that to make sure that if people came in you could give them the heads up about where everyone is.
Another idea for if you follow through with that (I'm not even sure if this is possible) is that you could only make the dice feature available in the games closet, because it's getting insanely annoying in the public channel.
iago:
Not possible.

But that's precisely how we handled it back in my day, when the internet was a strung-together net of tin cans. :D Seriously, if we wanted to discuss something that was verboten in that room, we either took it to private chat or to another room entirely, and if we wanted latecomers to know where we were, we had to have a designated person popping back and forth to message the original room.
It's not hard.

With the dice rolling, some people who continue doing it have said that if you ask, they'll stop. Because I guess some people don't consider it to be a sticking rule unless Fred says it in his big red moderator voice. Also, there is an option to ignore people, if it gets to be that annoying.
My only complaint so far is that people using the different styles will use fonts to match the one they use, but which is very difficult to read on other styles. Like bright yellow/blue/green being good for the darker/black styles, but headache inducing on lighter styles.
Myyrdn Eopia:
I use the subblack2 theme, and have found that ALL fonts stay the off-white/yellow color, so to mitigate the color issue. So I haven't experienced the color issue. Of course, it could also be dependent upon the web browser you use as well as OS.
