 When I click on the "Chat" option at the top of the page the computer screen I'm working on tells me that I need a special plug-in for this option. Are there any experts out there who know how to bypass this?   Undecided

The only plugin you need to see the chat is Adobe Flash. As that is the platform that the chat runs in, if you don't have it installed the chat won't work. You can download Flash here: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/.

Hi. I thought creating a new thread but I figured this thread would be able to answer general chat questions.
So here goes... I accidentally clicked "Chat" instead of "Logout" (they're so close Roll Eyes) and for two days now it's shown that sunflower is "currently in chat" even though I haven't logged on in a while.
It's no big deal but I thought it was interesting and wanted to share.  Smiley

Eek, sorry about that. The chatroom uses a popup window to log you out of the chat program, but if you are the last person in the chat and you have a popup blocker turned on than it can't log you out and you are stuck in there as a zombie user. All it takes is for someone else to go in and than leave and once that new user is logged out the zombie user disappears as well. I usually catch them and make sure that they aren't there for too long, I just missed it this time. You're not listed as in there now.

While we're on the subject, does anyone ever use chat? Seems like a neat little feature, but I never see any "real" members in there.

Great timing on your post, Kevin. Cheesy

I wouldn't mind using the chat more often. I remember when I first joined the forum, I was on there all the time. But sometimes it's about timing. Maybe I'm there, or maybe my zombie doppelganger is there but no one else joins in. Maybe I'm on the forum at the wrong time. Roll Eyes

I"m not really sure. People used to use it a while ago, especially during New Year's Eve. But now hardly anyone goes on- probably due to timing around the world.

That's a good point. We have members from so many different countries, and even from one coast to the other in the US is three hours. Would be kind of cool to get a bunch of us in there on a day when there's big news - a new member, or a Tour announcement, or a DVD release - and chat about it live.

Amy, is your zombie friendly?   Wink
