Is there something that can be done about the lag in chat? We keep getting Connection Error 502 messages and things of the sort. Any ideas?

I'm getting server error about every third time I bring up the regular forums.

We're in the process of upgrading the forum.  This might be the cause of the current issues at hand.

Hi there DB. Sorry to be a bother, but we're having some other issues in chat. First of all, we're having SEVERE lag. Also, the dem thing keeps booting us out, or not letting us in at all!!! Is there something that can be done?

I've put in a different chat system. Try it and let me know what you think. It doesn't have all of the features of the other one and it's not "real time" but you can set the refresh to what you want. Five seconds is the minimum. There is another one I'm looking at but it's much harder to integrate so I'm doing it on a test site first. Once I'm sure it's going to work OK I'll let you test that one also.

Thanks,

This one is not good, so far at least! For some reason it doesn't display my whole name, even though it does display longer names, and I can't even fix it in the log in screen. It also doesn't flash the tab top when someone leaves, enters otrthe chat, so if you're reading the boards you miss people when they drop in.

The new chat system is just temporary.  Tom put it into place so there would be something to use until the real chat system is in place.

Then I guess it will work in the mean time... and I'm thankful we have it!
