Live Chat every Sunday 7PM ET

Kevin, you shouldn't "idle". GG-1 got kicked off for idling.

I idled for quite a while (ate dinner then showered and washed my hair) and did not kicked off.

I think when they fixed the limit of 12 that also got fixed. I do not remember anyone reporting a 9 character limit last week so I am sure this will be taken care of by next week

I remember last week when Betty couldn't fit her whole name. I think she finally used "AmtraBlue" or something like that, and Alan made an Alanism about how "Amtrak has to save any "K" it can"!

Eric,

No, that problem with short names existed just last Sunday which was the first week of operation for chat after the transfer. I haven't heard that it has been fixed yet.

 

[AmtrakBlue]

Actually, I think I dropped the "a" before the "k" last week just like I did last night because I can't afford to be dropping $k's.

 

[Ryan]

Yeah, the character limit is still there, AmtrakWolverine's name was truncated.

 

[AlanM]

I can check about increasing character limit for member names.

Is there any possibility of having a widget included along the edge of the website showing the current or most recent conversation?

I would not like that, myself. I'd feel people were eavesdropping.

Same here. And if you were not in chat, what would it matter? I participate in chat, and by the time I type my reply and hit "enter" - sometimes 2-5 different subjects could be in between my reply and the original question I was replying to.

So, no I personally would not like that.

Good point. It's confusing enough when I'm logged in and am somewhat following the different conversations.

 

[amtrakwolverine]

I´m having issues trying to get in. First when trying it from the phone I kept getting data error and now trying from the laptop I keep getting max clones reached for your IP and I even tried another name GRRR.

 

[AmtrakBlue]

All but Misty and Alan got hung up/knocked out. I had to use the link on AU to get back in.

 

[bbecker258]

Tried to find chat today, no luck, help please!
