Having Chatroom Issues?

[IEunuch]

There has been a bit of a shift in things behind the scenes, so....

If you have any issues with the chat room, please contact me, either here or via email, at: ieunuch@gmail.com

i am sure that i do nothing wrong or false.

Hello IEunuch, Yes I have had consistent difficulties with the chatroom for about a month now.
I am timed out after 5 minutes. I have tried many times to type in the sentence in the start up menu but has no effect.
Whilst in the chatroom the two button top right do not function.
Any suggestions please?

Kyle

Not able to get into chat because the java applet signature is not accepted.

Is there a way to join the chat without having to use java within a web browser? Can I do it with an irc client? If I can, what information do I need (server address/ip address/etc)?

[IEunuch]

Yes, you absolutely can use an IRC client. You're going to want to connect to: darkstar1.tzo.com, port 6667.

Thank you! I had looked, but couldn't find the info

I have not been able to log into the chat room for some months now...

All I get is the following 5 lines of message:

[11:00] Connecting...
[11:00] Logging in...
[11:00] --*** If you are having problems connecting due to ping timeouts, please type /notice xxxxxxxxxxx nospoof now.
[11:00] Error: Closing Link: Luke[~Luke@xx.xx.xxx.xx] (K-Lined: Luke - Assisertative Lissathropy)
[11:00] Disconnected from Darkstar1.tzo.com

(note: I edited the IP info from the feedback for security reasons)


WTF is going wrong? Is this in my computer or is the chatroom broken?

[IEunuch]

Ah yes... 'Assisertative Lissathropy'... we get that one popping up every so often. Unfortunately it means that at some point you broke (badly) one of the rules we have in the chatroom, and so were banned from it.

Oh, dear... it would be nice to at least know what rule I might have broken. Though not a prolific user of the chat, I thought that I had been a complete gentleman when visiting. Don't recall ever having the slightest disagreement or confrontation with anyone, nor do I spam. How would one appeal this, make ammends or at least find out what I did that was so bad?

I'm having a similar issue and never had issues before. My error reads:

*** If you are having problems connecting due to ping timeouts, please type /notice 13577080533 nospoof now.
Closing Link: ...[...] (K-lined: medstudent)

I was allowed to sign on as recent as last month.

It's also possible that you have an IP number close to one that got banned at one time, and that ban took 'you' out too, in addition to the one it was supposed to ban. Just a thought for IE there to consider.

[MacTheWolf]

To any that ask, Yes, the chat room is temporarily offline. I assure the management is working quickly to remedy the problem so please be patient. It will be fixed as soon as possible.

[MacTheWolf]

What did I tell ya, it's fixed already. See, IEunuch is a genius. Paolo and Kristoff aren't slouches either.

And they said I shouldn't have taken that Brown-nosing 101 class :P

The problem should be fixed now.... at least I think it should be. Let me know if it's not.

And today's little bit of offline was due ot a power outage. Don't know why it went out, but it did.
