Ok....we'll give er a test run here. It's all set. :biggrin:

Down at the bottom of the front forums page, you'll also see a list of who's chatting at any given time. Click on the word "Chat"  that's there to go to the chat channel.
I'll make a new button and add it up top with the rest in a day or two.

This is a java application running on a irc channel. You MAY have to install java if you do not have it installed.
You can have Internet Explorer install the java for you, or you can download it and install it yourself....either or by clicking this link http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp

If you already have java, make sure it's enabled in your browsers options menu.

If your not sure whether or not you have java installed, I'd suggest clicking the chat link out front to see if it lets you through, it'll tell you.

This is a private channel titled FinsandFur. It is fully intergrated with the forums here...so your user names and passwords from the forums will get you in IF your logged into the forums when you click the chat link to go there. No outsiders or guests will be allowed access.

Once your in, it may say you are not allowed to speak, or you are not allowed. Click on the profile button at the top (3rd button from the left) and it will prompt you for your password. Enter your password and your good to go.

If you have any problems getting in, or with any other part of it. Please make a new topic in the Forum issues and questions
forum.

I'm having little problem with the members only part of it. Right now it'll let anyone on.
If I "member only it" it starts giving me fits.
I gave up on it at 3:00 am this morning, and turned member only off.

I'll play around with it some more later today. It's probably not a big deal right now, but eventually were going to want it to be members only, ....other wise I know from previous times were going to have every trailer park hippy with a modem in there, talking smack.

Jim,

Just some info. Last night wehn we were in Chat. I talked to you and Kee until I was blue and thought ya was ignoring me.  :innocentwhistle:

But I did the double window thing and when I was on the main page, it said only I was in Chat.

If'n ya two left me I didn't say other wise and left oyur names in there, and if ya said later to me, it left that part out too.

So I'm glad ya missed my rendition of "One is the loneliest number theres ever beeen"  :biggrin:

FinsnFur

LOL! :roflmao:
No hard feelings?

They may have been having an issue with the IRC server. The last thing I seen was you pop out with a message that said you timed out.

Brent had started ignoring me long before that so then I soon became the lonely one.

I finally said g'night to the walls, and shut r down. :wink:

*Update*

I initially mentioned I'd add a button near the top of the forums for the chat. But in attempt to screen some of the riff raff, (we'll be our own riff raff) I've put the channel into "members only" mode. Which would make that button useless.

Members Only means if you bookmark the link to chat, and try to access it without being logged in to the forums, you won't get in.

It also means that guests visiting our board do not see the chat link or anyone's name on the list who is currently chatting.

For those that aren't aware, you can click the blue text near the bottom of the front page that reads; Chat Stats to go to the Fins and Fur chat channel.
Again...if your not logged in to the forums you will not see the link or the list of participating members.

Why does technology have to be so dang fun? :biggrin:
