Yet another attempt at an FG chatroom. Registered members can enter the chat from the new link on the main menu bar.

Some features (images and files) have been disabled for security reasons, but it should work for basic text chatting. You can click on someone's name to send them a private message.

It's Flash-based and Flash 8 is recommended. (Check your Flash version here (http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/))

Post questions and errors in this thread.

IRC-style commands:

/away Sets user as away. Typing this command again sets user as "here".
/here Sets user as here. This reverses the "away" and "busy" states.
/busy Sets user as busy. Typing this command again sets user as "here".
/back Shows the last entries of the room's chat, including any chat text that was present before arrival to the room.
/backtime Shows the last minutes of the room's chat, including any chat text that was present before arrival to the room.
/clear Clears the chat screen. This only affects your screen, not the screen of other users.
/me <action> Issues an IRC-like "action" to the chat. "/me" will be changed to your user name, and the text in <action> will appear as a system message. For example: "/me is thinking" would translate to "Joe is thinking".
/join <room> Switches the user to <room>. For example: "/join The Lounge"
/part Logout of the chat.
/quit Logout of the chat.
/logout Logout of the chat.
/version Shows which version of the chat you are using.
/invite <user> Invites "user" to the room that you are currently in.
/ignore <user> Ignores "user" until /unignore "user" is issued
/? Display a list of currently available IRC commands.
/helpall Display a list of all available IRC commands.
/whowas <user> Shows profile page for any registered user.
/whois <user> Same as /whowas, but the user must be logged in.
/sos <message> Alerts moderator in the current room of your message. Message text is optional. Message behaves like an /alert
/names Shows a list of all user names in all public rooms.
/showignores Shows who you are ignoring, and who is ignoring you.

There needs to be a notification or something on the top so we can see who is in there without having to enter chat first.

Also, is it irc compatible?

Nope. One of the previous chat systems I tried was IRC-based and no one could get in past their office firewalls.

Yeah, this would have saved CS the embarrassment of signing in, seeing nobody there but boring ol' Omae Mona, and not-so-subtly stepping back out before a word could be uttered. Twice. Hmmmmph!

(just kidding CS.. I'm not in a chatty mood anyway. But I did enjoy the Jetsons theme that played when you entered the room).

As GuyJean said, there is a chat user list at the bottom of the main forum page:

its always empty when i pop in there (which has been only about 3 times
till now)...

its would be handy if there was a number in brackets indicating how many people are in 'Chat' next to the tab at the top of the page
- i never scroll all the way down to the bottom to see whose online or 'whats going on?'
