Chat room

[aklassie]

Same time as before?  4:00p.m Alaska time, 7:00 CST, 8:00 EST?

OK the bug testors heading on over to give it a whirl will send you any reported bugs. If they exist will find them and exterminate

I'd love to join in a chat room.  Problem, Alaskan time is 3 hours earlier the Cen.  6:00 to 7:30 would be 3:00 to 5:30 my time.  I don't get home from work till 6.  Possible to set it up for weekends?

Paul, I can't waite till the chat room is up and running. I don't normaly do chat rooms, put can't waite for this one.
It feels right.

Just thought I would give you an update on how the chat room is progressing.

We have selected the software needed to run the chat room and we are currently testing and configuring! The chat room uses java and a little server side applet to function. What does this mean you say? Well, for one, it is our own chat room, no advertisements nor any service providers!

The software has emoticons, so you can be sure that we will mirror the emoticons we use here. There are sound features and action features. All and all a really nice package. We are currently wrapping the Highlander colors and logos around the software - intregating it into the site. The chat room will be a pop-up webpage that can be minimized so you can browse, listen, email, etc. while you are still in the room. We are also exploring the possibility of having your forum user name as your nick.

My earliest guess for implementing the chat room is before Christmas.

Any time works for me and Paul can you try and put the drink into your drink tray on the front of your system and sending it for me to download to my drink tray.

Just a thought, I haven't checked to see if it's already been suggested, but wouldn't it be a good idea to put a clock on the site so we can tell what your time is.  That way folk from all over the world will know what time it is in your part.  

P.S. Where are the clickable Santas

   Missed all,except Scottish2, in chat room Sun.  Shall we try it again this coming Sunday???        

[scottish2]

Yeah 8PM EST on Sunday works for me.

I was also thinking for those that can make it maybe also a Monday night session also at 8 PM EST if anyone can make it just for New Years Eve.

Just wanted to let everyone know that the chat room is progressing nicely! We just added all 24 emoticons to the chat room. Working on help menus, sounds and actions. If you get chance to check it out, would appreciate some feedback and a litte bug testing!

Thanks!

[scottish2]

Yeah same here weekend works best for me just do to things I do during the week.

Also which chatroom were you refering to? Was it the one on my site or did Paul add one that I missed? Just want to make sure everyone can find it once we do set a time.

In case mine here is a link if people want to use it anyways, if on Highlander Radios Where can we find teh link as I can't seem to see it.

I didn't. Watched Star Trek Enterprise (Yes I'm a Trekie  ) then messed on line some then hit the rack was dead beat oh plus fiddle with picture of Uncle Joe for you.

[kylassie]

Y'all can rest assured that I am doing my part to spread the word about this site! I see that people whom I know through other message boards are listed as members now. When will our first chat party begin?

[kylassie]

I am ssoooooooo ready to try the chat room out! Shall we test it out this weekend? Alaska says 2:00 in the afternoon (6:00 EST) is okay, while we were thinking 10:00 EST (6:00 Alaska Time) - let's compromise between the two?

How about 4:00 pm Alaska Time, which is 7:00pm Kentucky Time, and 8:00 pm Eastern Time. (I think! - All of this math is giving me a headache!)  If you live in in some other part of the world, reading this, you will just have to figure out what time it is for yourself I am afraid.

I plan to check the chat room out at 7:00 pm Saturday and Sunday and see if anyone else is there to chat with?

[aklassie]

I'd say start out in the Highlander.  Keep fingures and toes crossed that I have no problems.  

[scottish2]

As far as I know at this point and time I'll be there hope we have a good group to help bring in the new year> We can also try for a Monday eve maybe for new years eve if anyone is up for it let us all know I'll be home so...
